Apologies for the Express link, it was the first one I came to. Jamie Oliver’s trying to cause a fuss over Boris decision to bin the banning of BOGOF deals. Good on him. You have to question the sanity of this, how utterly fekking stupid is Boris?
BOGOF is exactly the same as 50% off. One of these promotes food waste and the other one doesn’t. To keep BOGOF "in order to help people save money on food" is the most pathetic excuse. 50% off does exactly that. BOGOF has always been the stupidest method of marketing imaginable, it’s even more so now. Reducing food waste must be the number one priority where food prices are concerned. The govt has completely lost the plot on this one.
