EU to cut food aid for the poor http://euobserver.com/851/114013
Six member states on Thursday (20 October) blocked the renewal of a €500 million EU food aid scheme, cutting it by three quarters from 1 January.Britain, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden "showed pure selfishness, in a European Union where we need solidarity," said EU agriculture commissioner Dacian Ciolos at a press conference after the meeting.Currently, most food charities rely on the €480 million budget to supply free meals to 18 million of Europe's poorest people
