    Well, we just need to be clear on what we are trying to achieve here.

    Are we trying to fundamentally change kids eating habits, or make sure the disadvantaged have food at school?

    Not sugesting the state should be giving any old greasy rubbish with litres of coke... but I just hope they aren't being too idealogical about 'healthy eating' as that is a sure fire way of putting anyone off your food.

    We want to target the kids who really need it as much as possible and provide food that will actually eat.

    I also know of teachers in several schools who think that the policy is the best thing since, well, sliced bread.
    Kids are more engaged and learning more.

    I'm all for a review - so long as it is realistic and not Act ideology-driven.
    But ok if it’s woke leftist ideology driven.

    Bloody joke.

    Fair comment.
    You could fill them up with chips and KFC.
    My comment on changing eating habits was around giving them healthy food which they may not be used to eating.
    Some of this food, I suspect, some have never seen before.
    So healthy food but not in any ideological manner.
    I think we are on the same page here.

    10,000 meals a day not eaten and/or discarded - not to mention how many are half eaten or not eaten and chucked into the wastebins.

    Meanwhile, classrooms are begging for a coat of paint!

    Great business for the caterers, waste collectors and landfill owners.

    Just like the Ardern & Hipkins generosity towards the consultancy industry - billions $ spent with bugger all to show.

    Can you share links to this info?

    Not really a big surprise when you try to offer lunches for all instead of targeted assistance.

    Yeah I bet a bunch of people and organisations got a good feed out of Labour on this (pun intended).

    Criminal waste of food and taxpayers’ funds.

    Remember this was one of Clueless Cindy’s pet project implemented by Hapless Hipkins as Education Minister.

    We all know David Seymour is a massive c0ck, but would he have much of a platform without people like Joanna Kidman, who based on the statement being put forward in the media is a massive
    c*nt.

    It would be hilarious that someone from He Whenua Taurikura - New Zealand’s National Centre of Research Excellence for Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism comes up with the question "is this a Government or a death cult"? if it wasn't taxpayer money paying her wages.

    David says school lunches are expensive and don't work.

    Joanna says boot camps are expensive and don't work.

    Sounds like Joanna may have made part of David's job cutting govt expenditure a bit easier, bring on the boot camps for hungry kids. David is probably doing it out of love.

    What Joanna does not understand with her extreme views is that this govt does love their children, so much that they are doing all they can to ensure they have the best life possible. Maybe at the expense of other peoples children but who am I to judge.

    Do David and Brooke even have kids? Maybe there is a reason they hate paying for other people's kids. No point in making the great financial decision not to have kids then end up paying for someone elses.

    We know Chris Luxon loves children, he does not even like them being killed in the womb, although he can put up with it for a few votes.

    Of course he has a solid platform.
    The coalition is exposing the most corrupt, divisive government in our history.

    Joanna Kidman is but the latest to be outed for the racist woke leftist political appointee that she is (by Ardern) to push her government's divisive and socialist/communist agenda.

    It absolutely beggars belief that someone with such extreme and one-sided view can be the head of the Centre of Research Excellence for Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism!

    But another example of Arderns legacy. It will take considerable time to rectify the damage she inflicted on NZ.
