The claim
2.98 million people are currently using food banks, up from 60,000 in 2010.
Original publisher’s rating
Evaluation: False. While data does suggest a significant rise in the use of food banks, the figure used by the Labour Party is the number of parcels handed out by the Trussell Trust charity, rather than the number of people using food banks.
