Um, It was always going to start up again. The food parcels were just to cover the gap.

A whole pound! Fancy.
Well done Marcus and RM.
It said to be next anyway but there was delays but I guess because of the backlash they sped it up. Also teachers I have spoken to have said there is so much red tape surrounding sending out heated food it's not possible.
Sorry Blurst I must have missed this, but when and where did jack lay down that a breakdown was her reason for anti-Corbyn stuff? X
It comes from the vouchers they were giving out to replace school meals during the last lockdown. They were £30 for 10 days food. Jack has assumed that the £30 is now going direct to Chartwells because the idea of the government using hampers to mask a cut in spending is too far fetched to be entertained apparently.
I'm certainly annoyed at Chartwells for the low quality of their offerings to date and hope the pressure will be kept up on them to ensure they deliver something decent from now on. However they are a private company doing what private companies do and trying to maximise profit. A better debate might look at whether or not private companies should be delivering the service at all. In my view we should be looking at Finland did and treating school meals as part of maintaining public health, making them properly nutritionally balanced and free to everyone up to the age of 16. Whilst this would cost more up front, if as in Finland it's done alongside good quality home economics education it would allow for longer term savings to be made on the NHS. Still that's quite boring and nowhere near as much fun as screeching at folk on Twitter.
Last night! Classic manipulation here. Scary. Squiggle was making a perfectly valid point and has no reason to feel guilty or responsible for Jack's emotional state.
Loads of blue tick type columnists, authors and journalists I follow are retweeting her with congratulations, now
We’re going to get some more cosplay today aren’t we, while the Twitter high lasts?

Gina, just in case you read here, all of what you are looking for is at the bottom right hand corner of the website. Contact numbers, cookie policy, terms and conditions, the lot.
Who are these people that are pushing their own agenda instead of keeping to the problem at hand? Feeding children that live below the poverty line should be front and centre, not whether Chartwell has a cookie policy on its website (it does)
Oh dear.
This Morning (who couldn't fit Jack in today apparently) are talking about the food boxes.
Phil Vickery is on. He's taking the phone in on 'Lockdown cookery' which is where people on a low income can ask him how to cook on a minimum budget.
Somewhere in Southend a crappy bungalow has had a small explosion just happen...

Is she implying she's said this in a live interview or in an article interview? I hope it's the live option, all the horrendous previous Cameron behaviour she's displayed will ensure she's cancelled. Or should, anyway. We know she squirms out of trouble by applying a victim persona.
bleeping hell. An ailment for every occasion. Someone must have bought her a nurses dictionary (very 60s thing we had at home) when she was 7!
There's always a medical excuse to fall back on, isn't there?
Christ Almighty, with what the Sidebar of Shame offers every day and all of the 'gram to peruse for leggings testing by fitness models, nobody needs to see grainy 12 year old mobile phone pictures of somebody working in a bar or the posed for a photographer crap we've already seen.She spoke about those bikini pics on the Instagram Live with Vix. Jack said she thinks they're worth a 'fair whack'.
She is irritating AF. She needs to fact check. “The majority of schools have shut their kitchens”
Not in my LA
I believe we’re still issuing vouchers too but I will check in the governors meeting later this week.
She thinks she speaks for everyone, it’s super annoying.
I cannot believe she didn’t sleep last night and instead spent her time on Twitter. Really unhealthy behaviour.

And she has proof?
Oh my god she's so grim. I didn't realise going through a stressful period of your life absolves you of everything and anything. I'll bear that in mind next time I want to chat tit about people.
There was a lot about Corbyn I disagreed with but I'd take him over Anna bloody Soubry. And I voted Labour and didn't spoil my vote or whatever the duck she did because it was the best chance of getting out of this austerity mess.
You'd think that would be the point of priority for her (except that her only priority *is* her).This tweet irritates me the most (in this nanosecond) and shows that Jack is not arsed if kids get fed, she wants to bash some cooperate folk! Isn’t the bleeping point, that you’re missing, about feeding kids, you twanker!
It's a strange thing, how against financial success (other people's, obv) she is. In this case, though, I think that because the firms are being paid by the government (so, by us), it's a legitimate, but secondary point, in respect of margins made.
I work for an LA and the national FSM voucher scheme was confirmed to be coming back last week as an option in case schools can't offer a suitable food parcel. Why doesn't she take any time to get a single fact straight? My pre teen has a more professional attitude than she does. Truly baffling and the polar opposite (as has been said) to how MR conducts himself.
You didn't answer the question.
She's going to take credit for this and add it to her list of 'achievements' for ever more now. It'll be the " I invented Healthy Start vouchers" all over again
