omg

[the truth]

so the quest for actual facts and figures goes on? sigh....how much are they paying to produce and being paid by the supermarkets and what are the subsidies amounting to?

[billy123]

They should bring back the Milk Marketing Board and make them completely independent and profit free and give the the power to set prices based on farmers and processors costs and retailers profit margins so everybody gets a fair piece of the pie.

The big retailers have used really cheap milk (and bread) as a way to get people into their stores for years. There is a reason why milk and bread are always at the far end of the supermarket they cottoned on years ago that if you put the things that everybody needs to buy at the back of the store and make them as cheap as possible you sell more of everything else along the way.

It is unfair on the farmers to be used like that.
If you buy milk if you look for the red tractor logo then you can be assured the farmer received a fair price.

Aw poor Bob that sounds awful, you can make Ice cream from coconut milk and bananas you know
Milk and dairy have been cut from my diet during the last two months, and I have to say I feel a LOT better too, my auto immune response was inflammation different to yours thankfully

[arista]

Morrisons will start soon a
a Milk brand 10p more
with money going back to the Farmers

[Wizard.]

It's sad that a 500ml bottle of fizzy drinks is like Ł1.30 yet a 4 pint milk is only Ł1 or less they definitely should raise milk prices.

Good ol' Morrisons. I'll definitely buy it, not that I drink that much milk... but I think they'll be surprised how many people are willing to support the dairy farmers.

Milk causes mucus.

'Aldi and Morrisons have announced they will increase the price they pay suppliers for milk after bowing to growing pressure from dairy farmers about the crisis in the industry.

Aldi, the discount supermarket, said it would pay a minimum of 28p per litre for liquid milk from Monday, following talks with farmers and unions, while Morrisons will pay 26p per litre

The increase was announced after Asda said on Thursday it would also pay 28p per litre. This means that Aldi, Morrisons and Asda have committed to pay more than the current average price paid to farmers of 23.66p per litre.'

They could've just lowered their profit margin... :/

Asda To Pay More For Milk To Help Farmers

well done AsdaWalmart

[MTVN]

It was some farmers I know quite well who helped kick start a lot of the protests doing the milk trolley challenge near me where they cleared the local Morrisons shelves of milk. I support them and am glad that it seems to be having an impact.

[Kizzy]

Yes when you know people who are affected it makes their plight all the more real doesn't it?
Maybe we should all imagine we know a tube driver, and a nurse and a steelworker and all the other jobs that are at risk today.

If a Lax-intol says stay away you better be listening to him you go trying to plug that up and it could go off like a geyser.

lol, trust me i stayed away, i just found it a bit hipocritical. trust me it ruined the mood for sure. and it made me eye him up anyime he ordered anything with cheese or if he had ice cream, i was like well i guess i'm not getting any tonight!

for the record i only dated him for 2 months. it was a quick lesson. (and he was malaysian of chinese decent) that's how i n ow about the fact that it['s mostly asians that have that disorder. he tried to make it seem like he had no control over it based on his race, but of course he had control over not eating cheese or dairy, atleast as much control as i had over my smoking.

it was a shame, cause i am extremely attracted to asian guys, and he was my first asian guy, but now i know from now on, ask up front, are you lacto?? #datingasianmentips

Sorry Bob - but it is humorous.
