A York MP is backing a cross-party ‘Buy British’ food campaign and is hosting an event with farmers as part of it.
Julian Sturdy has signed an open letter from over 100 MPs calling on supermarkets to highlight the very best of British produce by incorporating a ‘Buy British’ section online.
The campaign says the ‘Buy British’ tab would collate produce from across the UK so customers have “greater power in their choices”, enabling them to support the nation’s farmers ‘quickly and easily’.
The change could easily be achieved ‘by the click of a mouse’ as many shops already label British products online.
