Scotlands kids to get free breakfast and lunch under new plans

[Oz and the Orchestra]

The latest scandal is that billions were awarded to companies of Gov. Tory friends to produce PPI for the pandemic who had no experience in producing such vital safety protection while companies who had experience but no Tory connections were bypassed. One thing we will all remember is how for months Hospitals, Care homes, etc could not get the PPI they needed and people died because of it.

If it's more important for Gov. to divert taxpayers money to finance their already rich friends pretending to be PPI producers and this during a pandemic then we the public should at least demand some Taxpayers money goes to a legitimate and worthwhile cause and there is nothing more worthwhile than kids health and development.

The government can't do anything right, and now you want them in charge of feeding even more children.....you are a fool.

During a pandemic, you do not give Gov. contracts worth billions to produce PPI to your friends who don't know how to, when there are specialist comps who do and are ignored. People should be going to prison.

Why do you stick up for criminal corruption?

Conservatives reply......Fuk you kid...Get a Job

I'm independent and I say stop fuking having kids if you can't take care of them.

BTW, the planet is grossly overpopulated as it is already.

Maybe people had kids before they fell on hard times ?

..it just promotes people to not have any financial or familial responsibility = the kids grow up the same = cycle continues

Growing children with developing brains need good nutrition. Just hoping all parents will provide it doesn't work as a policy. I hear your objection, but the problem isn't the kids and they shouldn't have to suffer for it.

putting the government in charge of nutrition is what led to one third of Americans being morbidly obese

What do you mean, the government is in charge of nutrition? They don't do my menu planning.

The government puts out its food pyramid and subsidizes meat egg and dairy farmers all in a bid to get people to eat that stuff. The Standard American Diet is a direct result of not only the government but of the big money from the meat and dairy industries who own the politicians who then give them subsidies

and who do you think chooses the "free" meals handed out by government institutions like schools?

Protein is necessary. The food pyramid doesn't make people fat. Over processed convenience foods and fast foods on every corner do. People are too busy to cook, or they're doing the easy thing. People tend to do the easier thing when it's available. You want to get rid of frozen meals and Hamburger Helper, seasoned rice in a microwaveable pouch, beef stew in a can? They're even selling mashed potatoes in the dairy aisle, crappy meals in the deli counter.

There you go repeating the government line.

You don't have to eat animals to get protein. Where do you think grazing animals get all the protein to make the muscle tissue you eat?

Dairy products are shielded from market forces by subsidies keeping them cheap and keeping the dairy industry rich. But you don't see those subsidies for fresh veg and fruits do you?

That is the government manipulating the public to buy what they want them to buy so as to keep the people who own them rich.

If you want to be a vegan that's your choice, but humans are designed as omnivores. Deal with it.

. We are not designed as anything since there are people who are healthy and thriving without eating meat or any animal products at all your assertion that we have to be omnivores and eat meat is wrong.

people do not have to eat meat to get adequate protein.

but hey why not eat a product that is basically rotting flesh pumped full of hormones and antibiotics and preservatives because the government tells you that you have to eat meat to be healthy.

Omnivores are equipped to eat both. Go start a thread in Health and Lifestyles about your damned diet. It has nothing to do with schools feeding kids.

Sure it dopes since the government recommendations cause hearty disease, hypertension, Type 2 diabetes etc.

HALF of all adults in the US are on high blood pressure meds and who know how many more have undiagnosed hypertension. All that is from the standard American diet

And you really want the fucking government in charge of feeding kids?

The government doesn’t recommend Americans eat too much and gorge on sugar and junk food.

That’s why Americans are in poor health, not because of what government recommends.

That's bullshit.

Not all those people on high blood pressure meds are obese slobs who eat 20 Big Macs a day.

I know because I was one of them. I have been a health and exercise nut since i was a teenager never was overweight but I had to take high blood pressure medications. I gave up meat and all animal products and 9 months later I am off high blood pressure medications.

Heart disease is the number one killer in the US but a vegan diet reverses heart disease, reverses type 2 diabetes and cures hypertension.

SNP pledges free breakfast and lunch for primary pupils all year round

Scotland’s education secretary, John Swinney, vows to dramatically extend free school meals policy

www.theguardian.com

Scotland could become the first UK nation to provide free breakfasts and lunches to every primary school child all year round, after the SNP pledged to do so if re-elected next May.

Speaking at the party’s conference, the Scottish education secretary, John Swinney, made the policy commitment as he claimed that the UK chancellor Rishi Sunak’s “second wave of austerity” would unleash a “tsunami of child poverty” in Scotland.

Sensible socialism in action. Nobody gets left behind.

Fucking stupid Socialism.
