Not like you're scoring big . Unless you and/or you're children are genuinely hungry.
    Looked to his up and it seems there's varying ways you can qualify.

    It also appears 'some' abuse the system ( isn't there always)

    A lot used by asylum seekers ( which Daily Mail thinks is awful 🙁) and often those who've had their benefits suspended.

    It's nothing new though. Years ago we had soup kitchens.

    Ah the Mail.

    We used to have lots of things, food shortages, rationing, the plague. I would hope that we could move on. I bump against any argument against this. it is right and proper to do so. Just cause it did happen doesn't mean it should in the future or the present.

    Thanks for getting back mate. Pearcy is right as well there. A lot of folks who hit on the hard times won't bang the drum and stand up for themselves.

    Food banks in this day n age are for the despair. Thought we agreed as a society to have safety nets.

    Conversation is a good one. Good stuff.
