Prof. Catherine Flick

Can anyone explain to me how these people sleep at night? I just don’t understand how a company that feeds kids can see a profit rise of 30% as anything other than a damning indictment of the quality of their food and treatment of their workers.

From Private Eye: HARD TO SWALLOW February 2021: Catering company Compass apologises after footballer Marcus Rashford exposes its dismal meals for schoolchildren: "The quality and quantity of some of food parcels fell short of our usual high standards." November 2023: Compass announces profits up 30 percent to £2.2bn and pay for chief executive Dominic Blakemore doubling to £7.5m. March 2024: Compass responds to Southampton headmaster exposing the company's "unacceptable" school meals: "We apologise that in this instance our usual level of service has fallen below the high standards we demand."

Everything is just about the money now. My local dentist for example since being gobbled up by Portman Dental Care group now no longer accepts new NHS patients. If you fall off the NHS registry for any reason - like if your dentist retires, you can't get back on. They're only interested in high profit Private dental care.

Socially responsible business doesn't have much status in today's Western world.
