It must be difficult to 'cook' when you have been made redundant, have no savings as you've been on the minimum wage and then sanctioned by JCP...for as little as, turning up late for your signing on.........grrrrrrrrrrrrrr |

When I read some of the reports about the rise in food banks since this government came to power in 2010 and some of the appalling stories of how decisions by the agencies acting on behalf of the Department for Works and Pensions, I am reminded of the way vulnerable people with insufficient means to live on, in days gone by, were discouraged from applying for help. |

OFitG, I've just spent the past half hour reading about Tory's views on the poor - and found an interesting article comparing the Poor Law Reforms to this Government. |

I wonder how many of those who are lucky enough to be in work are just 2 pay packets away from poverty. |
