Why is there acute hunger in the UK and what is to be done about it?

Birmingham Food Council Director and member of the Fabian Society’s Commission on Food and Poverty, John Middleton, has published interesting insights on food poverty in a bmj blog.

John talks about the future of food banks; modern malnutrition; the broken food system; and the need to raise the status of food, food security and food poverty.

The full blog can be read here.
