"Mr President, last Friday I visited dairy farmers in my constituency in Northumberland in the north-east of England and I met with farmers Chris McDonald and Richard and Dennis Gibb. Richard and Dennis have 300 cows on their farm and as a result of the fall in the price of milk over the last eight months they are now receiving a dip in income of a quarter of a million pounds. They are clearly struggling, as are dairy farmers across the UK.
What is to be done? One thing that customers can do is ask their supermarket managers if they are ensuring that they are paying a fair price for all of the milk that they have on sale in the supermarket. Customer power can be used to deliver a fair price for our farmers. It is right that dairy farmers milk cows, but it is wrong if supermarkets and customers milk dairy farmers."@en1
