"I voted against the Nicholson report given it openly undermines the free market arrangements in the dairy sector by making the case for a return to supply management of the sector.
The definitive phasing out of milk quotas in April this year marked a success of years of hard work to bring competitiveness and efficiency to one of the key sectors of the EU’s rural economy. The end of milk quotas marked a beginning of a new era of productivity and fairness for farmers.
I am disappointed that, instead of trying to focus on viable solutions, the Tories and the Liberals chose instead to make an irresponsible case to get back to market management and intervention. It was even more surprising to see some Eurosceptic Tories voting for the European Commission to effectively commit more funds to market-distorting intervention.
Farmers are at the heart of our rural communities and everyone, from Commissioners to consumers, must act to ensure they get a fairer deal."@en1
