Can the Big Society work without Big Charities onside? – Telegraph Blogs: "Voluntarism is fundamentally a conservative, or at least anti-statist idea. And so are the other two aspects of the idea that the PM keeps referring to – the devolution of power to the local level, and the opening up of state monopolies to competition from companies and charities.
But can this Big Idea get a fair hearing if the bosses of top charities attack it? Right now popular and well known charities, hooked on the crack cocaine of government handouts, are wailing like mad as their grants are reduced, and they are turning their ire on the Big Society."
