          The kind of people who have children to fund their own lives are exactly the kind of people who will get pregnant again, and then watch their children starve as they have first pick of the food.

          Hence my question about vouchers rather than money.

            Not at all. Just curious.

                    Here's the thing. What proportion of these families had the kidskids while on benefits, and what proportion fell into benefits while they already had the kids?

                      The working poor are relying on food parcels so all this means is the unworking poor will rely more on them as well.

                      The government is already trying to force people who are poor to rely more on charity than the state as well as trying to remove council tax exemptions from them.

                      And as charity equals your voluntary donations plus the money the government (taxpayer) gives to provide cheaper services, you are paying anyway just not on the books.
