Food speculation projection at the Tory party conference

By Heidi Chow, 6 October 2012

On the eve of the Tory party conference, photos of people holding messages asking George Osborne to regulate food speculation will be projected onto the wall of the Tory party conference.

On Saturday night, WDM's ‘photo petition’ will be projected onto Birminghan's International Convention Centre before moving it to a series of locations around the venue in Birmingham.

The World Development Movement is calling on the Chancellor to back European regulation to curb financial speculation in commodity markets. Speculation is fuelling price volatility and pushing food prices beyond the reach of millions of people in developing countries.
