Experts warn of risk of civil unrest in UK due to food shortages | ScienceDaily
Food shortages caused by extreme weather could lead to civil unrest in the UK, according to a new study which has surveyed some of the country’s leading food experts.
You're viewing a single thread.
A key piece of data missing from the title "eventually a possibility" - it's an interesting article but gosh is that title misleading.
I was about to ask if there really is a shortage. Not from UK but I worry for people.
There's not a shortage in stores, to my knowledge, but I directly know a large number of people struggling to make ends meet. Multiple people being made homeless due to gas and electric bills, or building their life schedules around opportunities to get a free or cheap meal because even people with jobs are feeling the pinch.
So mostly what many others elsewhere in the world are experiencing, it just feels extra grim because much of the problems can be directly attributed to the Tory government who are currently in power. They're almost certainly going to be voted out next year, but I wonder whether it'll be possible to repair the damage that's been done since 2010.
I'm not sure how it's possible seeing as food is too expensive for most people now
I mean... the title is pretty clear; it's a 'warning' of a 'risk', not an announcement of the current situation. A risk is a possibility, and a warning of a risk must come before it is unfolding.
The tile 'warns' of a 'risk' of civil unrest. It implies a food shortage is happening or imminent.
I disagree, "Experts warn of oil shortage due to Hamas-Isreali conflict" seems like a perfectly reasonable headline to see today and would certainly imply a timely concern.
