The recent mini-budget which was announced on Friday, September 23, has been labelled a "war on class" in an emotional plea during The World Transformed festival.
West Derby MP Ian Byrne, Fans Supporting Food Banks co-founder Dave Kelly along with two other speakers, Carl Walker and Pat Quigley, took to the stage during a 90 minute event highlighting the state of food poverty up and down the country. The World Transformed festival, currently being hosted in Liverpool and running alongside the Labour Conference, has set out to "politically educate" people of all ages.
The festival is hosting a number of events across the city, with people from all over the country attending in support. As dozens filled the event space at the Black-E event hall in the city centre, almost all seats were taken as people listened as to how they could help with the dire situation many people find themselves in.
