“Whether you agree with Marcus Rashfords causes or not” MOTD

This, resources are so abundant that even at a subsistence level no child should ever go hungry, the support this country already provides is more than enough to prevent this happening.

Lets look at a single parent family with one child. 100 pound a month they have added during this pandemic and with the standard child benefit on top we are talking nearly 200 pound a week.

I can easily buy a weeks shopping for a family of 3 for 50 pound at Lidl. Hell for the price of Netflix you can buy kilos of rice, pasta and beans with some cheese and tins of chopped tomatoes.

We already know throwing money at it doesn't solve the issue either. Tony Blair was doing this two decades ago and the poverty numbers are almost exactly the same.
