Why are these London mothers on hunger strike?
A group of mothers are on a five-day hunger strike outside parliament to highlight the plight of thousands of mothers who are struggling to feed their children.
The women said they are doing so to demand all children have access to free school meals. In their published Mother's Manifesto, they highlight that many mothers are currently skipping meals to ensure their kids don't go hungry.
大象传媒 Radio London's Salma El-Wardany has been speaking to some of those involved, including Rosie Holt from Tottenham.
