    The pressure on these poor children just breaks my heart.... It's so unfair that children have to worry about having food😢.

    I wonder if, this could be seen in another direction. Sugar makes people hungry. Maybe focus on protein; Beans, meat and legumes. Focus on seeds for veggies, or veggies that don't spoil. That would be cabbage, carrots, potatoes, onions and squash. Maybe get rid of the fridge. Also get rid of extra stuff. This makes it easier to take care of the house.

    Not having passed all the GCSEs is more than a self worth and self esteem hit, it’s an accomplishment that she didn’t achieve for herself, that she’s so mad, sad and infuriated with. It meant she’d have an excellent passport in education, and with that power to go and get what she’s destined for. With all she has been dealing with and gone through, is it any wonder why she didn’t achieve what she wanted? Children don’t do well when hungry, constantly uprooted, with no stability in their abode.

    Don't worry kiddies, when you become of working age, the Crown will be more than happy to take most of your wages when all is said and done. So sadly, you will feel right at home being poor for the rest of your life while the Royals are living the high life off of your backs, and OFF OF YOUR MONEY! You all in the UK need to ditch that "monarchy", and let these people EAT! PS) NO CHILD 0:50 should have to "be at school worrying" where their next meal is coming from! Insanity!

      It’s the billions of “migrants” that illegally flood into the UK. And the UK goverment, just like the US goverment, spends so much money on helping these illegals, instead of deporting them!
      Those illegals get , prioritized housing , money, and all sorts of goverment benifits.
      In the US they get free housing, a high amount of food stamps Cash money, medical care , money for furniture , free translators and free lessons in English ( which many dont bother to learn)
      Our governments prioritize helping the people who have entered our countries illegally. And provide very little help for the native, law abiding citizens .
      It breaks my heart that all,these beautiful Brits are suffering so much. And the same for all the Americans that are suffering.
      These aren’t people who are gaming the system to get as much free stuff as they can , having large numbers of children, and they are capable of working but don’t want to work.
      These people in the video and millions like them , are the “working poor” who are one paycheck away from homelessness, one catastrophic event in their lives and they are broke. These people want to work and provide for their families . This extreme poverty is not just affecting the adults , but the children and it will,have an effect on the children’s lives , maybe for their entire lives, definateky for a long time. Physical health, mental health are involved.
      Children are our future and we are doing them a huge disservice. We are allowing a generation to grow up in extreme poverty.
