| TheyWorkForYou website record of how our MPs voted on Free school Meals During School Holidays |
Letter to Hereford Times
Daily Mirror reports that a Lancashire shop has banned
the local Tory MP after he voted against free school meals, while
Yorkshire Live reports that Rishi Sunak and all Tory MPs have been
banned from a North Yorkshire pub for the same stance against poor
families.(1)(2)
What actions will Hereford
Times readers take against Herefordshire MPs Jesse Norman and Bill
Wiggin for also helping defeat the extension of free school meals,
particularly as Jesse Norman is First Secretary of the Treasury and Bill
Wiggin has links with offshore finance?(3)
In 2017, Bill Wiggin responded to "a front page story in the Hereford Times outlining his position as
managing director of an offshore financial company by stating that the
article was 'not news'."(3)
As
the Daily Mirror and YorkshireLive stories emphasise, constituents can
help to make the news, whereas my experience of Jesse Norman MP is that
he tends to 'note' my views while voting against them, and the top-ups
to Bill Wiggin's basic MP salary could pay for several school meals.
