Shropshire MP Helen Morgan has signed an open letter from more than 100 MPs calling on supermarkets to back British produce.
The MPS have called for retailers to incorporate a ‘Buy British’ section on their online stores.
In a recent survey carried out by the National Farmers Union, 61 per cent of respondent farmers stated the supply chain and market volatility have negative impacts on their mental health, with 80 per cent of dairy farmers in a second NFU survey citing cash flow and profitability as key factors which throw the future of their business into doubt.
“Farmers want to see strategies pushed by DEFRA and the government rooted in food production, and that means we need more policies in place that support consumers who want to buy British – including tightening up food labelling standards.
