A heartbroken mum has been forced to tell her 10-year-old son that she won't be able to afford any Christmas presents this year due to the cost of living crisis.
Christine Borton, 48, was devastated when she had to inform her young son Dayjanta Samuels not to expect any gifts on Christmas Day.
She said the boy "already knew" and "wasn't surprised" as he is aware of the family's "desperate" financial situation.
