As for CiN, since 1980 its garnered about 1.5 billion. That's an average of about 37 million per year. With about 12 million children in the UK, that'd give them about three million to feed each child. But of course, as a charity they have to pay their admin staff! And the money doesn't just go to fedi g children, one charity it supports is one that campaigns against mothers being imprisoned. The money also gets squandered on crap like helping a girl sue her school because she didn't want to wear the uniform.
To expect a charity to pick up the slack of a neglectful government isn't the way to go.

They're not picking up any stick, there are Children in need, there is a charity that helps children in need, use it.
