He would say that wouldn't he!

Seriously, I don't agree with him as I think the "Church" can have an input on the decision making process made by politicians. The Bishops are after all, in this case, commenting on what they see on the "street" and food banks haven't happened before the cuts started, so it's bound to be a reflection of how hard it is for some to make ends meet.   The problem is compounded, imho, by people not knowing how to cook...
