Chris Jordan from Action Aid: “Who's paying the real cost of supermarket price wars?”
It's rarely the supermarkets. The cost is often on to workers in developing countries who produce the food and clothes we buy. They suffer low wages, job insecurity and poor working conditions.
Find out about ActionAid's latest campaign to make supermarkets play fair overseas and how you can take action to help end poverty and exploitation of people in poor countries.
