    I didn't like the latest animal crossing game much.

    The irony is, that the whole forum knows who Peter chats with online, thanks to Kustard dropping him in it.

    I assume you are asking Pompey. You will have to wait until he reaches maturity.

    If he had concentrated on football he may have been able to score from the penalty spot like Harry Maguire.

    Maguire has a court case pending for him fighting in a Greek bar and trying to bribe a police officer.

    Rashford tried to make sure poor kids had food. He had no time to warm up, Southgate brought him on for 2mins before penalties.

    Yes white people are more susceptible to being criminals because of socioeconomic reasons and lack of youth clubs.

    We need to address the white community and help them to be better .

    I never really grasped the Rashford school meals thing. Am I right in thinking it mainly related to school holidays? If so, wouldn't the parents normally have to feed them?

    Even if it was because they were off school due to lockdown, it must be less expensive to feed them at home, and if they were on free meals anyway, it's unlikely their parents income went down by much.

    Have I missed the point?

    I'm not working and didn't apply for free school meals as 5 year olds get them free anyway got sent an email during half term with a £15 voucher to use in a supermarket.

    Didn't expect it but grateful.

    The narrative was that the Tory scum are starving kids and poor Marcus didn't have a father around as a kid and went hungry .

    The inconvenient truth was that was during the Labour government but it's a good cause still.

    If he donates his own ridiculous wealth towards impoverished children then that would be worthy of Saint like status but it's other people's tax contributions paying for it .

    Like foreign aid and putting "refugees " from France in 4 star hotels it's money which should be spent on our own people , we have lots of homeless people of our own that fall through the gaps at the expense of young fit healthy illegal immigrants and contracts handed to massive corporations as usual .

    I think the parents were too poor to feed the kids during the holidays and Boris in his wisdom did away with the free meals during that time,in truth they were too poor to feed them at any time,that was my take on it.

    Am I mixed up thinking it was a covid related issue? Are they suggesting kids get free school meals during all school holidays now? Surely, that was accounted for in the benefits system anyway?
