    He was just letting people know about the help they can get if they earn under a certain amount and talking about the vouchers

    It always surprises me how new parents seldom know about Childcare Vouchers. I think it is shocking that HR Depts don't inform pregnant mums about it when they go on Maternity leave.

    just had the daily e mail fromt he GMTV website with Martins interview in full...he didnt mention childminders but if you read the transcript below it does mention them...although it doesnt go into detail about vouchers....so it looks like GMTV have listened to me this morning and added that bit in...so some kind of result????
