Will Gordon Ramsay and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall join Jamie Oliver's campaign to promote pigs?
Suspended
Suspend date reached
Background:
First it was school dinners, then chickens and, most recently, the people of Rotherham. Now Jamie Oliver is switching his campaigning zeal to a new subject: pigs.
Oliver, whose Ministry of Food cookery show based in the South Yorkshire town is currently on television, will launch a campaign to improve the welfare of the UK'snine million pigs in January. Channel 4 hopes fellow chefs Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Gordon Ramsay will join the campaign.
The show, which will form part of a new C4 food season, is expected to focus on the difference between British welfare standards and those on the continent, which produces half of the UK's pork. The animal welfare groups the RSPCA and Compassion in World Farming welcomed Oliver's involvement, which they hope will shed new light on a little-investigated area of British farming, and spur free-range sales.
Will Gordon Ramsay and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall officially endorse or become involved in Jamie's Pig campaign, or run their own Pig campaign within a month of Jamie's show?
Now Jamie takes a bite at the plight of our pigs

Settlement details:
As reported by a major mainstream news source. An intention to create a Pig campaign show within one month of Oliver's show airing will be sufficient to settle.
