It was a nice visual aid, here's a link to the Trussell trust there's lots of information on foodbanks.

No, I don't really remember the removal of industry, I was a child. My Dad tells me about when the unions managed to close the London docks and consequently a lot of industry around there that went when the docks went.
Trying to convince the group that Labour are a shining beacon giving hope to the poor is about as convincing as Katie Hopkins' political analysis. I grew up in a Labour borough, I'm not a stranger to how Labour works and the truth is, a large proportion of the people who will vote for Labour will be people afraid of losing their benefits. Good old Ed, eh? Good old Socialist Ed. Mind you, it's easy to be a Socialist when you're a millionaire and live in a £3m house.
