INCREASINGLY more Britons are being forced to depend on food banks, being made homeless or are driven to commit suicide.
At the leaders’ debate on Wednesday, Amber Rudd acknowledged these realities, but brushed them as aside as if those suffering were nothing.
Should the Conservatives be returned to power not only would the number of fellow Britons suffering increase, but we’ll have a government which literally wants to take food aware from children.
To do all this to another human being by accident is wrong. But to do this intently is to commit a wrong so contemptible even God can’t forgive.
Amber Rudd tells us no magic money tree exists to help Britons in need. But strange how such a money tree exists whenever the Conservatives need money for tax breaks for billionaires, increases in foreign aid, to pay for grammar schools, etc.
