yeah I’m not so sure about that. be curious to know the demographic they’re polling after seeing the few numbers they put in the report
*Foodbank’s annual hunger report has revealed.
The report, based on a survey of 4,342 people conducted in July, revealed that compared with 2022, about 383,000 additional households struggled to put food on the table.*
The biggest driver of food insecurity was the cost-of-living crisis, with 77% of households saying it was the main reason, up from 64% in 2022. This was followed by low-income employment and inadequate welfare payments, with 42% of respondents saying that was a contributing factor.
More than half (60%) of all food insecure households had someone in paid work.
I wasn’t that far into the outback, but after 8 weeks on the blocks contracted to Jacob’s Creek I can definitely say that there’s some sketchy shit on the borders. nevermind up north where the croc’s are.
yeah, but that’s like defining “real Canada”. it’s so fucking big with so many different aspects and cultures to it, that there is no one definitive example of it.
