Well given that food banks only arrived in the UK circa the year 2000, makes you wonder what poor people did before then ? Because despite the fact that some would have you believe the rise of food banks is directly related to recent austerity, I can tell you from personal experience that poverty in the 1950's and 60's on local authority housing estates was as bad as it gets.How about flying the flag over food banks aswell?
So if you want to fly a flag over food banks to celebrate the generosity of those that make it happen - feel free !
