Yesterday’s announcement about giving every child from a family who qualifies for Universal Credit free school meals will benefit nearly 3000 children in Stroud - a saving of £500 per child.
That’s nearly £1.5m going directly back into our local economy.

🚨 NEW: Labour is lifting 100,000 children out of poverty by expanding access to free school meals.
Alongside free breakfast clubs, cheaper uniform costs and government-funded childcare, Labour is putting money in parents’ pockets and giving children the best start in life.

Yesterday, I asked the Minister if he will look at reviewing excessive sentences for peaceful protestors - and I welcome his commitment to doing so.
The right to protest is a cornerstone of our democracy. We must continue to protect it.
