Do You Anticipate More Food Banks Opening Shortly?
With the loss of the winter fuel allowance for many of the elderly and Keir Starmer's stark warning that the coming October budget will be harsh which will hit young and old alike, are we looking to an immediate future where more people will be obliged to rely on charity?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.What I cannot undrstand is how:-
youngsters upwards, all have mobile phones with associated running costs.
people can afford hundreds of pounds to see Taylor Swift and, eg. the Gallagher creatures.
go abroad for stag dos.
and so on. Clearly there are people who suffer from not having enough money but it is in the wrong hands and not always spent on important things.
I don't know about 'more' food banks, naomi. I do anticipate a huge increase in demand. Many of us will be unable to donate the same quantity of spaghetti for example.
Currently, in the village I live in, there is a box for donations in the church porch - so people don't have to come into church and it isnot linked. This last 2 weeks a neighbour has put a box out behind her dustbins to collect food for a chap on our road who has hit very hard times. It's doing well and I'm trying to connect him to an organisation which may help him.
Bare bones answer? Many more people will be obliged to rely on charity. The organisations supplying this aid willcome underconsiderable pressure as will their donors. Donations of food will, for an example, become the cheapest, least healthy meals.

I'll leave you to work out whose government held office at that time.
For your information, I have neither high horses nor 'mates' here. If you want to convey information to anyone, you'll have to do it yourself from whatever height you choose.
