    Yeah, but you often find the people who need the help are least inclined to vote for it.

    I remember a story from a few years ago, some article about poverty. A disabled guy from Liverpool, unable to work, his 12 year old daughter was having to collect from the food bank for him, no heating. “I voted for the Conservatives, I just think they’re best for the country”, he said, presumably while applying his clown make-up.
