UK: Big Brother row as 'food police' secretly photograph schoolchildren's packed lunches


From the Daily Mail:
Teachers have used 'Big Brother' tactics to spy on children's lunchboxes, it has been revealed.
They secretly photographed pupils' packed lunches over six months and analysed the contents.
Staff awarded marks to the food and then showed their findings to outraged parents, offering them advice on how to improve nutrition.

Parents of these students should return the favor and become big brothers snooping on these invasive teachers and their superiors personal lives/shopping habits/hobbies/acitivities for six months. Then publish a final analysis and report of their findings in the UK Daily Mirror, offering their own as well as their children's suggestions to the snooping teachers, for 'improvement' in appropriate behavior.
