I'm really not sure it's that simple. Someone who used to work at Kids Company said on R5 Live today that she is 'a south London Sepp Blatter'.
Personally I am always very wary of charities or organisations run by 'charismatic' individuals without whom there would be no organisation. From a governance point of view, there be dragons.
Not disagreeing with your sentiment on the Tory approach to child poverty though, or charities for that matter. They are currently busy applying political pressure to the Charities Commission to prevent any form of campaigning.
Using a liquid manure based metaphor, it's fine for charities to clean up the mess politicians make, but how very dare they even think about turning off the shit tap at source.
