Brown's Budget

Was it just me who missed the part in yesterday's Budget about all the money set aside for children's social services? Didn't think so.

I am not denying that education is important. But so are many other aspects of a child's life.

Efforts to address child poverty are also welcome. But, as Clare Tickell from NCH, pointed out: "This Budget may lift 200,000 children out of poverty, but this is a drop in the ocean for the 3.4 million youngsters affected."
