DeeTillEhDeh Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 TBF if it's the last 5 years, there's no way to tell what her circumstances were at specific points. She could have been comfortable then fallen on hard times then cane through the other side. It happens. I do think she's talking shite btw, but pictures of her being on holiday and out drinking wine don't really prove anything. I think the evidence of the extravagant trips and eating out is not over the past year but over a number of years - so when has the food bank referral meant to have happened? I just find it all rather suspicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loondave1 Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 That's the Plaza Hotel in New York.It is a 5-star hotel that costs almost £500 a night to stay in.Even if she were just having a glass of house champers there it would set her back $31.Food bank user my arse. Presumably no person thats flashed the cash at some point will be permitted to use a foodbank regardless of current circumstances and conversely no foodbank user who comes into a bit money later will be allowed to visit New York or claim to have used a foodbank previously?

I was looking for their respective Scottish leadership at Westminster since they were supposed to stick to Westminster issues. I am not sure that Ruth, Kez, Willie or David are going to have much say in what happens down the road if the Scottish electorate do elect MPs that are representing their party. WE discussed this very point at home but it would have meant Mundell(1 MP) as CU, Murray( 1 MP SLP) Carmichael ( 1 MP Liar) . That would have been interesting mind you against Robertson( 54 SNP) . Might have had to include Coburn as UKIP does stand for Westminster. I also think that your opinion that Ruth etc don't have "much say" might be the problem?

Every time the SNP make a connection between the tories and foodbanks, this clusterfuck will get brought up. It's kind of fucked up their main narrative for the election, though the increase in support for labour means it won't matter . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 The Unionist lads on here trying to get plenty mileage out the foodbank nurse. Anything to cloud and distract from the real issues. No-ones come out of this looking good, not the SNP, the nurse, the BBC or the Tories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foodbanks are being caused by austerity, austerity is being driven by the Torys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can afford that you clearly are not on the breadline. This woman was at it - as her backtracking mewlings afterwards have shown. I bet she has a flat screen TV as well.

John Lambies Doos Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 No they are not. Foodbanks are not "caused". They are "created". They are created by someone sitting at home and thinking "You know what I will open up a foodbank to help people". They don't check the poverty numbers, they don't assess need, they just get the thing opened. There is absolutely no link between the number of foodbanks and the number of people who cannot afford food. OK....Surely a link to Tory Austerity though?

D Angelo Barksdale Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 So, cuts to welfare and public services, lack of affordable housing, rising numbers of homelessness, low paid zero hour contract jobs, rising cost of living, negative wage growth. None of these has any link to the rise in the number of foodbanks or people using them ? Seems legit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
