Interesting Facts

According to the Office for National Statistics sex workers and drug dealers add £9.7 bn to the GDP of the UK. (This amount is the same contribution as farming, and only slightly less than book and newspaper publishers. It will be categorised under "Miscellaneous Goods and Services", which also includes life insurance, personal care products and post office charges. It's nice to see everyone doing their bit.)

According to research carried out by WRAP (the UK's Waste and Resources Action Programme ) , the average UK household throws away enough food to make 6 meals every week (The waste costs almost £60 a month per family, but, according to farming UK if you add it all together it's worth a whopping £12.5 billion a year.  The top three foods that we are throwing away uneaten are those every day essentials: bread, potatoes and milk. The equivalent of 24 million slices of bread, 5.8 million potatoes and 5.9 million glasses of milk are wasted daily.) Source
