The uprising begins?
Top lad ,great talent.
Tory MPs: Footballers need to do their bit in this pandemic.
Marcus Rashford: Feed poor and hungry children.
Tory MPs: Stick to football Marcus
He is a breath of fresh air and clearly hasn’t forgotten his roots. He will win on this in the end. Another uturn from the Tories next week I suspect
Lovely man.
the disappointing thing is that we even need to have MR doing this, how did a 1st world country get to such a stage where kids are going hungry
Rashford has more integrity and social awareness than this entire government put together.
The current administration should be ashamed over the vote on the funding of school meals.
Where does this fit in with the priorities of Homelessness, NHS funding, Housing and feeding Asylum Seekers, Mental Health Funding, Covid Bail Outs, Police Reform, Smaller Classes, Cutting Carbon Emissions, Foreign Aid Budget?
Great to see a local MP sticking to his guns and voting against the bill in Alun Cairns. This the same bloke who recently claimed MP expenses for buying the Sunday Sun, Sunday Telegraph, The Mail on Sunday, Daily Telegraph, The Sun and The Daily Mail.
Wonder if he’s sabotaged any rape cases recently?
All of those should be a priority But for the Tories they are not and never will be, sadly.
And if each of those issues had a Marcus Rashford they would be higher priorities and higher up in the public discourse.
The reason why school meals is Rashfords issue is that he was a recipient of free school meals therefore personally passionate about the issue.
I also received free school meals for a time when my parents were struggling to pay the bills during the mid 80s. They worked hard and didn't waste money, but times were tough. I find some of the comments and attacks on parents on twitter appalling. Yes some parents are negligent but they are the exception not the rule.
I can only think some people dislike the public admiration of this young man because they hate the piss poor government of their choice being shown up for it's callousness.
Rob is there anywhere in town that’s accepting Xmas presents for under privelaged children? Do the food bank take Xmas presents? Me and the missus have decided to spend a bit less on the girls this year and buy a few gifts for the poor. I got to be honest it’s the likes of Marcus Rashford that have made me think more of doing this kind of thing. How anyone could dislike him for trying to do his best to feed hungry children is mind boggling.
There'll be a number of shoe box appeals about and I'd imagine collection points in Merthyr with Samaritans and Salvation Army do the national ones. The council usually have a scheme to although I'm not sure how the pandemic has affected that? Always a decent cause and I'm no lover of the happy clapper brigades.
Perhaps I'm being a little facetious about people wanting kids to go hungry. I cant believe anyone would be that big of a cuunt. Apart from 320 Tory MPs who obviously are.
