Dominic @SingleDadSW Watters

To celebrate the launch of my new website dominicwatters.com I give you this video featuring Her Royal Highness Princess Anne and me #ThankYouOFC #NewWebsite #FoodInsecurity #fypシviral

They can take me out my estate But it’s still in my voice #Estate2Plate

On my council estate, @dominos isn’t just takeaway — it’s one of the most accessible “treats”. But when the least healthy options are the best value, that has its consequences. At the Domino’s AGM tomorrow, I’ll be asking why? #FoodIsCare 🍕🥤

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Thank you Rosie. I really appreciate it. There are urgent issues around access to fresh food on #LREstate that reflect wider structural challenges. I’ll email this week and look forward to sharing lived and research insight. #FoodInsecurity #FuelPoverty

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Let's meet and talk about this - I know you've done some great work highlighting it. If you email the office on: enquiries@rosieduffieldmp.co.uk, we'll sort something out?

Just wondering why out of the whole bus station our screen is yet to work?! @StagecoachSE #LREbus #22

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Sorted! (With Joel, Stagecoach boss).

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Grateful Rosie and Josh. The lack of access to fresh food on #LREstate reflects deeper structural issues around affordability, access and stability. I’d welcome the opportunity to share lived and research insight to help inform this #foodinsecurity

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah They can’t “silently” cancel our buses no more #thankyouRosie

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah At 10:53 this morning I mentioned to a station supervisor that you would be here on Friday and will ask why we have the only not working screen.. and back at 14:43 💥🖥️ 🚌 #LREstate #Grateful #PoliticalPower

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Will do, thanks for the nudge.

@RosieDuffield1 @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Thank you Rosie. There is a history of Stagecoach failing the residents of London Road Estate so kindly please let me know if you make any progress. 🚌

@SingleDadSW @StagecoachSE @canterburycc @ArchbishopSarah Will be there on Friday, meeting with Stagecoach, so I'll ask them.

@Botticelliwoman I deeply hear you! That is something I am tackling both in policy and academic spaces, whose knowledge is valued. It is painful to know that we are often only extracted from when it fits their agenda. Then I’m back in my estate where nothings changed.

@SingleDadSW You should! There's way too much unsaid that needs saying and too many of us don't have a voice. Why do we have to wait until the "middle classes" are put out before governments take any notice?

There's a lot to worry about in the world but our own food security should concern us more than it does! It shouldn’t take a war for Britain to wake up to the need for food security | Tim Lang theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

‘It feels like an attack on the poor’ Dominic Watters is a single dad on Universal Credit. If the government decides not to increase benefits in line with inflation, he’d receive £600 less a year (acc to @resfoundation ). He tells @BBCNewsnight he doesn’t know how he’d manage

Countryside <-> council estate food poverty This Saturday the author of Divide, @Jonesthejourno and I will be sharing the stage at EASustain discussing the UK food system. 🍲 Full programme: easustain.com/programme2026

“Tinderbox UK may be one shock away from food riots. Weakened food security could tip into unrest.” It’s time for the government to improve domestic food security. And that is achieved by supporting British farmers rather than financially punishing them. theguardian.com/food/2026/feb/…

@Botticelliwoman @foodiscare Love that! We used to have a whole team vibe on here

@SingleDadSW @foodiscare Still here 🥰

Do I have anyone still on here? 🙏 Please check out the new @FoodisCare and launch coming soon

‘Tinderbox’ UK may be one shock away from food riots, experts say tinyurl.com/23do6j5d [Guardian] I don't see punch-ups in the street. Yet..

One shock could spark social unrest and even food riots in the UK, according to dozens of the country’s top food experts, reports The @guardian. Describing the UK #FoodSystem as a 'Tinderbox'. The group identified a series of issues creating vulnerability, including the climate crisis, low incomes, poor farming policy and fragile just-in-time supply chains. theguardian.com/food/2026/feb/… The full analysis is published in the @MDPIOpenAccess journal, Sustainability, and was produced by consulting more than 30 food system experts from academia, government and industry. It highlights that our broken food system needs to be transformed - changing the way our food is produced and consumed - to future-proof food for all of us. By using our precious resources more intelligently we can create a world with higher standards of living — tackling climate change, protecting nature, and reducing inequality. #CircularLiving #FutureProofFood #SupplyChains #FoodSystems

Why is this story about how the UK is one shock away from food riots relegated to The Guardian's food section, alongside articles about how to make the best cookie dough? No wonder people still don't get it. theguardian.com/food/2026/feb/…
