Suffer little children

K&C, despite its wealth, is refusing to end the practice of burying children in "paupers' graves".


Despite its wealth, it has buried 16 children in this manner in the last three years and remains the most significant of the London boroughs to refuse to endorse a Standard campaign to end the practice. Smart old Wandsworth (leader Eddie Lister) instantly signed up to earlier this year.

For K&C to do the same would only cost it £7,000. That's hardly a massive sum - especially for a borough able to run a chauffeur-driven Jaguar and Bentley for the benefit of its mayor - and on occasions Mr Cockell.

If every single councillor gave up jsut one month of their basic allowance, it would be more than six times the sum needed.

So what are they waiting for?
