But the economy is so great, BBC?

You only have to do a little digging to find this

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-46193571

Kinda contradicts all the great news when they are reporting food bank rises ffs

How many food bank users are genuine and how many see it as free food?

But it still contradicts their "great economy" stories until its proven who the needy really are?

How many food bank users are genuine and how many see it as free food?

Indeed. The key question, but don't expect anyone of the liberal/left to ask it.

People STILL respond to incentives, If the incentive is a reduced shopping bill, don't be surprised if all sorts of herberts show up at the free food banks.

It is perfectly possible for 90% of the working population to be a bit better off year on year but for the other 10% to be a lot worse off. Many of the food bank users should be getting universal credit but the bureaucrats in charge are clueless. Nobody asks the 90% for their opinion but every reporter wants to talk to the 10%.

lybertyne and alun just think you turn up to a food bank and get to pick up some free food.

hey we care for the poor or working classes but only if we can blame foreigners or muslims for it

There's nothing "left" or "liberal" about it

The BBC have been caught out bull***tting a lot when it comes to finding agendas, despite it contradicting another of their agendas

One minute the economy is doing back flips, the inflation is at a decade low, wages are increasing, but the next food banks are at record highs

You can't have it all, BBC

But no one is batting an eye lid to it all

I am amazed  that some people are surprised that visits to food banks are going up! they are going
to go up more, the free word is the key.

Yet another racist comment from aaronh

you dont need to look at food banks to see how the country is doing,public and private debt are at record levels,the bank of england along with central banks around the world have no idea how to normalise interest rates,Trump is telling the world how great America is doing and then says the Fed should lower interest rates and start QE4,which they are already probally doing to keep the stock market going up,not going to end well

and also if the economy is doing well how the hell could Corbyn and Abbot be so close to getting voted in if there was a general election tomorrow

But But

Trump was against QE and low interest rates pre president?

yes,he was,which suggests the numbers he is seeing are not painting such a rosy picture

I wonder how Doc C is filling his time now.

Sorry, it's just that your last sentence made me think particularly of him for some reason.

His profile is still showing so not far away imo
