David told a meeting of Party campaigners that, “the creeping acceptance of growing poverty amongst us must stop simply by us refusing to accept that in some way it's inevitable; it's not.

"The resources are there to make a difference just insist by voting Labour that our wealth is targeted at the many and not just the few."
