Actually it's not just about poverty,it is as much about waste as well.

It's the best idea since plebs were last able to scamper for scraps from the table of the toffs. We're already eating their horse meat (and whatever else), we may as well chomp on other food they reject.

I think it's nice though that Boris has given us a shop to buy from so that the usual retailer, the town dump, isn't embarrassed by British people clambering for a loaf.

Actually if it's the same company shop near Sheffield then public sector staff can join it as i work for the nhs and I'm a member. To be fair I didn't think it all to be that cheap on some stuff only saving 15p. But there are some other bargains

Public sector pay has been frozen for years and is likely to continue being so. The paucity of the 'living wage' of public sector service qualifies you to get grub in the reject shop. Great.

Still, plebs wouldn't like the haute cuisine that Boris enjoys.

More like a catering sized bag of McCain's.....

When I worked at Asda if the packaging of any item was damaged, as long as the product itself was still fresh and and unharmed it was instantly reduced to a third of the price regardless of whether or not it was no longer profitable. It could have all gone on to ideas like this.

Great idea. The "poor" can keep up their mobile phone contracts, cable TV XXL packs, XL BB and still feed their offspring. :dozey:

your not wrong there the biggest packages are in the so called poorest areas and any thing less than a 50 " tv is frowned upon -coupled with fags at £8 a pack there's no money for food .

You come across as the biggest stereotype of them all...;)

Flippantly pointless :sleep:. I thought the idea was to exchange views on the subject matter?

And look, now you've gone and encouraged Russ to...ahem...chip in. Groan.
