Title: The European Commission 🙄
Post by: Alex on January 28, 2023, 01:12:42 AM
The Commission has given permission for insects to be added to foodstuffs such as bread, biscuits, pizza and chocolate products.   The label will read "Acheta Domesticus" so yesterday was one of the final steps in the procedure for authorising lesser mealworm and partially defatted powder obtained from house cricket as a food.

Glad we're out, but aren't we still aligned with EU regs on foods  ?

I had a bolt in a lasagne, took it to Tesco, got £20 voucher. Got what looked like a maggot in the rice with some ready meal, took it to trading standards, never heard anything.

I bought some crispy duck from Asda a while ago and was looking forward to it.  It was so bad that I altered the box to read 'slimy duck' and took it back.  They were very good, refunding the cost and giving me a voucher.

Well seeing as to how Bill Gates owns about 99% of the production of this vile alternative to food it's hardly surprising. His 'bribes' in conjunction with Goldman Sachs, the WEF's bankers will assure kids in Europe (and it's siamese twin the UK) will have a bag of Grasshoppers and Chafers for their lunch soon. They'll come back to post prandial class with hairy legs poking out of their gobs, ready to learn that Shakespeare and Churchill were racists. Brave New World ...

I don't need to be Mystic Meg to see the future very well.  

15 minute cities that you are only allowed to leave on allocated days of the year, no private cars except if you are rich you will have the roads to yourself, digital currencies where exceeding your carbon quota leads to your bank accounts being frozen, big brother knows every penny you spend and where, only allowed a house suitable for the size of your family, your heating limited to a few hours a day, your travelling limited, no men, no women we are all non binary now, food allowances, no meat, no dairy, slimy meat alternative and bugs for the protein.  Have I missed anything? oh yes, no alternative views to that of the World woke government, dessenters will be severely delt with. 

Sounds far fetched? it's coming.

At last and almost too late, decent uncomplicated  people are beginning to understand the 'group-washing' of brains that the WEF and other globalists have successfully achieved, in recent times. Through their 'Pandemic' global dictatorship, where the State knew best was eventually destruction tested and their initial delight turned to despair as the false statistics that were universally accepted at the beginning as sanguine advice, descended to the abysmal congeries of unproven propaganda. The sleazeball Hancock, or as they say over here, 'Bummer' with his hapless and inaccurate forecasters at one time had the majority of people of the UK literally hanging on to every lie they uttered. These evil people are everywhere and we must remain vigilant to their claims of so called 'Reality' from hereon.

I stopped believing the ridiculous predictions of the modellers very early on. None of it was remotely believable. The covid response coupled with nett zero is why our economy is a basket case right now and my final years will be considerably less financially sound than they would have been.
