“Oh so we have our hills and valley's covered in sheep/cattle, yet we export to Italy and France for them to benefit with good quality Welsh meat. May I suggest to Alun Davies if he has costings to this as obviously, we here in Wales have to pay a far higher price than Europeans. If he would care to stroll around the markets or even our supermarkets. he'll no doubt understand why we in Wales can't afford to buy it, as it's to bleeping expensive. It'll go the same route as our fishing industry no doubt.”
