A Tory MP has sparked fury after claiming poverty-hit Brits forced to rely on food banks "cannot budget" and "cannot cook properly".
Conservative Lee Anderson left MPs stunned when - despite the country being in the grip of a cost of living crisis due to spiralling inflation, Universal Credit cutbacks and rising energy bills - he said "there is not this massive use for food banks in this country".
Speaking in the Commons during a debate on the Queen's Speech, he claimed people could "cook meals from scratch" for "30p a day" instead.
