I take you've got vast experience of food banks and first hand experience of this practice then? As otherwise that'd just be a know nothing baseless comment.
The idea that there's a decent percentage of people would go through the ignominy of visiting a food bank without a genuine need seems unlikely to me.
I don't have a blond ponytail though.
It's funny, if I said it was immoral that poverty had increased and wages had stagnated you'd accuse me of being too irrational, emotional and naive when it comes to politics. If I use hard economics you accuse me of being a pseudo-intellectual, which is the typical right-wing baby boomer response to any young person's opinion on politics and economics - condescension based on some odd notion that because you've lived longer you're more knowledgable.
Real wages have stagnated compared to standard of living in the UK, that's just a fact.

I was told but the head of category of a major supermarket chain that margarine does not exist in U.K. supermarkets.
Just because you ended up at McDonalds, it doesn't mean that everyone who didn't go to university ends up there...

Not at all. Changes to Corporation Tax doesn't affect the ability of businesses to make ends meet, it affects their after-tax profit margins. It would be incoherent to respond to reduced profits by reducing the size of a business in the way you described, as that would simply make it worse. I've no particular axe to grind either way in respect of Corporation Tax - it's just what you posted made no sense. It's Ok though, you're in good company on this thread....
You know exactly the point I was making, again it seems you're just picking up on the wording I used to twist a point out of something I never said.
Which constituency are you standing in?
The Tories will take us out of the negotiations and through the hardest of hard brexits imo.
why do you have to turn everything personal?
Im not having a go at you, am I?
