Fred_Zeppelin Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Seems that the people who are running the George Sq collections are letting their egos run wild. They have thrown their toys out the pram because Loaves and Fishes will be at the Hope over Fear rally on Sunday instead of them. There are rumours of them being selective about which foodbanks they distribute food to and some Glasgow foodbanks are saying their collections in George Sq are depriving them of donations and they never get any passed on to them from the George Sq mob. All very sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilly71 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Isnt it just. Loaves and fishes are there officially and i believe Glasgows needy will be there unofficially. Why we get drawn into this unnescessary crap I dont know. anyway, ill focus on the bigger picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred_Zeppelin Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 Agreed, and have heard similar rumours too. I'm glad we can agree about some things. I despair when I see people who have a common cause letting their egos get in the way, it's fecking tragic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Food banks in 2014 Glasgow make me ashamed to be in a country like this at times. The Scottish and British Governments must be do more to combat this.

Fred_Zeppelin Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 Who are loaves and fishes? An EK charity that distributes food to people who need it, it's been going for decades and is run by an absolute gem of a human being called Denis Curan. http://www.loavesandfishes.org.uk/index.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
