1. It’s unfair to the child to make them suffer for the omissions of the parent. Whilst this principle shouldn’t be applied absolutely, when there’s a relatively easy solution, such as FSMs, that seems prima facie wise.
2. Parents are unlikely to be able to feed children at school anyway; the question is whether they pay.
3. This is explicitly a one-off intervention amidst a cost of living crisis.

1. Not always, and this elides substantial variance between governments.
2. UK school meals aren’t very good (better than the worst American ones though). That said, they won’t be any worse due to this subvention, since the funding at a school level will remain the same.
