SNP Westminster leader Stephen Flynn had called on the UK to follow the example of France and cap food prices in supermarkets for “basic daily essentials”.
The SNP’s proposal to cap the price of staple foods was dismissed as “communism” by a Tory minister in the House of Commons.
The SNP put the proposal to the UK Government at a session of questions to Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs ministers in Westminster on Thursday. “I say to her to look around the world at how that works – control of those marketplaces does not work.” “So why won’t the Government and the Secretary of State consider price caps to prevent the supermarkets profiteering and to help ensure basic essentials are not beyond the reach of many?”
