As paediatricians, we are shocked by the refusal of the UK government to extend the provision of free school meals in England to children from low-income backgrounds during the school holidays. Childhood hunger is an issue that should transcend politics.
rcpwells We all can see the banners and read the Guardian, but where is the evidence of the 'Starving - suffering or dying from hunger' in the UK, just 'ONE' example please that has not been subject to parental abuse!
Why aren't they worried about childhood obesity & diabetes?
Last week you were saying most of school children are suffering from obesity ,now, can you make your minds ? You really don’t seem to have a brain cell between you !
I expect more from the paper than this tripe
How many children die a year in the UK from starvation?
Why are you illustrating this with photos of the SWP rape apologist Antisemites?
Why do you keep putting this SWP shit in the pictures?
More free promotion for the Socialist Worker Party and their fronts. Reckon I'll find a differently-illustrated story to retweet.

All around the world, conservatives are the same.
Do those kids with banners think theres a famine...
My MP drcarolinej is also a paediatrician but being a loyal Tory she voted against them. Hope her next shit is a hedgehog.
What are the stats on child starvation in the UK? Instead of messing around with voucher schemes can't they just raise child benefit by £15 a week?
Really? Anyone seen any of these starving children? Nope? Didn't think so ...
From a few UK paediatricians should be the headline. Yet again the guardin comic shows us why few read this comic.
But inaction over child grooming gangs is fine?
Sound like rigged election Trump happened there too.
