I have just read, from multiple need sources and a government release, that the Tories intend to cut #FreeSchoolMeals support in the February half term.

Are they high?

In a country ravaged by a pandemic, hammered by Covid, with child poverty soaring, and kids going hungry?

That should say multiple news sources, but whatever, I am angry.

I am angry because YESTERDAY in PMQ's @BorisJohnson and @GavinWilliamson were roasted by @Keir_Starmer over the last incident of child cruelty.

Fucks sakes! Comedians haven't even finished satirising it yet!

Here, look at this, this is from @thetimes.

The Covid Winter Grants are essentially foodbanks?! Even foodbanks themselves hate people having to use foodbanks!

This is the same meanness we just dealt with! The WORLD sided with the children!

Who thought this a good idea?

Every era has its prisoners.

Ours, the children in poverty, like caged Canaries
and Coal Miners.

The news last week refreshed the betrayal of poverty hanging over the lives of so many.

Including my own memories from my early teens.

When I can’t place those inchoate feelings, I open my kitchen cupboards.

I witness some effects of hoarding tin cans like tiny soldiers.

Standing straight and facing forward.

A sigh of relief.

This story belongs to many.

Warping back to those bare walls in a soup kitchen, lifeless conversations, long stares and whispers.

It’s not homelessness, but it’s not comfortable living.

You live penny to penny with half-a-foot outside your door.

Here's a thread about toxic Tory MP Ben Bradley @BBradley_Mans. He's a nasty piece of work who hides behind a keyboard, like the weakling he is.

PLEASE RETWEET & expose this man who is trying to discredit @MarcusRashford.

There was the time where Ben made up lies about Jeremy Corbyn. Boy did he grovel after this episode. amp-theguardian-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/amp.thegua…
Thread//3

Here's Ben saying Council workers should quit, if the don't think they get paid enough. An interesting opinion from a man with his nose well and truly in the trough. www-mirror-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.mirror…
