I generally agree with you but just playing devil's advocate, I think Rashford used his voice and position well to make good effective change.

There's definitely positive examples yes. But by golly are they rare and mostly something we can only judge on the surface. Geniunely appreciate Rashys work a lot but I'm saddened he even has to do that level of advocating for such a no brainer

Yeah you'd think starving children = bad is a fairly easy position for all of us to get behind.

But Tories gonna Tory.

Tories: "We have to leave the EU to take care of our own."

Starving British kids: "So does that mean we'll finally have food?"

Tories: "Eww, no, fuck off."

When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist. - Hélder Câmara

Entire leave campaign should be in prison for treason. It wasn't up for debate whether the country would be worse off economically, it was a fact, one which every credible economist confirmed.

The greatest victory of the populist right wing over the last 20 years has beento equate being told things about certain topics by someone with experience and knowledge in the field with being called a racist/idiot

Just when I think the rage I have over Brexit subsides this image brings it right back. Thank you very much
