Oh come on, srsly! You said he made it up, a link to the BBC website quoting the same trust was provided showing that he wasn't, so you attack a single word and some fluff about facts, which has been provided and verified by multiple news organisations.

Mustn't let those pesky facts get in the way if you don't believe people are sending food back to food banks because they can't afford to cook it. Obviously it's not happening then

This happening in our country is ridiculous, how can we justify sending all that money abroad while people are in this situation? Is Cameron going to get the press to call these food bank users scroungers?

Just watched another Panorama program about the bankers intentionally screwing over businesses and people with 'swaps' just for a bigger bonus. Whole situation is sickening as more are having problems getting by day to day.

Two different things - 'some' is not the same as 'a lot'.

Re: This is 2013 - NOT a third world country

Interesting point made on the radio today was that we still have a lot of people with a lot of debt around their necks built up over the last 10 yrs or so which is only now beginning to bite as wages don't rise with inflation so if the Bank of England stick to their plan of linking interest rates to unemployment figures then we may see a lot more people at the food banks in the next couple of years
