With another Conservative government we are heading into many more years of food poverty, thanks to the disastrous universal credit system, its 5 week wait period and the Conservative's dehumanising cutbacks of our welfare system.

Since the government won't help the folk who are going to bed hungry tonight I'd like to do what little I can for our community, and hope that you'd join me.
