"Seriously, why did the Tories vote to deny starving kids food? Even if you set aside morality, they must have been able to see how incredibly unpopular this would be.

But starving British kids... they're much closer to home and much more blameless | |||

That will sway certain readers of right wing bilge. But I think many other people will be genuinely disgusted by this recent Tory move. | |||

"Seriously, why did the Tories vote to deny starving kids food? Even if you set aside morality, they must have been able to see how incredibly unpopular this would be. " No one has voted to deny starving kids food. That is a ridiculous statement. Those who voted against the proposal are probably the more responsible members of society who believe that public expenditure should be directed towards those most in need and not given out on a blanket basis . Steps have already been taken via amendments to the Universal Credit system to address the issue in addition to more local authority funding during the crisis for a variety of key areas . Any fool can vote for additional expenditure when it is not their money. At least those voting against the request are taking a responsible attitude. Maybe the issue to be addressed is how parents are spending their Universal Credit and child benefit . Help is available on an individual basis for those most in need | |||

You cant go out and vote for the likes of Johnson,reece mogg,gove,Mcvey etc and then be surprised when they act like cunts. If it doesn't affect turn directly, people won't be arsed. | |||

" I hope so, especially when the comparison is made to the billions handed out willy-nilly to companies run by mates, that have failed to deliver on their contracts. The number of cases the Good Law Project have on the go against the Government at the moment is shocking. | |||

"I suppose that instead of deporting the homeless EU citizens, the Tories could cook them and feed them to hungry kids instead. That would kill two birds with one stone. It was a joke, but don't mention it to Priti Patel. " Don't give her ideas! | |||

"Actually to counter previous comments some of those children will actually be going hungry and that’s a fact. Witnessing some children’s lives in a school first hand they were exhausted as they didn’t eat proper meals at home. We fed them out of school petty cash before they went home. I was the financial governor so helped moved the cash to do this. It wasn’t big numbers and we just paid for our own school trips. Don’t blame the child and make them go hungry. Blame the education of the parents and their parents before them if you don’t educate people and keep them buried in the benefits culture you cannot then blame them for following the example of ealier generations. We don’t have true poverty in this country as it’s measured on average incomes. What we do have is an ever growing underclass that will never escape the dark depressing world they live in because they simply don’t know how to. What sort of society leaves a child to go hungry because their parents are shit! " You think we still have a benefits culture? | |||

I'm assuming he is a Tory voter? (Apologies if not). But it's an excellent example of how it literally doesn't matter what the Tories do, people will defend them and vote for them regardless. If they the children of population they're supposed to be working for, starve. It matters not a jot. | |||

What sort of society leaves a child to go hungry because their parents are shit! You think we still have a benefits culture? Yes sadly I do but the benefits system is too stingy for some and too generous for others I doubt v much its stingy at all. I think there was a dispatches show on ch 4 a while ago.. see if you can catch that." To give examples Personally after two births no more child allowance. You want more kids you pay for them My partner at the time worked in a secure rehabilitation centre for drug and alcohol abusers or just psychotic younger adults. It was three lovely spaced out dormitory bungalows all with en-suite private rooms. You got to go there if you tried to self harm or threatened others. The clients as they called them were given three meals a day plus, trips to the cinema, bowling m local theme park plus a help with shopping for personal items. On top of this they kept their benefit each week as it was saved for them so it built up nicely. Around 20% of the cases were genuinely in need, this was the lead doctors view. Now after the d*unk or drug addict had been cleared for release they would go out and party on their saved benefits until it ran out. Then true to form they would climb the nearest roof and tell the police I’m going to kill myself. Being unable to say well fucking jump then they were taken back for a few more months of treatment,. And so the cycle continues. Another example . I was waiting for a car to be serviced and watching through the glass standing next to a guy. I asked which was his and he pointed out the nearly new Volkswagen Touran 7 seater. Being polite I said nice car. His response was I got £17k mobility allowance towards it. My curiosity peaked I was subtle but asked I hope he was ok but what was his illness? I knew the answer before I asked because he was about twenty stone. He had a bad back so quit work. Looking towards his equally fat wife he said she gets allowance too. She used to work but again couldn’t work now. Whilst my rage at the fact he also gets a new car every three years was under control I asked why were you allowed a 7 seater. His reply , I told them I had to pick up my grandkids from school. Forgive if I’m wrong but isn’t that the parents problem not the taxpayers . My last point was a very distant relative of mine. He had chronic arthritis and had virtually every joint replaced. Now he received benefits to put a roof over his head and he had a scooter to go to the shops. I would visit with my kids but he lived a few hundred miles away and had no close family anyway. His life was watch the telly and sleep. Compare his life to the generous benefits for the drug addicts being taken to the cinema etc and the ridiculous people carrier for the fat bastard. You see the system fed him but gave him no life as he didn’t get any support apart from that money. The health worker visited but had no budget to take him anywhere and he couldn’t drive himself. He died alone and in pain. | |||

"Just looked at twitter. Here's a few things that are currently trending: ToryScumOut FreeSchoolMeals EatNowtToHelpOut FeedingBritain GuyFawkes I wonder, will the Tories perform a U-turn? You know it is bad when Farage has criticised the government, tweeting that they are a ‘mean and wrong’ Just wait till someone tell him some of them arent English. Second time! Why are you trying to introduce racist connotations into this subject? Because farage and racism are just completely worlds apart. And your first attempt at introducing racism into the subject? I can't be arsed taking it off topic Why dont you carry on defending a gmnt who is happy to see kids starve?" You already have - 5 posts in when you sadly felt it necessary to make racist suggestions . Why did you do this? | |||

We don’t have true poverty in this country as it’s measured on average incomes. What we do have is an ever growing underclass that will never escape the dark depressing world they live in because they simply don’t know how to. What sort of society leaves a child to go hungry because their parents are shit! You think we still have a benefits culture? Yes sadly I do but the benefits system is too stingy for some and too generous for others I doubt v much its stingy at all. I think there was a dispatches show on ch 4 a while ago.. see if you can catch that. To give examples Personally after two births no more child allowance. You want more kids you pay for them My partner at the time worked in a secure rehabilitation centre for drug and alcohol abusers or just psychotic younger adults. It was three lovely spaced out dormitory bungalows all with en-suite private rooms. You got to go there if you tried to self harm or threatened others. The clients as they called them were given three meals a day plus, trips to the cinema, bowling m local theme park plus a help with shopping for personal items. On top of this they kept their benefit each week as it was saved for them so it built up nicely. Around 20% of the cases were genuinely in need, this was the lead doctors view. Now after the d*unk or drug addict had been cleared for release they would go out and party on their saved benefits until it ran out. Then true to form they would climb the nearest roof and tell the police I’m going to kill myself. Being unable to say well fucking jump then they were taken back for a few more months of treatment,. And so the cycle continues. Another example . I was waiting for a car to be serviced and watching through the glass standing next to a guy. I asked which was his and he pointed out the nearly new Volkswagen Touran 7 seater. Being polite I said nice car. His response was I got £17k mobility allowance towards it. My curiosity peaked I was subtle but asked I hope he was ok but what was his illness? I knew the answer before I asked because he was about twenty stone. He had a bad back so quit work. Looking towards his equally fat wife he said she gets allowance too. She used to work but again couldn’t work now. Whilst my rage at the fact he also gets a new car every three years was under control I asked why were you allowed a 7 seater. His reply , I told them I had to pick up my grandkids from school. Forgive if I’m wrong but isn’t that the parents problem not the taxpayers . My last point was a very distant relative of mine. He had chronic arthritis and had virtually every joint replaced. Now he received benefits to put a roof over his head and he had a scooter to go to the shops. I would visit with my kids but he lived a few hundred miles away and had no close family anyway. His life was watch the telly and sleep. Compare his life to the generous benefits for the drug addicts being taken to the cinema etc and the ridiculous people carrier for the fat bastard. You see the system fed him but gave him no life as he didn’t get any support apart from that money. The health worker visited but had no budget to take him anywhere and he couldn’t drive himself. He died alone and in pain. I'd post a link here but I cant. A man from here weighing 6 stone who could barely walk was deemed fit to work,and his £67 a week benefits were stopped He was took into hospital and died a few weeks later of pneumonia. A few people blah the system.. fucking hell ,how many at the top do you think do it. But that example I gave is not something from a humane society. I think the focus is on cost rather than need . The case you mention is truly horrific I seriously believe we don’t support those who need help enough and support those who don’t too much . My experience of benefits is limited and I suspect most people learn from tabloids . " I don't doubt people are playing the system But that happens everywhere.

" The actual published figures are £33k per child in foster care and £131-135k a full time care home. So the bottom end of Bensherman1’s estimate on his post is correct. Funding over the last 10 years has been cut in all areas . The worst area in London by 17% but that’s an exception as most in the South East is less than that. The average cuts in the North are 33% . This comes about with the governments biased and broken long running view that more money should go into successful areas. It’s the same reason Public transport spending in London is £3500-4500 per head, per year whilst in Newcastle it’s £300 Manchester £700 | |||

"Councils coming forward to say they will make provisions for school holiday lunches. Isn't this is what they should be doing anyway with additional funding they are being fed by the government? What's happening to this funding that is to be managed and distributed by local authorities to support those most in need? Are the families most in need not aware their local authority can provide support. " I think this is at least part of the problem, along with reluctance to ask for help. Universal Credit, was a good idea to simplify the whole complex system. Shame about the execution though. | |||

"Seriously, why did the Tories vote to deny starving kids food? Even if you set aside morality, they must have been able to see how incredibly unpopular this would be. No one has voted to deny starving kids food. That is a ridiculous statement. Those who voted against the proposal are probably the more responsible members of society who believe that public expenditure should be directed towards those most in need and not given out on a blanket basis . Steps have already been taken via amendments to the Universal Credit system to address the issue in addition to more local authority funding during the crisis for a variety of key areas . Any fool can vote for additional expenditure when it is not their money. At least those voting against the request are taking a responsible attitude. Maybe the issue to be addressed is how parents are spending their Universal Credit and child benefit . Help is available on an individual basis for those most in need " Quite right, how else can we afford to keep paying our struggling consultant class 6600 per day if we just waste money feeding hungry kids. | |||

See the old blame the poor excuse that was trotted out above. But I think, for others, this act will be the final step. I hope so, especially when the comparison is made to the billions handed out willy-nilly to companies run by mates, that have failed to deliver on their contracts.

"Rishi Sunak has been “barred for life” from a pub in his own constituency after ministers refused to back free school meals for poor children over Christmas. The Mill pub and its restaurant Il Mulino in North Yorkshire’s Stokesley will refuse entry to the chancellor and three northern Tory MPs – Jacob Young, Simon Clarke and Matt Vickers – after they voted down a motion to end holiday hunger amid the pandemic this winter." Maybe they shouldnt have voted them in? | |||

Many of those affected are actually (on paper at least) still employed. But with lockdowns being enforced businesses are having to shut up shop.

The majority of kids who are going hungry is because their parents don’t have a clue how to look after them combined with a lack of money. Low horizons and poor education. In some cases it’s just child abuse but I’m not qualified to talk on that and knowing the little I do I realise it’s just horrific. This government is showing it can beat all previous governments in wasting our money on friends and bullshit. I noted a comment earlier. We subsidise MP’s alcohol and food while they are supposedly at work but can’t agree to more money for hungry kids. ( I don’t care why they are hungry they are hungry today and so we should feed them and then deal with why) | |||

" If this thread is anything to go by. The average Tory voter doesn't have much empathy for starving kids and isn't going to stop voting for them. So they don't need to worry." That is exactly what the first response (about 25 metres up ^) said. And sadly, I suspect you are both right. But I do wish these conversations actually developed. And that people trimmed the quotes. </grump> | |||

"Another Tory mp had to apologise today after she tweeted "good to see all them business's helping to feed the kids that their business has picked up,so they will no longer require state help".
