I am pleased to announce today that in Wales we have secured free school meal provision for all school holidays until at least Easter 2021.

The coronavirus pandemic has presented countless challenges this year, but with the Welsh Government now guaranteeing £11 million for these provisions, we can help support those who look to school for more than just education. 

People across the country have endured terrible hardships over the past six months. They’ve lost loved ones, lost livelihoods and been cut off from friends and family. 

We have made huge sacrifices and played by the Government’s rules – we deserve to have confidence that these rules will work. 

The Government have completely lost control of coronavirus across vast swathes of the country, and the situation in London is looking very difficult.
 
In the north of England, and now in London, the sacrifices of millions of people have been squandered by this Government.

On behalf of the Liberal Democrats, I have written to Equalities Minister Liz Truss calling on her to stop all forms of hair discrimination.

We must combat racism wherever we find it in our society, and this all-too-prevalent form of prejudice must end.

People across this country have endured terrible hardships over the past six months: losing loved ones, losing livelihoods and isolating from friends and family.

People are angry to see their hard work and sacrifices utterly wasted by the incompetence of Boris Johnson.

That’s why people are so angry to see their hard work and sacrifices utterly wasted by the incompetence of Boris Johnson.
