Pig protests

Pig farmers from Suffolk head to London to protest at rising feed costs.

Hundreds of pig farmers are holding a rally outside Downing Street today to appeal to the government to help their industry.

We join some of Suffolk's pig farmers as they board coaches to the capital. Jean Turnbull from Ladies in Pigs, which promotes British pig meat, tells us they're being forced out of business by the rising cost of feed and low prices from the supermarkets.
