Do You Hate Children!!!
- Title
- Do You Hate Children!!!
- Description
- In the 1960s and 1970s, the provision of low‑cost healthy meals and milk for British schoolchildren became politically charged following government cuts to education and welfare budgets. Do You Hate Children!!! is a single‑sheet typescript flyer that staunchly attacked the Conservative government’s plans to raise the price of school meals and abolish free school milk, highlighting the impact these measures would have on the health and education of working‑class children. The flyer was likely produced for the trade unions’ day of protest on 8 December 1970. The following day, protestors gathered in Downing Street to oppose the cuts proposed by the Education Secretary, Margaret Thatcher.
