You get benifits if you work zero hours, child support including, but nowa days they probaly spend £30 on new nails rather than food.What if the only job you can get is a zero hours one and some weeks you don't get any work while others you get a pittance?
Didn't say they shouldn't get free meals, I simply said if you can't afford to feed youre child you are doing something wrong.And the child should starve because it’ll teach the parent a lesson? Isn’t collective punishment a war crime?

Food bank stats from the Trussell Trust showed a significant rise up to March, you can guess it'll have gone through the roof by this time when the next stats come out. By all means lazily blame the individuals en masse but have a look here first

Im not sure how that’s here or there. I’m not interesting in moralising, I just don’t want to see kids punished for their parents supposed crimes. Unless you’ve got the stones to attempt mass castration, once those kids are born they deserve as full a shot at life as anyone, regardless of how shit their parents are. So all the two minute single-mums-with-iPhones hate achieves is accidentally making it worse for those in genuine need while those you rant about crack on regardless (note how it’s moved on from “flat screen TVs” now you can’t buy any other sort, my ten year old has a fucking iPhone).
This “deserving poor” bollocks has been around as long as poverty has and it’s always a weaselly excuse for inaction. I’m so tired of hearing it come back, and as I say it’s always under the Tories that we suddenly discover this epidemic of laziness, wastefulness and bad parenting. Weird how it tracks exactly with poverty.
If you genuinely believe there’s parents out there spending cash on nails rather than feeding their kids then you should be campaigning for more funding for social services.
There was a post in the paper the other day about a women complaining she couldn't feed her children, guess what she turned out to be a druggy, unfortunately there are selfish people out there who care about there own needs over there children's and belive it or not actual family members of mine probsky explains why I've lost 7 cousins to social services because there mums just couldn't look after children spending money on weed hair phones ect, so I've seen it 1st hand.Im not sure how that’s here or there.

Lets be honest if you can't afford to feed your child you're doing something incredibly wrong.
Elaborate way to get in that you've shagged a couple of birds off tinder mate, show offI’ll start this with I’ve had a beer.
I genuinely don’t give a fuck now. Since lockdown ended I’ve been to the pub at least 5 times a week. I’ve been there with friends and family. I’ve met my 90 year old grandad in the pub every weekend. My dad is high risk, he’s in the pub every day. My Uncle is high risk. Every day also. I’ve been smashing about on Tinder, I’ve been out in Cheltenham and Nottingham to name two for the ride. My 5 year old is back at school and currently on holiday in Cornwall with the ex wife. And there’s more “stories” that wouldn’t have meant anything last year.
I started it washing food deliveries in the sink. I’ve worked through the lot. I’m bored of it.
I’m not negating the seriousness of what’s going on. I’m just done with it. But saying that. I wear a mask and I wash my hands and try to distance myself from people a bit.
Came on to post this. Good article.A room, a bar and a classroom: how the coronavirus is spread through the air
The risk of contagion is highest in indoor spaces but can be reduced by applying all available measures to combat infection via aerosols. Here is an overview of the likelihood of infection in three everyday scenarios, based on the safety measures used and the length of exposureenglish.elpais.com

I’ve noticed senior managers are immune too and so don’t have to follow measures. We should get them on the front line and off the emails.Confirmed case in my office.
Email from the CEO this morning saying it is closed for deep cleaning and plans to open again on Monday.
A few of the directors haven't been sticking to the rotas and coming in every day anyway - I bet it is one of them.
They can get fucked if they think I am going in next week.

Where’s that?We have two hot desks in the office and the policy is anyone that is only in the office one day a week (me for example), has to book a desk for their given days.
The sales manager who is supposed to be in 3 times per week is going in every single day, and when I arrived on Friday, was sitting at the desk that I booked. He just told me to go and sit on another desk.
I bet it is him who has the virus.
We're supposed to be bubbling, which would be great...if one of the managers didn't decide they wanted to cross each and every bubble to get involved.We have two hot desks in the office and the policy is anyone that is only in the office one day a week (me for example), has to book a desk for their given days.

The bit about shouting is interesting. Since our local reopened it’s regularly had live bands on and I’ve often thought that can’t be helpful. Having loads of drunk people in a close vicinity to each other talking to each other is one thing but changing the environment by adding live music and having everyone shout at each other clearly adds unnecessarily risk to the situation. Probably best to cancel music licenses for pubs.Covid-19: Nearly 100,000 catching virus every day - study

If you want to keep transmitting the virus then sure.

You can't crush the first group for the failings of the second, either, anymore than you should confiscate everybody's assets because there are some tax avoiders in society.I'm fairly sure one of the government advisors said moths ago that if you want to stop the virus spreading and keep schools open you need to shut everything else.
it's quite simple:
kids are hungry because they're parents can't feed them through no fault of their own - society should feed them
kids are hungry because their parents are negligent - society should feed them
and if you don't agree don't moan when malnourished, feral kids turn into teenage menaces.

If you know you are positive you can make sure you do everything to reduce your risk. The unintended consequence of this though may be not getting tested without symptoms and it spreading. It’s certainly the lesser of two evils (i think!!) I’m not certainAsymptomatic covid +ve doctors in Belgium being told to keep working in hospitals.......unbelievable & frightening.

Exactly this, now who is that has spent years cutting funding for those services?If you genuinely believe there’s parents out there spending cash on nails rather than feeding their kids then you should be campaigning for more funding for social services.
I had a look at how much I would get on beneifts if I lost my job. I would be entitled to the maximum UC which is £409.89 a month, although UC is scheduled to get a large cut in April 2021. My mortgage is £560 a month. Struggle to believe a lot of people on benefits are living a life of luxury at the taxpayers expense.You get benifits if you work zero hours, child support including, but nowa days they probaly spend £30 on new nails rather than food.

Society will not recover if we do it again to save a few thousand lives of very old or vulnerable people.
The co-occurrence of high prevalence and rapid growth means that the second wave of the epidemic in England has now reached a critical stage. Whether via regional or national measures, it is now time-critical to control the virus and turn R below one if further hospital admissions and deaths from COVID-19 are to be avoided.
