Food prices in the shops could be brought down if the EU helps farmers – that’s the view of Colm Markey. MEPs are worried the rising food prices are putting pressure on families and contributing to inflation. The issue will be raised this afternoon in a debate in the European Parliament with the Agriculture Commissioner. Speaking from Strasbourg ahead of the debate, Fine Gael MEP, Colm Markey, said the EU should intervene to bring down soaring farm costs so that the benefits can be passed on to consumers.
