The fair trade and environmental lobbies are the biggest hypocrites and some of the most anti-British movements in existence.
How often do we hear the green lobby protesting about food miles, carbon footprints and the sourcing of goods locally? Well these are the very same people who say we should be buying fair trade (and therefore imported) food ahead of what can, in some cases, be produced nearer to home without the added problem of "food miles".
For example, it is possible to buy sugar which has been produced in the UK, but the green brigade is trying to get local councils and other organisations to use fair trade sugar, which must be imported! What about all those food miles and the carbon footprint produced by importing all that sugar? Honey is another example of food which we can produce locally but the fair trade lobby believes we should all be using their imported version.
The green lobby also believe in making more housing available, but that would mean building on land which is currently undeveloped and therefore would damage the environment. They are big supporters of immigration and do not believe that minority communities should be forced to adhere to the culture of the dominant community (no mention of the fact that the indigenous population of the UK is expected to bend over backwards to accommodate other cultures and laws and beliefs!)
As for pollution, the green brigade blames the hated West for the global warming problem. No mention of the damage done to the environment by the burning of rainforests in Asia and South America, and the high levels of pollutants emitted by countries such as India and China! And what about the destruction of the environment to provide so-called biofuels! Instead of growing food crops, these monstrosities are being grown instead!
We should be supporting our own farmers and producers. Buy British sugar, British honey, British meat and anything else labelled as British.
