No Santa Claus This Year
"No Santa Claus This Year" is a song I have written, in response to the proposed cuts in child benefit payments, and is performed by "The Party Poopers"
If the cuts happen, then the song will have been validated. If they do not, then perhaps it will have been somewhat of a deterrent. One way or the other, the happiness of children at Christmas is of paramount importance. In the end it will triumph, for Santa Claus has always been known to go to any lengths to work wonders for children.
As it says in the song, Santa will after all come this Christmas. It is simply not in his heart, to refuse to honour where possible, a single letter from any child. I decided to put "No Santa Claus This Year" on the internet as a free download, with an option if people so wish, to make a donation to the Tommy Simon Care Fund.
This is a fund that has been set up by our wonderful friends and neighbours, to provide for the ongoing needs of our 3 year old son Tommy. He is a palliative-care-child who has severe neurological and cardiac problems, requiring round-the-clock care in our home.
Perhaps "No Santa Claus This Year" might prick the conscience of those who would wield the axe in the direction of some of the most vulnerable in society......the children.
