Hi Charles!

This is what I can find:

France’s law for fighting food waste

Do Supermarkets Give Away Unsold Food in France?

French supermarkets banned from throwing away and spoiling unsold food

I notice that Google is blocking some of these links – so I had to access through Bing. In early 2014, the US supported the Neo-Nazi take-over of Ukraine. This led to the US demanding the EU foot the bill for the military operation against the breakaway Russian Republics. Prices started to climb throughout the EU – with the UK voting to “Leave” the EU in 2016 (the year France passed this law). As the UK failed to vote-in a left-wing Labour government (led by Jeremy Corbyn) – the right-wing Conservatives just carried-on acting as if the UK was still in the EU and initiated every US requirement.

Nothing changed during Trump Part I with Cobid-19 limiting his first term (although there was the Tigraw invasion). Biden increased the financial burden on the EU whilst withdrawing from Afghanistan in preparation for the Russian military entering the war against Ukrainian Neo-Nazism. Meanwhile, millions of West (Catholic) Ukrainians were allowed into the EU and UK (even though we had left the EU) – with each Ukrainian individual and family being given free houses, new cars, ample supplies of money, free medical care, and education, etc, as well as instant employment (all the far-right stereotypes come to life) The fact that their government supported the ideology of Hitler was ignored.

This further impoverished the UK and EU economies (the Conservatives in the UK also imported tens of thousands of Hong Kong rioters post-2021 – giving these incomers the same support as Ukrainians). Obviously, homelessness and extreme poverty throughout the UK and EU has increased dramatically since 2014 – which has led to an empowerment of the far-right (the left is dead in the water). The far-right, being Hitlerite, oddly welcomes the “White” Ukrainians and has little say about the riotous Hong Kongers (the far-right agrees with this attack on Socialist China) – but continue to aim their anger and hatred against Asians, Arabs, and Africans, etc.

I suspect supermarkets in the UK giving away free food at closing time (food that would be thrown-away) might be a policy prevented to stop Parliament passing a law requiring supermarkets to do this involuntarily.

It is incredible to think that prior to 2010 in the UK – there had been no food-banks. The rolling back of Socialism on all fronts is creating intense poverty – but chosen incoming groups (not all) are being perceived as receiving preferential treatment – leading to the strengthening of the far-right. The Labour government not only forcibly deported 600 Brazilians (I wasn’t even aware Brazilians lived here as incomers – with some reports stating the number returned to Brazil could be as high as 10,000) but removed (cancelled) the British citizenship of Brazilian children born in the UK – so that they could all be deported with their parents as families! This is how Kier Starmer dealt with the problem of what the far-right terms “anchor children” – or those children who gain British citizen by being born to incoming parents (that is parents not born in the UK). I suspect this is illegal – but it will probably take decades for this to be ruled as such – by which time nobody will be held accountable (like the illegal Iraq invasion of 2003). 

Thanks

(Charles asked if the above statement regarding “free” supermarket food in France is “true” – this is my response).
