Great paper here on how UK supermarket pricing power has been great for consumers and devasting for the bacon/pork supply chain. https://t.co/ASS8TEfmIv
My relatively ill informed view: for far too long we’ve looked at competition/anti-trust policy as a way of protecting consumers. But that’s not enough.
Debate now (rightly) moving onto protecting workers (via monopsony effect) but also needs to look at supply chains/small firms. https://t.co/yeWIdm8WFK

Many of these people are SEEKING ASYLUM because decades of US corporate imperialism and support for murderous gangs and dictators have made life in their countries a living hell.
Just some broader perspective to chew upon.
