I will be signicantly changing my eating habits. I am trying to think about reducing meat consumption positively but I am really quite gutted.
I try and eat relatively little meat and fish at the moment anyway, but if they remove or change the food origin labelling requirements to any significant degree (i.e. to disguise where gooseberry fool food has come from) I'd switch things up to local farm produce or something.
It's just one thing after another with this government. It'd be laughable if it wasn't so utterly depressing. And you can't even put it down to incompetence. It's wilful disregard for the rules, one rule for them and another for the plebs, constant back-tracking on pledges and promises made, a staggering level of arrogance...the list goes on.
