I wonder if that's really what happened and how long it'll take for some "facts" to be produced about food banks being introduced under tony's mob and it's the wrecked economies fault blah blah.
The bit about the reduced food it true to, the woman that served me yesterday said there'd been a scuffle that day.

The foodbank is born
Whilst fundraising for Bulgaria in Salisbury in 2000, Paddy received a call from a desperate mother in Salisbury saying “my children are going to bed hungry tonight – what are YOU going to do about it”. Paddy investigated local indices of deprivation and ‘hidden hunger’ in the UK. The shocking results showed that significant numbers of local people faced short term hunger as a result of a sudden crisis. Paddy started Salisbury foodbank in his garden shed and garage, providing three days of emergency food to local people in crisis. In 2004 the UK foodbank network was launched teaching churches and communities nationwide how to start their own foodbank.

You did ask.
Not sure that a "need" was the reason for any scuffle.
