Milk price row: farming union leaders meet Morrisons bosses

Supermarket chiefs meet NFU and other leading unions in bid to resolve protests and blockades over falling milk price

Morrisons is to launch a new milk brand that costs 10p extra, with the premium paid directly to British dairy farmers, in an attempt to end a dispute over the falling price of milk.

The supermarket chain will sell four-pint bottles of "Morrisons Milk for Farmers" alongside its existing own-brand milk, which will remain at the same price and therefore 10p cheaper.
