When asked why it took Rashford – who called on the government to provide vouchers in the summer holidays last year to the 1.3 million children who were receiving free school meals in term time – to extend the policy, Ford claimed these plans were already imminent. “I had extended the free school meals to more groups of children right at the beginning of this lockdown,” she said.
