Like a Dicken's Christmas scene artside in Sowerby Bridge.
Snowflakes the size of heyf crarns, men in top hats and long black coats carryiing food parcels for starving families over their shoulders. children frolicking in the snow.
Watching excitedly arta windda. Eyes like saucers.
Mi mam wont let me go art cos av not got any wellies.

Turning to slush in parts nar. Trarzer bottoms and socks steaming on fireguard. Feet red raw and chapped.
It'll be lethal toneet when it freezez.
Ah, but are these food parcels full of nutritional goodies from Sir Rashfords shop. Where no matter what you spend your money on, the box will always be paid for by others...? Or frugal rations.....a scabby potato, and half a carrot that would teach people to think twice before they had kids they can’t afford. ?
“Nah Mr Scrooge...... It’s their right to have ten kids they can’t afford...... load up the Amber Leaf and the PS5’s....., Mrs ******. is away this weekend and she needs this delivery to keep the kids quiet whilst she’s in Tenerife.!.....
“Trust parents to spend the dinner money”
Why on Earth not.... can’t see anything going wrong... Can you ?

When I was a kid there were 10 kids in the house next door - and when they were old enough they were having kids of their own - none of them kids went hungry.
Chip pan was never off the cooker.
Along with eggs and bread.
Plus of course there was plenty of veg being cooked back then.
How much does a sack of potatoes cost ?
Other houses on the street had 3, 4, 5 or 6 kids in them.
The street was full of kids ...... and they were happy times.
Working people wages were low.
But none of the kids got free toys or books.
Although laptops hadn’t been invented back then.
Are these not unprecedented times ? , working people on furlough and 80% of incomes , jobs lost , child care arrangements difficult and having to take time off unpaid to look after them .
Not everyone is filling their boots due to the pandemic , no that's the pre requisite of those who donate to the tory party or have connections to them and are awarded contracts worth millions of tax payers money .
Anyone want to debate my last paragraph ?
Or are we going to quote things from the lovely Katie Hopkins ?
