Tories attack on breakfasts for children

A total of 1,000 schools in Wales have now signed up to the Welsh Assembly Government's free breakfast programme, started six years ago.
It was launched to make sure the poorest children did not start the school day hungry and in the last year cost more than £8m.
But the Conservatives say that money could be better spent on the education budget because parents should be responsible for feeding their own children.
In an ideal world, yes. But we are far from in an ideal world.
Some parents, sadly do not look after their children well enough, for a variety of reasons - perhaps because of poverty, poor parenting skills, drug or alcohol problems. The reasons are numerous and varied.
A full stomach will undoubtedly help those children, who would otherwise get little or nothing at home, concentrate and learn at school.
It's a scheme which should be expanded not scrapped. It does prove that it really is the same only Tories.
