Philip Johnson had a better idea in Wednesdays Telegraph ( 8/4 ). He has cancelled his direct debit to Save The Children in response to their propaganda campaign about child poverty in UK which includes hiring a Head Of UK Campaigning to persuade HMG to spend more money on " childrens rights ".

He continues to support NSPCC which has abandoned its unsuccessful TV Campaign and gone back to helping vulnerable children.
