Title: 21st Century Blues ... (with apologies to Mr. Coward)
Post by: Lucy Lass-Tick on April 01, 2013, 08: PM
Interesting to contrast the Mail's article re the super response to the food bank's appeal for donations with the harrowing piece published by the Guardian. I support the Trussell Trust's work unreservedly, but what really got me was the Mail's somewhat feudal, forelock-tugging tone, instead of the 'hey, this is so, so wrong' tack employed by a real newspaper.
