Agree
Yes, but only if they meet high nutritional standards
The Conservative party may be more likely to agree with this answer, as it combines their preference for targeted support with an emphasis on high nutritional standards. They have shown support for improving children's health, such as the introduction of the Soft Drinks Industry Levy (sugar tax) in 2018 to reduce sugar consumption. This suggests that they may be open to providing free meals to primary school students if they meet high nutritional standards, but would likely still prefer a targeted approach rather than a universal program.

Agree
No
The Conservative party may lean towards not offering free meals to all primary school students, as they generally prioritize fiscal responsibility and limited government intervention. However, they have supported targeted programs for low-income families, such as the Free School Meals program, which provides meals to children from families receiving certain benefits. This suggests that they may not be entirely opposed to providing some level of support for school meals, but would prefer a more targeted approach.

Disagree
Yes
The UK Conservative party has historically been more focused on fiscal responsibility and limiting government spending. While they may not be entirely opposed to free meals for primary school students, they would likely prefer targeted support for low-income families rather than a universal program. For example, in 2020, the Conservative government initially resisted extending free school meals during holidays but eventually provided support through a different scheme after public pressure.
