Gary Lineker has applauded Marcus Rashford for his open letter to the Government but says: "A young footballer shouldn't have to be imploring them to do this".
Rashford on Monday morning pleaded with MPs to reconsider their decision not to extend the current food voucher scheme in an open letter "written from the heart".
The 22-year-old Manchester United and England striker urged the authorities to make a U-turn and allow vulnerable children who have been getting free meals during the coronavirus lockdown to continue receiving them in the summer holidays.
And Lineker was among the familiar faces to praise Rashford's role in putting pressure on Boris Johnson and Co, though he feels it shouldn't have come to this.
