Clare IFA Chair Says "Complete Disconnect" Between Farmers And Government On Bord Bia Controversy

The Chairperson of the Clare branch of the Irish Farmers Association claims there's a "complete disconnect" between his sector and the Government on the controversy around the head of Bord Bia. The organisation is continuing its rolling protest outside the agency's headquarters in Dublin today as they seek the resignation of Larry Murrin over his firm's use of Brazilian beef in its produce. A Sinn Féin motion calling for Murrin to step down was defeated by 89 votes to 61 last week. Chairperson of the Clare branch of the IFA Stephen Walsh, who's participating in today's demonstration in Dublin, has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons, they're "here to stay".
