Giving meals to kids is a simple YES. How could any MP argue and vote against it ? Judging parents behaviour, income, spending preferences etc. is a quite seperate issue and relates to the adults. It's the UK in 2020 ... all children should be able to guarantee having one prepared hot meal a day ... that in place, discussions can continue. Rog That's what the first post was about - yet Gazza threw a wobbly and Patty called it a 'pile of dung'.

I didn't read your opening post as being sympathetic to the cause of free meals, rather ridiculing it. Sometimes it's difficult to understand what, if any, point you are making naughtyfox ... I'm sorry if I misunderstood your purpose. Rog

Nope, I see nothing wrong with it - unless you think malnutrition and poverty for children is funny. Some Thunderboaters have asked me "Don't you know Jonathon Pie is a comedian?" suggesting to me that they would take this rant of his to be amusing and nonsensical. Now, just who on here told me JP is a comedian and his outpourings are rubbish? Own up!

No ... not the video ... your accompanying comments.

No ... not the video ... your accompanying comments. Sarcasm, obviously. See above. In fact, I have the feeling you are one who told me anything JP says is to be ignored as comedy trash. Was it you? Hmmm.... ("you do realise, naughtyfox, that Jonathon Pie is a comedian?" ... I know someone here said that within this past year)

The purpose of Pie's video's are to be entertaining to watch.
His rants can be on any subject matter, on either side of a political view ... he is not left, right or centre ... he is an entertainer.
Your accompanying comments in the opening post did not appear sarcastic to me ... they appeared to be ridiculing the protest.
My mistake and I apologise.
It is not always possible to know what someone's written post is subtly suggesting ... easy face to face ... but not so easy in writing and certainly not obvious !

I only starved Gazza once. (Don’t know how to tag him) When I taught evening classes at Tech twice a week it was Gazza’s job to cook the the evening meal. One evening he hadn’t bothered. I went to the chippy to get pie and chips. Came back, plated it and started eating. He asked where his was. I said still in the freezer. I got my evening meals after that! Thats the kind of parenting we do. Often people moaned at us because we didn't say, have a guard around a heater. But we warn them its hot and if they ignored us and touched it, they didn't then touch it again. Obviously we didn't have it too hot but enough to make them only do it the once. Never starved them though although I guess that was a key life lesson right there. P.s use the @ and without a space write the forum name. It won't work with everyone as some people have a different name displaying but will work with Gazza.

Rog No need for an apology, a simple "gotcha!" suits me. I am an old 'Socialist' and quite unlike the David Cameron's and George Osborne's who burn £50 notes in front of homeless people. My sarcasm was highlighting JP's rant. I find it fully disgusting that Tory cronyism leads to that old bag Dido Harding raking in thousands of £££ of public money - appointed head of Track & Trace with no other tenders / competition - the very woman responsible for spreading Covid-19 thanks to her insistence that the Cheltenham races went ahead in the midst of this pandemic. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8933571/Coronavirus-Dido-Harding-claims-Test-Trace-didnt-predict-demand-surge-schools-went-back.html#reader-comments "Like a lot of people in positions like this and the cabinet she is not qualified or in possession of the skills necessary to do the job. Another friend of a friend appointment" "Where do we find these idiots? Why do they get to a high position with massive salaries on no apparent ability?" "Not fit for purpose. She is there for the money and pension" "She's being over paid for doing absolutely nothing." "Dido Harding is a serial business failure, I wouldn't expect anything different from this woman."

To be honest, darling, having children... isn't all it's cracked up to be. Given my chance again, I'm not sure I'd have any. And now it's the winter of my life... and I haven't actually got anything of my own. I've got no power, no real career... no--no sex life. I've got no life at all. I'm like the grasshopper who sang all summer. I'm like Germaine sodding Geer.

You see ... sorry naughtyfox but I've no idea what your jumbled collection of quotes is supposed to be communicating to me about your opinions, beliefs or thoughts ... and I suspect others feel the same. Rog
