Excellent expert panel discussion just now on Farming Today on salad shortages and the underlying infrastructure and labour availability issues affecting our food supply. (Clue: It's not just weather, and brexit gets liberal mentions).
Will be available shortly here https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006qj8q/episodes/player

1) High-paid locals only do CO2e neutral (no paper trail) #consultancy and #management.
2) Anybody who actually produces #deliverables in any way is a high-paid #expat.
3) Low-wage work is exclusively done by #immigrants and #seasonalWorkers.
So here’s my question:
WHAT DOES THE FUCKING SILENT MAJORITY DO ALL FUCKING DAY OTHER THAN PLAYING WITH THEIR FUCKING GENITALS???!!11!1?!?

If you are interested in #RuralLife, #CulturalHeritage and #Farmlife this online #exhibition of #photographs and #poetry about #hop workers in #GreatBritain by @paulligas is a #mustwatch. Click the links for #history and how #Brexit changes all.
I live on the border of a famous hop region in France (Northern Alsace) and am impressed by how sensitively the #people have been portrayed.
