Free School Meals For All
Why not?
If we can afford the Iraq War or the new Trident...
Think of it as preventative healthcare. When I was at school we used to buy junk food with our dinner money instead of a healthy hot meal.
New Labour's reforms are half-measures. The minimum wage wasn't a living wage. Free prescriptions for those with cancer; tests of free school meals. It's all begrudged, isn't it?
Hear, hear.
