I could agree with you on that.
There's also the question of who gets charity status. I mean why do private schools get charity status whilst our state schools have to pay taxes?
Mr Cameron is keen on charity, he sees charities tendering for and running and providing services, it's just another way downgrading pay terms and conditions.
But you ain't gonna build a strong economy on the back of the voluntary and charity sector.
