Lib Dems pledge to offer free school meals

The Liberal Democrats want to provide free school meals to all primary school children, in a manifesto pledge they said would be funded by a tax on share buybacks.

The party said it would start by immediately extending the scheme to provide school meals to all 900,000 children living in poverty who currently miss out.

Under the plan, all primary school children would be able to get free school meals once public finances stabilise.
