UK's Child Maintenance Service fails everyone – it's time for fundamental reform

The Government has finally acknowledged the need to change the 25% rule, but its proposed reduction to 15% falls short of the fundamental reform Great British PAC is demanding. The Child Maintenance Service still calculates payments using only one parent's income, even when children spend almost half the year in that parent's home. Great British PAC says the system needs rebuilding, not another patch.

The Child Maintenance Service Is Broken. Sign the Petition. Force Westminster to Fix It.

Britain’s Child Maintenance Service covers 1.1 million children, yet unpaid maintenance has reached £791.2 million, nearly half of parents on both sides call their assessments very unfair, and the standard formula ignores one parent’s entire income.

Now the Great British PAC is offering to help affected patients and staff build cases ready for funding.

Britain’s Churches Are Falling Down, and the Church of England Is Spending £100 Million Looking Back

The Church of England’s £100 million reparative programme has been sold to the public as an act of moral courage. In practice, it looks more like a failure of proportion. Britain’s historic churches are visibly deteriorating, congregations are stretched thin, and state support has been capped and closed. Yet the central Church has chosen retrospective moral expenditure over the working parish system that keeps its national mission alive.
