I'll be at my local foodbank later, demanding to know why all the people using it don't just become plastic surgeons or pilots. https://t.co/NGXPSNHL2Q

Might become an MP to protect myself from this surge. I can think of around 350 of them that need replacing. https://t.co/2dbuQmBJsy

Comments like this reveal it so clearly. Those in power genuinely believe that poor people have no ambition, no hunger for growth, no will, no drive, and THAT is what makes us poor: that we don't try hard enough. That we haven't bothered to do something that they, above us, did. https://t.co/cehv2uUf0s

Or how about doing some part time hours fruit picking & helping your local farmer? https://t.co/9lqVwmyV0w— Sir Michael Take CBE (@MichaelTakeMP) May 16, 2022
