But then they need medical treatment on the NHS which is paid for by OUR money- not just their's! So we are stakeholders in ensuing that the State gets value for our money in ensuring that the children in question do not get fed through fences by stupid parents!

BTW, the parents are standing in a cemetery...on people's graves. How selfish can these people get?

Colonel:

What part of the last para of my post:
"The rest of us also have the freedom and the right to elect governments to make rules about the self induced obese and people with illnesses brought on by bad diets and habits such as smoking, illegal drugs and excess use of alcohol having to pay more and wait longer for treatment when their ill chosen freedom catches up with them - but, strangely, the same nanny state then gets all PC about them and talks about discrimination."
Didn't you understand?
