Excellent plan. Effectively, social services can repossess a child at the moment but the powers they have aren't strong enough. We just need better regulation of the parenting. Like what happened to the banks in 2008.

Problem solved through hard work and creativity you'd expect from Palace. Up yours Marcus Rashford. Stop trying to cover up crap performances with stupid ideas. School's should concentrate on teaching. You should concentrate on football. 3-1

I cannot overstate how dreadful this post is. No wonder the other site no longer accepts such comments.

The children aren't ignorant or selfish are they? You sacrifice the innocents.

As for the 'uneducated underclass' that has 'filled up the country' there is no doubt that such people are helping you to maintain your lifestyle and health.

As a matter of interest 11% of children were living in households with persistent low income between 2013 and 2017. In FYE 2018, 12% of children fell below the threshold of low income and material deprivation in the UK. And you write this off as not your problem, only that of their parents.

FYI, in schools it is the white low income children that do least well. The most materially deprived (Bangladeshis and pakistanis) actually do quite well so very soon you will need to change your words to white uneducated underclass.

We need to care, look after the children and consider the future. Apart from the basic humanity - which seems to pass you by - there is also self-interest in avoiding the development of large groups of helpless people. We need to provide support not snarling derision.

You and they can't handle the truth.

I suggest you get off your moralising self righteous high horse because the fact is that too many people have children they can't afford and too many spend money on themselves rather than feeding their kids.

All the time mass immigration allows more and more potential low earners to arrive here, the problem will get bigger.

What are parents on minimum wage who can't work at the moment due to lockdown restrictions only getting two thirds of their wages meant to do?

Nope, that’s not what I said at all, is it.

If you lose your job etc that is entirely different. But why have kids if you don’t work? Some girls I know have gone on to have many kids and yet they have literally never done a days paid work in their life!

All these kids have to be paid for. Parents need to take responsibility for their own children.

One day Dan you and your boyfriend may wish to adopt, I just hope you will be responsible daddies.

Didn't Dan say a while ago he was married? Strange that you make an assumption he has a boyfriend. It's almost as though you are trying to use homosexuality as a weapon against someone you disagree with.

Returning to the point, I think this says it all really:
