MP voices support for pig farmers
Cotswolds MP Geoffrey Clifton-Brown demonstrated his support for Britain's pig farmers at an event organised in westminster by the national Pig Association.
Mr Clifton-Brown met up with James Hart, a pig farmer from Bibury, to discuss the current crisis in British pig farming.
The cost of pig feed has gone up as a result of a global increase in the cost of wheat and while prices of pig products have risen in the shops, the increases are not reflected in the prices paid to producers.
