Recently won a Tesco contract down south too I think z?

Anyone wanting another thing to follow don't forget the (lowly anticipated) return of the UFU MPI, 26.47 at last calc, but dropping. I reckon processors are holding a wee bit back just to see where market goes and smooth it. Maybe some will rebuild their books.

Stability has to be good. Last time it was this calm with milk prices everyone was paying 33ppl. Can't see that anytime soon, maybe no bad thing for those with longer term view.

General election announcement today may have thrown a spanner in the works.

Anything can happen in these elections, as the last year has shown. However, the outcome of this one at least has the appearance of being much more predictable. The markets like predictable. They will like a larger conservative majority, which will make the passing of laws and measures faster and easier for the government.

This is good for the pound, and very bad for us. At least in the near term, before the brexit negotiations start to get dirty. Pound has gained 1.4% against the euro and is sitting at 83.5p as i write. It is sitting on a supportive base here. If this breaks, the next stop is around 80p.

Surely there's nobody else for it but the Conservatives
