June is 25 and Billie is 26 and they both have 2 young children one 5 years of age and the other 2. And both adults work. June works part-time as a cleaner at a local primary school. And Billie a security guard full time at a shopping centre uptown. But they do not earn enough between them. To play the rent and all the bills. And buy food and clothing. So they do the weekly. Food runs to the local food bank. To help them survive.
This is modern Britain. And they are not alone.
We are going back to the dark ages.
