Poor kids on TV.

I've got some catching up to do as I was away for a nice week with the family in Suffolk. Hence no postings for a while. I'll put that right this week.

Had such a nice time whilst away, so reading this article in the Guardian on Saturday was even harder than it would've been otherwise.

I find it hard to deal with this stuff at the best of times but I'll try and watch the TV programme tomorrow (the 7th) on BBC1 at 10:35.

New report on child poverty.

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) have released a new report called 'Doing better for families'. The report looks at the percentage of children living in poverty across a whole range of countries. You can click here to see the summary of the report. I'll be buying the full report in an electronic form in the near future.

The report was debated on Radio 4 this morning (28th April) so you can hear it for the next 7 days as 'listen again' by clicking here.
