[QUOTE="britt, post: 7735383, member: 1739"] "Unhindered by competition", that's called a monopoly, and we all know what they do! I live in the area between the M1, M6, M42 and M69. It's Known as the golden triangle and the distribution centres going up around here beggars belief, but they are mostly for "consumer" (mostly imported) goods not food. Markets need competition. Food processing should be kept more regional, as its production tends to be, but where do you draw the line between economy of scale at the processing plant and distance of transport. The free market needs to decide that. [/QUOTE]
