“Low-cost is an economy of renunciation. You give up quality in exchange for low prices. The worst part is that the more you squeeze farmers’ margins, the happier people are going to be. It’s been going on for forty years. So you have oxidized our agriculture, our industry, our crafts and ultimately people eat badly. So this low-cost theory is deadly”he explained.

The leader also deplores the disinterest of the public authorities on these issues, regretting that“no politician has the courage to talk about it”.

“We make the adjustment variable of low-cost food by telling you that it is ‘for those who do not have the means’ rather than saying ‘we are going to raise wages, we are going to find the way to do it. Food is not the gasoline you put in your car. Food is your fuel, your health and that of the country. The worse your health, the harder it is for the country to have health protection services”, he lambasted. The message got through.
