What a moment yesterday, launching the Right to Food Commission’s report and roadmap.
The report sets out clearly why 14 million people across the UK are food insecure and the political decisions needed to reverse this national scandal.
It has been one of the greatest honours of my life to listen to communities across the country and work alongside our brilliant commissioners and team to make this report a reality.
Our communities cannot continue living under the scourge of hunger. It is utter madness to damage the future of our country by refusing to confront poverty and the social devastation that it causes right across the UK.
Not to mention the monumental economic costs as a result of food insecurity and people not eating well.
The Prime Minister has rightly called for a change of path after 40 years of failed neoliberalism. There is no greater example of that failure than the fact over 14 million of our people are insecure about food.
Our report captures exactly why that change is so urgently needed.
We now look forward to working with the Prime Minister and the Government to deliver a Right to Food for all.

The time for state-supported social eating is now: we must revive the traditions of National Kitchens & British Restaurants, creating welcoming places where everyone can eat affordable, nutritious food without stigma, says Prof BRYCE EVANS @drbryceevans

We actually had a version of this in the UK a hundred years ago, they were called British Restaurants. True story. We should bring them back.

Next week marks the 110th anniversary of the tragic death of 18-month-old Herbert Lemass who was accidentally shot dead by his brother Seán Lemass in January 1916. As Lemass's daughter Maureen Haughey remarked a century later, Herbert Lemass was the first casualty of 1916. Here's a great Irish diary on the subject by @FrankmcnallyIT in today's paper and online. It also covers the death in 1916 of the other Herbert Lemass. irishtimes.com/opinion/an-ir…

What a bloody brilliant midfielder Alan McLoughlin was. The sort of player that this current #Pompey team are crying out for.
Still watch these videos back & find it tough that we can’t reminisce over his many big moments.

Delighted to share here a trailer of our recent filming-project 'The Arandora Star Sinking'. It's a documentary about memories of the tragedy by third-generation Italians in Liverpool.
Many thanks to all those involved in the filming production.
