We invented this arrangement some time ago. You hired people to govern for you while you got on with other things. However much money they needed, they discussed it with you, you agreed on a fee and it was administered. That was how it worked.
We still do that, officially, but we also raise cash ourselves for certain things that we hired those people to deal with on our behalf and with our money.
It's almost as if we don't understand how our own system is supposed to work. |

Red Nose Day/Comic Relief only gave Lenny Henry more spotlight..let's fund more guns and ciggies.
CIN has not been in any local papers in the past, I have only read about said CIN fundraisers in group photos.
There was a 'special school' in Folkestone that needed more cash to stay open they pleaded with CIN and got nothing. |

There has also been concern about the type of groups receiving funding from Children in Need.
Writing in The Spectator, Ross Clark noted how funding goes towards controversial groups such as Women in Prison, which campaigns against jailing female criminals.
Another charity highlighted was the Children's Legal Centre, which provided funding for Shabina Begum to sue her school as she wanted to wear the jilbāb.
Clark pondered whether donors seeing cancer victims on screen would appreciate "that a slice of their donation would be going into the pockets of Cherie Blair to help a teenage girl sue her school over her refusal to wear a school uniform |
