Jamie Oliver rightly encourages people to eat healthy food. However, on the back of his campaign to improve school meals he has enjoyed fame and fortune. He has made a killing advertising Sainsburys produce but has managed to avoid one little fly in the healthy eating ointment.

What he does not draw our attention to in these ads, is the food that people living on or below the poverty line are forced to buy from supermarkets such as Sainsburys. The Basics range micro-meals etc.

Whilst it is easy for the wealthy well groomed and well dressed Oliver family to eat rich organic produce and appear in very white Christmas ads, real working class people and the unemployed have no choice but to eat, clean themselves and wear whatever they can afford.

Its time the Oliver family, faced the reality of living on the dole with nothing but Sainsburys Basics for breakfast lunch and dinner. Bathing in Basics range, wiping in Basics Range and drowning their sorrows in Basics Range. Then going to work or the job centre dressed in clothes bought in Sainsburys. After six months of this, lets see who is pontificating and preaching!

We, the undersigned, call upon Jamie Oliver to support and feed his family on the same amount of money that someone living on Jobseekers Allowance does.

Furthermore, we call upon Oliver to eat, wash and wear nothing but items from the Sainsburys Basic range.
