UK farmers are planning supermarket blockades - demanding fair prices

UK farmers are planning a night of direct action against supermarkets, protesting the low prices they receive for their produce. Today, at around 7pm, farmers say they will blockade several supermarket distribution centres to demand fair pay and more support for British farming.

The group behind the protest, Proud to Farm, has invited farmers to gather at over 30 supermarket distribution centres and block access in or out. A spokesperson from the group explained that their motivation is to secure a better future for farming in the UK. Proud to Farm are asking for fair pay for farmers as well as more support for the farming industry as a whole from the government.
