Trussell’s Post

No one expects to need a food bank, especially at Christmas. But sadly, this is the reality facing far too many people right now. We urgently need your help to provide emergency food, support and hope to people this winter. Donate now 👉 https://bit.ly/4eOtESj #GivingTuesday

A sad indictment of a society broken by political whim and dogma. David Cameron, George Osbourne with a minor contribution by Nick Clegg, imposed austerity on this country. Driving down funding for critical National need in health, housing, security, defence and regeneration, as well local support for education, social services and essential provision such as libraries. They now sit fat on the hog of privilege and meaningless wealth, with Cameron a net worth of £40m, Osbourne just took another share of £30m and Clegg earns $650,000 /annum at Facebook and a current net worth of £4m. So much for their austerity. Not forgetting that all were embroiled in the expenses scandal, shame on them all.
