London’s mayor has announced an emergency program to provide free meals for all children attending state primary schools in the capital, adding to a string of fresh evidence that Brits are struggling to afford necessities. “The cost-of-living crisis means families and children across our city are in desperate need of additional support,” Sadiq Khan, who himself received free school meals as a child, said in a statement Monday.
More than 80% of food banks reported a significant number of people needing help for the first time, as well as an increase in the number of people needing ongoing support rather than occasional food parcels. Just over a third of organizations said they had served staff working for the National Health Service , which has been hit with successive strikes since December over pay and working conditions.
Great initiative! It should be done nationally. No child should go hungry and surely not in a wealthy western country.

Homelessness is going to sky rocket if it hasn't already. Not good. Because everybody is moving to Texas and Florida! Where states are actually ran by sensible people.
