PM SO COLD HEARTED

FOR many struggling families foodbanks are a vital lifeline - but it appears that for Rishi Sunak they are an inconvenient truth he would rather not talk about.

Campaigning Iceland boss Richard Walker claimed he was roasted by the then-Chancellor for speaking about the schemes that have soared in number during 14 years of Tories.

Mr Sunak was seemingly not angry about the fact people are so hard-up they need foodbanks but that he had to fend off questions about them.

Mr Walker, who quit the Tories last year over their policies and now backs Labour, told how he had a meeting with Mr Sunak in March 2022, which he thought was about his bid to stand as an MP for the party.

He said: "At the end [of the meeting] he said, 'There is one other thing.

"When you said you wanted to be a Tory candidate, I was shocked, because I just thought you were some Leftie, because your comments about foodbanks on the day of my spring statement were not helpful because I was having to answer questions in parliament about it.
