Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Parliamentary proceeding on Future EU Finances and Own Resources.


Future EU Finances and Own Resources

The hon. Gentleman is right—that is the only conclusion that one can draw. It is utterly cynical to continue to subsidise agriculture, especially exports. Until recently, one could buy European-produced sugar in Malawi at a lower price than that at which the Malawians could produce it simply because it is dumped.
