Warehouse capacity in the UK might not sound like the most thrilling topic for a column. But you *really* need to know about it. Please read and share the article. Time is running out, and we urgently need action to avert what could be a total disaster.
Thanks.

Food traders will have to build reserves, now and in December, to cover the likely shortfall in January. This means warehouse capacity. One minor hitch: there isn’t any. “The situation will quickly become critical.”

A question: given the government's total failure to discharge its duty of care, what should our response be? Would stockpiling food at home now help take the pressure off supplies in January? Or would it cause further problems? Thoughts please.
