What should be the priorities of the Child Poverty Strategy?

I have no faith in the UK Government.

From experience of a Conservative led council , A strategy is a formal plan, but there are no laws to ensure policies will be followed and no consequences if not followed.

It's all down to show. A pretence . A half hearted attempt to tick a box that looks good on paper.

A Government that has politicians who profit from wars and genocide with their shares in the arms trade don't care if children survive or not, let alone ensure no child in the UK is left in poverty.

Millionaire MP's with their offshore banking to avoid paying tax in the UK don't care about anyone but themselves .
