Free school meals, Labour's new big idea
Could someone explain to me why it should be necessary to provide every primary school pupil with a free meal, when I would guess that 95% of parents can well afford to do so?Maybe I'm just an old cynic, but is it more to do with class spite and to punish people who choose to provide their children with the best of educations at their own expense?
If this is the best that Labour can do as a big policy idea then they will truly sink without trace.
In a word, Pathetic.

Maybe I should stop playing the fool and write a paper. Piaget and nutrition?Do free school meals for everyone ensure greater achievement at primary school leading to greater skills in later life and thus solve any future skill shortages in this country.
I would need copious funding though.
