I would just like to thank the people of York for their incredible generosity last week.

We had a fantastic response at York Foodbank with record donations at supermarkets and directly to the warehouse.

We are convinced this has been inspired by the wonderful Marcus Rashford and as a strong message to the callous Tory MPs who showed not an ounce of compassion or common decency. Are they really that removed from reality? How did you vote Mr. Sturdy?
