Used to illustrate this story on how America is heading into another "great depression", the Independent labels the photo as:
"Disadvantaged Americans queueing for aid in New York".
Turns out that they weren't queueing in 2008 - they were queueing in 2005

don't you love journalism's constant, unremitting displays of integrity and principle...?
Do you suppose they are run by a Chinese cabal? Maybe the same one which put all those bluesuits in front of Downing Street. Now that was creepy. One can only hope it has a good outcome for the mayoral election.
The independent is a far-left anti-american newspaper. This is an example of how deceiving it can be in order to promote its far-left view of the world.
Using a picture of people in line in 2005 waiting to get free coats with the title 'great depression' is a new low. This picture should have been used to illustrate how the mayor of New York tries to help homeless people.
Shame on you Independent , you suck.
