Meruten,

I couldn’t watch this from the UK. I had to use a VPN. I have to say that from personal, and this is anecdotal however, I lived next to a food bank until a few months ago and every day that it was open (3 times a weeks), the queue for that place was spilling onto the streets. I remember remarking how many normal people I saw, families with children after them, people I would expect to see in a supermarket are waiting outside food banks.

I think that if you know where to look, it is that bad. If you don’t, though, it can be easy to miss as most people suffer is silence it seems, out of embarrassment or something else, I don’t know. I wonder how many of these people I saw outside the food bank tell people they know that they are forced to use a food bank? I’m not judging them for potentially not saying something to anyone, if they feel embarrassed, but at the same time if people suffer in silence, the issue can be ignored.

My personal opinion is that things are that bad, we just don’t give it visibility and we don’t talk about it.
