VIDEO: Minister defends dairy summit speech

Farm minister Jim Paice defends comments made during a speech to dairy farmers at an emergency milk summit in London.


Speaking to more than 2500 dairy producers battling against low prices, Mr Paice was applauded when he questioned the amount of money some farmers are paid for milk.


But applause turned to boos when he also suggested some farmers could cut their production costs further.
