I would just like to highlight the point about fishing in this country as an example of the maddness of food export. We currently export British Pollock to countries like Poland whilst we inport Alaskan Pollock (breaded and frozen) to our supermarkets! Lets hope they don't do the same with our veg. I used to shop at unicorn and miss it greatly. Why aren't there more places like Unicorn with it's fantastic ethos.
Bring back the pick your own farms where you could get a lift on the tractor to the potato or sweet corn stop, pick your own barn eggs (free range farm) and the likes. Do they still exist anywhere in the country, other than for strawberries and razzers?
