Nationals Leader David Littleproud says it is “more profitable” for Australian farmers to export their products. Mr Littleproud told Sky News contributor Gary Hardgrave that Coles and Woolworths are “too difficult to deal with”. “We will be importing food, you’ll be eating second-class food coming from another country rather than our own. “Because these supermarkets are trying to drive down farmers' costs. “When the costs do come down, they’re keeping the prices up. “We just need transparency, we need fairness.”
