Default Dewsbury Butcher offers free Christmas dinners to those on Universal Credit


[David Jones says local claimants who
won't receive their payments before
Christmas will get a hamper with festive food.]

[A West Yorkshire butcher is
offering free Christmas dinners to
people struggling with delays
to Universal Credit payments.
David Jones, who runs a butcher's
shop in Dewsbury, said claimants
in the local area who won't receive
their payments before Christmas
will get a hamper with a turkey crown,
pigs in blankets and a pork pie.
"It's been a difficult period because
we have got some people that are desperate," ]


That's one good butcher
well done to him.

It would be better if Asda, Tescos, Morrisons or Sainsburys did this rather than a small family business like this. But they're greedy sods.

Well done this man, a very Christian thing to do.
