Re: £2 chickens

Thankyou for clarifying my point Claytonender.
I too have been in that position......choosing whether to pay a bill or put food on the table.....you can guess which won.
Choosing ethically reared produce is a luxury that some families just cannot afford....and as you say, they have nothing to give up....all of their finances being spoken for.
Some pensioners will fall into this category.....having to choose whether to eat or to stay warm as they cannot afford to do both.
