Vijay Patel of the NSPCC should offer a public apology and resign - people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones

Copying from Telcha Wood's facebook message:

Due to comments quoted in todays independent:

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/education/schools/is-the-government-right-to-be-concerned-about-homeschooling-1631969.html

from Mr Vijay Patel of the NSPCC, linking Victoria Climbie with home education, we are calling for a public apology and the resignation of Mr Patel.

His own organisation was heavily implicated in Victoria's death, she was not home educated, was known to be at risk.
