‘Nanny state’? In the ‘50s the govt believed all kids should grow up healthily. Thus we were given orange juice, free milk, vitamins & cod liver oil. We had school doctors, nurses and we got free NHS dentistry. Today kids have rotten teeth, rickets , and are fed via foodbanks.

@carolvorders This is where demonisation of us oldies falls down. Grandmas &Grandpas all over the country are minding grandchildren FREE so our kids can work &pay taxes, despite #BorisJohnson saying our lives weren’t worth saving during Covid Am I allowed to say Fuck Off Boris Johnson? Am I?
