Your School Dinner. "a basic right".

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Wednesday March 30, 2005 14:37author by Ní thuigeann an sách an seang is má thuigeann, ní in am Report this post to the editors

(in Ireland alone there are 200,000 minimum without proper nutrition)

As we know the vast majority of children on this Earth don't get fed enough. They don't even get vaccines.
But in the occidental tradition, the campaign for proper nutrition has long formed a basic demand of those interested in the well being of our children.

Every teacher will tell you, that their work is undermined more often than not in deprived areas by the presence of "hunger" in the classroom.

Ireland as one of the richest countries in the world could do well to emulate poorer states such as the UK and Switzerland in the providing of nutritious meals to its children, and incidently employment to those who would cook those meals.
be warned! you lardy types don't understand me @ all.
be warned! you lardy types don't understand me @ all.

A petition by the television chef Jamie Oliver in Britain with 271,000 signatures has been accepted by Tony Blair (antichrist) and the Education minister Ruth Kelly (opus dei four children not be confused with the IRA member of the same name who went missing in the 1980s) to create a "healthy eating plan" for the school going urchins of Engurland and Cymru costing the exchequer (primrose pasha Brown) £220million.

This is a commitment of 50p to every brit urchin excluding scottish bairns who get more.

50p is the equivalent of less than one Irish Euro.

You can buy a lot with one irish Euro. You can get a ryanair flight to anywhere with one irish Euro. You can by two mars bars. You can buy some bread.

"the price of a cup of tea" In which I highlighted to you the comparative costs of basic foodstuffs in Europe in october 2004. You ought by now be fully aware that Ireland suffers 12.5% obesity and is ranked amongst the highest in the EU for "food poverty" amongst the deprived.

.:. These are intolerable wrongs .:.

There is no economic reason, (unless the Government have been lying to you, God Forbid, that the Irish State can not provide the children of the state with basic healthy nutrition).

So ask them.
Write an effing big postcard and send it to the lardy boys and girls of the Oireachtas.





The BBC have looked at typical school dinners in France, (poorer than Ireland) Norway (little bit richer than Ireland) Ukraine ( my beloved Julia's realm) and the USA.

It will not surprise you to know that US kids if they get past the metal detectors are typically offered a can of fizzy drink and a burger.

The Telly Chef has given the plans of the British Hun government a cautious welcome-
