#FreeSchoolMeals On the left £30 of food. On the right what private company Chartwells have supplied having been awarded a government contract to supply for £30 free school meals. Utterly shameful profiteering off some of the country's most disadvantaged kids!

Sorry, it's not a question of leave or remain. Despite the warnings, Article 50 was triggered before a plan had been agreed on. 2 years of dithering later, we're still nowhere near ready. The logical thing is to stop the clock until we are.

A policy of deporting ‘undesirable’ people, to invisibly meet their fate in a far off location, is chillingly familiar. Just so we’re clear what road we’re travelling here.

So we no longer have the right to protest in the uk. These people were arrested pre-emptively for 'conspiracy to cause a public nuisance'. What you feel about their cause doesn't matter - there will be other issues that you do care about. Best not make a nuisance about them.
