Food Banks with Emma Revie, CEO of the Trussell Trust The Jam Pact

People in the UK aren't just hungry for food...
They're hungry for justice!
Emma Revie, the CEO of the Trussell Trust, says that food banks are a symptom of a problem, not the solution. 
We have two choices when it comes to poverty in the UK: to treat it as if it is an individual tragedy or a problem with our social safety net. 
This net holds us all.
Quote of the episode: "We need to stop thinking of poverty as an individual issue and start thinking of it as structural.”
Bonus quote: "We know what drives people to food banks. We can end the need."
