Actually, I have not quite said that. I have criticised the policies which have left us unable to produce enough food to feed ourselves, but that has been going on for decades. The "just in time" supply chains favoured by multinationals also have a lot to answer for - they maximise profits until it goes wrong and then the general population suffers.
How is it possible that the single best defence against this thing is to wash your hands but there is no soap available? It seems that there are more vital national interests than we realised.
