Things like this make it very easy to start thinking conspiratorially and questioning just why it is that those in charge want low-income children on less nutritional diets.

[Molly Elisabeth Long @MollyELong]

I'm not one to abstain from junk food, and think actually sometimes it can be important in developing a healthier relationship with food...

[Molly Elisabeth Long @MollyELong]

But the gov pushing low-income families toward eating ultra-processed food every day during the hols instead of providing widely-accessible nutritious food is such a hideous dereliction of duty toward children

"sorry for asking so many questions haha" -me, a journalist

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

I’m so sad to learn that Dawn Foster has died so young. She was a wonderful journalist & a beautiful writer who used her talent to expose injustice. Through her journalism she gave voice to those who are rarely heard. My thoughts are with all those who love her. Such a sad loss.

[Molly Elisabeth Long @MollyELong]

Spoke with arts universities recently about how they really feel about the perennial threat of budget cuts. A big point is that the "dismissive" attitude towards creative education is just as damaging as funding cuts: https://t.co/y4aQsiKuqi
