Is this really where we’re at as a society? We have families who are so poor the council has to feed children every day of the year?

A Scottish council is planning to provide school meals 365 days a year to children from low income families.
North Lanarkshire Council said its proposal would help tackle "holiday hunger".
The "Food 365" programme would cover the 175 days of the year when lunches are not served in school.
If approved, the council will run a pilot project in the spring break and could then extend the scheme over the summer holidays.
