As Abraham Lincoln so aptly said "You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time"

As Mrs Wharsme Dissusedcurtains has just found out.

She's up to something. My mother said some years ago that she was up to no good. I've always respected my mothers opinions of people.

Your mother may have been right

The cash has rolled in to Kids Company. It has received more than £25 million from the government, and another £4.25 million has just been agreed. Prince Charles is a fan; the rock group Coldplay have donated £8 million. Then there’s Richard Branson, J.K. Rowling, Jemima Khan, Credit Suisse, Morgan Stanley, John Lewis and more.

Good for Camila Batmanghelidjh, you might say, but there are a number who believe that Kids Company has perhaps grown too quickly and would, despite its undoubted achievements, benefit from a review of its operations and controls. They worry that Kids Company has become too famous, untouchable, and now acts as a drain on well-meaning donations that might otherwise go to better causes. Having investigated the charity for several months, I’m afraid I agree.
