false finger

I probably put a false finger on Newham's mayor and council.
Sunday afternoon Bernie took me and Eva to Texco extra for shopping.
We talked about recycling and growing your own food on the way. He says his compost bins in his back garden were subsidized by the council; and people do have allotments from the council to grow small amounts of food in there. Each autumn they have competition of growing the best food. Some even get obssessed to sleep beside the plants in case other rivals may destroy the crops to assure the winner status in the game. We did passed by a place seeing many people working on slots of land and small shelters scattered in it.

But the effort still seems meager. Well intended doesn't necessarily mean satisfied results. There's a process needed. How to do the process with propriety? I guess that is a BIG question, to Newham council, and to everyone else.
