Fed children learn better, if they have a good education, they can get good jobs that will make your life better. Parents not needing to worry about paying for school meals can then put the money toward other things that can make their life better for their family like Education or Rent, or hell, having a little bit of money for a little treat because guess what, money moving about is what keeps the economy functioning: yes, you heard, it's that fucking simple.

People who think CHILDREN deserve to eat because "they're not their kids" and that people should pull themselves up by their boot straps and be self sufficient are also the same fuckers who can't do anything useful but think they're "self sufficient" because they can pay someone else to do it. You want more people to help your life be better? FEED THEM AS KIDS.

So in my city we have a group of streets called <Place> Road. For example: There's...

Glasgow Road

London Road

Queensferry Road

Lanark Road

Old Dalkeith Road

Dalkeith Road

Corstorphine Road

North and South Queensferry: Literally was a place where a Ferry, set up by Queen Margaret, was. Ran until the 60s when they built a road bridge. Gaelic name is "Port Na Banrighnan" (Queen's Port).

Leith, comes from the Gaelic word for "Damp", a port town where the Water of Leith comes into the Forth.

Cramond, comes from something like "Caer Avon", meaning "Riverfort". It's where the river Almond (coruption of the Celtic word for River) comes out into the Forth, and there was a Roman Fort there.

Liberton; corruption of "Leper Town", there as a leper colony there.

Beautiful sights, York, Whitby, The Yorkshire Dales and moors, even the food is good, a roast with Yorkshire puddings is great, as are the pies.
