I think a lot of the nasty comments on the Kiwiblog website are set up by David. He will write about a prima facie mild topic but will be fully aware that such a topic will set off those angry posters who frequent his site. Then all David has to do is sit back and watch the carnage. It's a shame because David is quite clearly a very intelligent person. There is absolutely nothing wrong with having a right-wing blog that caters to intelligent discussions (yes, they do sometimes happen by right-wingers). It would be my (no doubt unheeded) suggestion that David does a total clear-out of his blog and start again maybe even something along the lines of this blog (subject to copyright!) albeit with his neo-liberal take on things. Ensure posters abide by the rules and get rid of the nutters. My 5 cents anyway ...

They could probably sneak in under the "education" aspect of charitable purposes. However, if they register with the Charities Commission (which they appear not to have yet done) the Commission will be keeping a very close eye on them. It is much harder to register with the Commission these days unless you have a blatantly obvious charitable purpose.

Just trying to be helpful ...

Emma, from my rudimentary knowledge of the Adoption Act and Care of Children Act I understand that you yourself could adopt and then have your partner appointed as an additional guardian.
