No free lunch

Yesterday and through today, the anger at shots shared on social media of the replacement food packages for vouchers have been shared many times.

Marcus Rashford, who in his daytime job set up the winning goal for Manchester United yesterday evening, then in his part time job, called Johnson and got the Prime Minister to do another u turn, and today we learn that the couchers are to return.

That is seems Rashford is now the leader of the opposition, and has the clout to shame the Conservative Part and Government into changing course.

At the root of this is the conservative belief that poor people cannot be trusted to spend the money given on what it was supplied for, that they might spend it on a carton of Bensons and half a lite of cheap vodka.

Companies were paid to provide food parcels for £30, and when the value of some of the parcels was added up, it came to just a fiver. A can of beans, two jacket potatoes, some died pasta, two slices of cheese, a tomato and three yoghurt tubes!

Needless to say, the contract to provide the packages was not put to tender, a Conservative Party doner got the contract and is making over £20 per family in clear profit, and without Rashford, nothing would have been done.

The Tories are happy spending our taxes with their friends, but not on the poor of this country.
