👏 @stephenctimms 👏asking @RishiSunak about the future of the Household Support Fund which runs out in March. We're really worried about this. @EndFurniturePov research shows HSF is propping up 62% of Local Welfare Assistance - a vital part of the social security system
Sir Stephen Timms@stephenctimms

And I pressed for the Household Support Fund, which for the past three years has allowed local Councils to provide a vital safety net to help families, to be extended into 2024-25

Important questions from @stephenctimms of @RishiSunak who hadn’t seen @TrussellTrust’s latest report. Demand for their food banks alone = 1.5 million parcels in 6 months excluding independent food bank data, wider food aid provision and severe food insecurity stats #CashFirst
Sir Stephen Timms@stephenctimms

Today at the @CommonsLiaison I asked the Prime Minister if he still hopes foodbank demand will be falling by the time of the election.

📈Food price inflation remains high, despite the bigger than expected fall in headline inflation. 🍽️Millions will face the reality of not being able to afford presents or a Christmas dinner this year. Our Chief Analyst @StatsPeter took a closer look at today's inflation data ⬇️
Peter Matejic@StatsPeter

A quick cut looking at possible Christmas dinner components' increases in prices vs benefits from today's inflation data since when prices started to accelerate in April 2021. As expected sadly, benefit increases lag all cost increases.

@stephenctimms questioning @RishiSunak on the link between LHA being frozen the last 3.5 years and soaring food bank use is exactly right. New @jrf_uk research shows 7 in 10 low income private renters in receipt of housing benefits didn't have enough money for food in October.

The Chancellor told me at the Autumn Statement that the Household Support Fund would be continued into 2024-25, but that turned out to be a mistake. Today I pressed him to extend the Fund at the Budget, so that Councils can continue to help families avoid destitution

I asked if he recognised that the four year freeze on housing support - during a time when rents have risen fast - has been one of the main drivers of rising foodbank demand, and that housing support should in future be uprated annually
