No child should have to go hungry
by danielbarker on 23 October, 2020
| This pandemic has shone a spotlight on the travesty of child food poverty. Finally, it feels like this is something everyone is talking about – everyone, it seems, except this Tory government. Last week, Liberal Democrat Education Minister for Wales, Kirsty Williams, guaranteed free school meal provision during school holidays until at least Easter 2021. We’ve been calling on the government to make free school meals available for every child in poverty in England, including during school holidays and lockdowns. It is the right thing to do. But yesterday, Conservative MPs – including local MPs Eddie Hughes and Wendy Morton – voted down an extension of free school meal provision for school holidays. Well, we’re not giving up. We stand with major supermarkets, charities, Marcus Rashford and the British public, to speak with one voice and say, no child should have to go hungry, on any day of the year. Will you join our call to put pressure on the government to extend free school meals and ensure that children living in poverty anywhere in the UK do not go hungry? |
| Thank you. |
 | With best wishes, Daisy Cooper MP for St Albans Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats |
