The Rest Is Politics · Data Centres vs. Drinking Water: What Matters To Us Most? · 30 Jul 2026 podcast

Do you think it would be fair to say that they are just simply not factoring in themselves the environmental constraints that we have, and therefore, from their own perspective, they should be thinking much more about water use, energy use, and so forth, and taking on board some of the kinds of measures that you're talking about?

There is so much more that I'm going to be covering in this series.

We're going to be looking at food security and about the myths really behind the headlines to do with climate migration.

So don't miss it.

The Rest Is Politics · Britain's Ticking Time Bomb: The Food Security Crisis · 23 Jul 2026 podcast

To cover up one high-level report into the impact of nature and climate collapse on the UK's national security looks odd.

To cover up two starts to look like a pattern.

Last week, we spoke about the first report that the government didn't want us to see, which was compiled by, no, not politicians, not environmentalists or even economists.

but by top intelligence officials from MI5 and MI6, the people who warn the government about the biggest threats of conflict and instability facing the country.

That report from the intelligence chiefs essentially told us that climate and nature collapse is a serious national security concern for the UK.

And at the heart of that hidden report, which was eventually published, albeit heavily truncated and redacted, is a stark warning about the UK's ability to feed its population.

It identified food supply as the UK's single greatest vulnerability in a world of climate and nature breakdown.

Put plainly, without intervention, people of this country could go hungry.

In this episode, we uncover a second hidden report, this time from 2024, commissioned from a now disbanded team at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to brief an incoming government on long-term risks.

Yet, oddly, it wasn't included in official handover documents, and the only reason it's come to light at all is thanks to Ben Cook at the Times newspaper.

Now, its conclusion is equally stark.

Climate change, habitat loss and geopolitical instability mean that the UK's food security is, and I quote, at risk of catastrophic failure.

Not in some

distant future, but potentially under some scenarios by the end of this decade.

Now that could mean empty shelves, rationing, and the state losing its ability to guarantee food supply.
