Should we as a country try to help those who go to food banks? Or carry on helping those like dodgyagent so they can go to countries like Portugal and leave his kids to be mercy of nonces while he goes on the lash?

worth a read, they supply emergency food on referral. Its not an easy option to get on their books.
reasons vary but a lot of them are to do with the Benefit system or debt.

Food banks are good. Don't know about different types but the idea you have to get referred/assessed and only get a limited amount from them means it is not just a source of free food for layabouts.

Lots of the food banks are now looking at giving food that people don't have to cook on a cooker or take too long to warm up as some people don't have money for gas or electricity.

I don't think BP was calling DA a nonce, but the comment was still completely uncalled for.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.
