No surprises, just yet more sociopathy.

They argue that they are trying to do something about it. They have had 10 years and the situation has got worse.

Just look and listen to this:

Kate Green MP, Labour’s Shadow Education Secretary, has since called for an apology after Government Minister Paul Scully attempted to justify the Conservatives’ opposition to Labour’s motion to extend free school meals during holidays by saying that children have been going hungry for years.

Kate Green MP, Labour’s Shadow Education Secretary, said:

“This is a slap in the face for families struggling to make ends meet.

“Rising child poverty and more families going hungry is the shameful legacy of the Conservatives’ decade in power.

“Paul Scully should apologise for his disgraceful comment and Conservative MPs should do something about this injustice by supporting Labour’s plan to ensure no child goes hungry over Christmas.”
