People had thoughts about Dominic Raab’s foodbank selfie – the only 5 reactions you need

Femi Oluwole shared this clip, which was bad to start with and really hasn’t aged well.

I thought people who use food banks just had cash-flow problems. So why even bother? Let them sort themselves out! pic.twitter.com/yy9RSyRJaS
