Just been reading the Tory manifesto about pensioners and social care etc. On the matter of winter fuel payments the Tory manifesto says who will get WFP and who won't will be determined by means testing. But at what level of income a pensioner would be eligible for WFP and on what level not, the manifesto is silent. I hear what you say Leatash about fuel payments going to the very ...
Anyone else noticed reductions in amounts when buying food stuffs? I'll give some examples. I noticed when I was using some stuffing the other day that there wasn't quite the same amount in the pack as usual. So I checked with a packet bought previously. And yep! sure enough the amount had been reduced. I noticed the same thing when buying some over the counter cold and flu ...

My dad used to tell me all you need is three things in life, food in your belly, a dry roof and a good pair of wellies. If you have those three things life is good, and it was. Today my kids want things, society has changed to "want want want" I am entitled, why cant i have a new car, own my own house, go to Uni, my iPhone 6s is out of date i need a upgrade. The world is mad we need to get back ...
Vote Tory and say goodbye to the NHS. They have already sold off bits to the likes of Richard Branson. They are under funded staff are underpaid, overworked unless you are a manager on ahuge salary.
Citizens advice at the Manor House in conjunction with Dawlish assist has a food bank. Not a big one but people are assessed and if it is deemed they are in need they get free food.
As far as I'm aware Exeter is the nearest. https://www.trusselltrust.org/get-help/find-a-foodbank/exeter/
