FAO DG fasts in solidarity with billion hungry people

You’ll no doubt be aware there’s a Hunger Summit on in Rome. Jeremy is there at FAO, so I don’t have to be. ((José Manuel Barroso is presumably also in attendance. Along with a few others.)) He was going to post regular updates on Facebook, but alas connectivity is not up to it. But perhaps we’ll get a summary from him in due course. Meanwhile, you can follow the official take on proceedings on Twitter, and indeed watch the webcast. This, however, is perhaps the most interesting of the many gimmicks that will be on display during the next few days. I hope something concrete comes out of all the brouhaha, but wont be holding my breath.
