There was a protest in Kendal last night at the state of the dairy sector.

There were demonstrations across the country last night - including in Lancashire and Cumbria - at supermarkets, their depots and processors.

Meanwhile, farmers have been pulling publicity stunts by emptying milk aisles at various supermarkets - there are pictures below. They left the stock in store.

Around 60 people took part in the Kendal protests - the police were called but were satisfied it was a peaceful demonstration.

Elsewhere, the National Farmers Union has called for urgent meetings with the government to get a better price for producers.
