I watched Johnson being interviewed by Marr, and was in high hopes that he would manage 15 minutes without lying.

Well he so nearly managed it until the last minute. Then out it popped.

Poor old Johnson, what a cross to bear, never managing to open your mouth or putting pen to paper without lying.

Morrisons now has school food boxes with £15 worth of food. Spot the difference!

Schools are free to order them for their pupils. Clever marketing by Morrisons (why not?) and the children receive nutritious food. A win win situation!

Growstuff It's the govt's policy that benefits are adequate - not mine.

My misunderstanding.

I thought you were saying that people needed a little extra to have some pleasure in life (which of course they do) but that it was possible to survive on benefits such as Universal Credit.

I would like to know how many people could even survive for more than a couple of weeks on £74 a week.
