for the last few years i have been in receipt of esa I have a very low budget per fortnight for food and have been relying on the reduced products available in my local asda at the end of each day,  but for the last 2 weeks all that is available is expensive things i cannot afford, i appreciate the goverment is helping those in work, and those in recipt of universal credit and working tax credits, is there any help coming for those of us who rely on ESA as there sole income? either in the from of a one off payment, or loan that you would pay back from your benefit
