Footballer Marcus Rashford fights for free school meals

[Artaxerxes]

"I'm sorry if the tory MP thought he heard me calling him a piece of scum" would have done it.

I'm sorry he was offended is the usual apology non-apology.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Won't somebody think of the MPs?

 

[Streathamite]

cheers, bees fella, am obliged to you!

 

[Streathamite]

how did we get here? How?

people voted for it.

 

[frogwoman]

Surprisingly my MP (Joy Morrissey) didn't vote against it. Don't want to get too excited tho as she's an awful Tory.

 

[Lord Camomile]

He's been retweeting businesses and organisations who have stepped in to offer free meals, just keeps getting more impressive.

Daily Star is getting quite radical these days.

It is lovely to see on Marcus Rashford's twitter feed the number of independent food outlets offering to feed kids over half term.

Respect to them all. I am sure a lot of them are suffering in the current climate but regardless of this are not willing to see kids go hungry. If any are in your local area then please try an support them with your custom.

people voted for it.

I still don’t understand, how. After successively being shafted by the Tories, for decades, they voted them in again.

I gone and said ‘shafted’

Interesting thread.



Charity for ending food poverty run by conservative MP and out of the same building that houses half a ton of Brexit pushers.

Won't let me read it - perhaps they're starting off by ending food poverty for conservative MPs who voted Brexit.

I’m unfriending someone I’ve known for years over this. It has been the final straw in their right wing fuckery. They’ve blindly supported Brexit and Britain First, they’re All Lives Matter, refusing to accept the arguments for BLM, these have pushed me to ignore them on and off over the years.

Now they think the government is right over free food. Well they can fuck right off. I’ve struggled with their fuck witted, dickhead arguments but have always thought they were fundamentally decent people who would help others in need. But no more.

If you think starving poor kids (in both senses here) you are an outright total cunt who I don’t want any dealings with. Ever.

By feeding them children

Twitter is usually a cess pit of despair but seriously looking at Marcus Rashford's timeline today is a beautiful thing, this country is not nearly as shit as its elected government is.

The government elected by a whopping 29% or thereabouts of the electorate

Yes, obviously a front for US-funded Atlanticist, fundamentalist shilling. This Cato crap exemplifies where this is coming from:



Piano wire for these fuckers.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Part of me always worries the Tories will just say "see, we don't need to step in".

Free school meals: Councils offer own meal vouchers for children Free school meals: Councils offer own meal vouchers for children
It’s good to see the councils standing by the local children. But no doubt the Tory scum buckets will vomit out the bile that Lord Camomile has posted above.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Been thinking about this some more, I really can’t remember being so angry at a vote; five hundred and eighty three MPs went to a debate and vote on whether to give £15 worth of food to poor children for a period less than seven weeks.

Cunts goes without saying, but have these wankers got nothing better to do than this?? They are fucking worthless scum.

Cos councils are just flushed with cash these days. More fucking services to be cut.

I saw that. I'm really moved. I'm welling up.

I'm not surprised all those fuckers voted against this or that they're so completely tone deaf on this issue. But I had thought they might've learned from the last time just how bad this makes them look and voted for it purely for that reason but no.
