They don’t take responsibility though, that’s the problem. I don’t think the dude realises just how useless some parents can be.

    This is the closest I’ve ever seen a politician get to “Let them eat cake” (which would be better translated as “why don’t they just eat brioche?” when told people had no bread).

    If all our kids had marmite and sandwich bread, we wouldn’t be asking for school lunches.

    Marmite sandwiches are perhaps a good idea but Luxon should be directing Seymour to make that happen.

      But they are not a good idea at all. Kids should have a well balanced meal not a damned marmite sandwich. I could understand it on the side of a meal but not as a meal itself.
