As MPs return to Westminster after the summer recess, The Food Programme catches up with three of the newer recruits to discuss future food policies.
Sheila Dillon meets Dr Simon Opher MP (Labour), Aphra Brandreth MP (Conservative) and Sarah Dyke MP (Liberal Democrat) at the head office and kitchens of catering firm Social Pantry, who work with ex-prisoners on their zero-waste food offering.
The questions come from some familiar voices to The Food Programme, including Dr Chris Van Tulleken, Asma Khan, Nicole Pisani (Chefs in Schools), Professor Tim Lang and Helen Browning (Soil Association).
Can this group of MPs push food and farming up the agenda in Parliament, and if so - what will be their focus?
