I remember my grandfather talking about having to line up with others after WW1 hoping to get picked for a days work.To clarify I am not advocating revolution I,m just interested inscial history & how history seems to repeat itself I never knew such things such as food banks existed until recently. I hope this post is not deemed political and removed
Here, you are only allowed 3 visits to the food bank for those who have had their basic JSA benefit stopped, more and more for some unbelievable stupid reasons, and then that's it. No more free food for those in desperate situations. And in this day and age
