Letter in today’s Guardian: “In recent years, the food bank has used grants from the national lottery to support its activities, but recent applications for funding have been unsuccessful. They have been told that much of the funding is going to events celebrating the coronation”

@Randombob18 this is a perfect example of the failure of a society which depends on charities to provide essential services.

These should be provided by the government to support it’s people, not left to the ad hoc services of charities.
