More from the tragically misunderstood 'Laughing Lee' I may be wrong, but wasn’t Essex having problems with nuisance neighbours recently (maybe some one else). I’d have thought he’d welcome some action against them. As would anyone who has experience of that horrible situation.

Fucking hell an actual journalist tweeting bollocks about expense figures its normally the sort of thing knuckledraggers tweet about Lammy and his millions in expenses only thing is for all of them it includes cost of paying staff and renting an office so these arent really expense figures...... But do you agree with him politically, that food banks wouldn’t exist if people only knew how to budget and cook? Let’s pose a different question (because yours, frankly, is facile). Could folk improve their situation better if they were better at budgeting and cooking?

Well he doesnt actually say that but no doubt they are some users who cant manage on the money they have and there are some users who cant manage the money they do have, if his local food bank are doing this I'd say there might be something in it.

I would wager that the poorest in society, those using food banks etc, are those who are best at budgeting. Perhaps Lee Anderson should spend a week living off what the very poorest live off, and perhaps then he will realise how terrible it is for so many to have to rely on food banks to feed their families. Also what he said is awful. Basically denies that people need food banks and says that not many are being used. He is deluded and a tory twat.

I'd like to bet that people on £77 a week on JSA are far more adept and familiar with the challenges and skills of budgeting than Lee fucking Anderson.
Perhaps he thinks they're all thick?

No, but presumably they don’t think that foodbanks are barely used and would be obsolete if only the users knew how to budget and cook.

The opening of foodbanks are now celebrated like the opening of a new hospital or leisure centre.

I'd probably just keep my head down if I were you. Fucking hell an actual journalist tweeting bollocks about expense figures its normally the sort of thing knuckledraggers tweet about Lammy and his millions in expenses only thing is for all of them it includes cost of paying staff and renting an office so these arent really expense figures...... Sorry, I didn't realise that and can see by the comments on this from others that everyone rightly sees staffing expenses aren't true expenses. A breakdown of his spending shows his biggest cost was on staffing at £165,215.27, followed by £33,144.30 on office costs and £17,650.60 on accommodation. That all being said these costs look incredibly inflated especially the office costs.

That all being said these costs look incredibly inflated especially the office costs. Have no idea how many staff he employs for that but £33k for a centre of town office rent, rates, utilities, furniture, IT equipment, phones etc etc etc doesn't seem anything exceptional, accomodation again no idea if thats hotels or a flat rent but I'd assume 100+ nights in London so again neither seems excessive. Personally I still think the expense system is crap, I'd pay MP's more and expect them to cover the costs of accomodation / travel just like any normal person would have to for their job with non london mps obviously getting higher than London mps as they would be regularly working away from home. The system is so fucked the person in charge of the standards committee sold a flat he owned at a huge profit as the mortgage could no longer be claimed and then rented a place, all supposedly within the rules and advised to do this by IPSO now if this sort of thing was done in a normal business where you are expected to minimise costs your feet wouldn't touch the floor on the way out through the door.

The Tory Party and the City of London are awash with Russian money. No one seems to give a toss, remarkable.

The immoral and the abnormal being normalised is not an accident Welcome to the UK 2022…absolutely it’s a disgrace to celebrate a food bank opening. Yes they are needed but to cut a ribbon etc…disgraceful.
