30p Lee Anderson complains poor family eat McDonald’s – grilled by these comments

"How does Lee Anderson get time to be an MP? He appears to be spending a lot of time following one family around going to McDonalds and watching their eating habits."

Outspoken Tory MP Lee Anderson has said some families are “abusing” food banks because they also eat out in McDonald’s.

The deputy chairman claimed he has seen one family being helped at a food bank “in McDonald’s two or three times a week” as he criticised their “priorities”.

Mr Anderson: “One particular family I was helping, really helping, and they were going to the food bank two or three times a week to get their groceries and then, you know, I see them in McDonald’s two or three times a week.”

Maybe parents think it’s 1 fewer thing to worry about when they’re working 2 or 3 jobs on min wage? Perhaps they’re anxious & the kids lobby for it and the parent relents because they think it’s a treat. The implication is people aren’t struggling. PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STRUGGLING!

Conservative Deputy Chairman Lee Anderson says one family in his local constituency who regularly uses his local food bank, he also sees in McDonalds "two or three times a week."

How is this even possible? Does he have them under surveillance? pic.twitter.com/G5wD6XZ8Nk

Assuming this happened (it didn’t), what’s the problem? Some people just want poor people to be miserable.

There are people, lots of them, in this world whose happiness depends on the misery of others. https://t.co/5DeQwZISmN

McDonalds is not an insane expensive luxury, folks, it's cheap, calorie-dense food that keeps you full for ages https://t.co/kPcBOGLJQg

Per calorie, processed food is more often than not cheaper than fruit and veg. There is also a saving in gas and electricity, as well prep, cooking and wash up time.

That's before we even start looking at junk food marketing, which assures consumers will feel 'happy'. https://t.co/14eVyrpbrr

Tired old 'chipshop anecdote' and no doubt a total lie. A Dave down the pub tale. https://t.co/jsV26TVH2Q

If I saw a bloke who looked like Lee Anderson spending hours in McDonald's staring at families, I'd call the police. https://t.co/lkI3HfuusP

They say MPs don't work hard, but there's big Lee Anderson going undercover as Ronald McDonald seven days a week, whispering "target spotted ordering a Happy Meal" into his stripy sleeve to signal Grimace, who's hiding outside in a flower van with a long lens. https://t.co/ildFe6P743
