Holy cow! I just checked this fact and it's true! https://fullfact.org/electionlive/2019/dec/9/food-banks-more-mcdonalds/ https://fullfact.org/electionlive/2019/dec/9/food-banks-more... That said, it shouldn't be a suprise since there are food bank donations everywhere these days. Truly depressing.
- thorin 4y agoThis is sad, but basically every supermarket and corner shop has something like a foodbank by the door and I guess it would be included in these stats so not surprising. Also people with housing can survive in way colder conditions than they might think. It's a shame that all the wealth has been hoovered up from them by the upper classes and big businesses. Every time I see something about cost of living in the UK I think about whenever I want to do anything: theme park, attractions, hotels, restaurants everything is packed with people spending obscene amounts of money, loads of new cars around etc. It's truly a 2 tier system now and I guess in the US also?
