A glimpse of the Fairtrade movement 2008-2009

[angloengland]

I and a growing number of people believe in a boycott of all products bearing the 'fairtrade' quango insignia and urge everyone else to do the same. This is NOT fair trade!

@angloengland and your evidence is...??

[angloengland]

@kikicrete My evidence is quite simply what happens to those farmers who previously sold bananas to sainsburys for instance? - qualification for fair trade suppliers is dependent entirely upon the fairtrade quango and they no longer have someone to sell their produce to. Read the report from the Adam Smith Institute for evidence.
