UK children 'trapped in a materialistic culture'
Children in the UK feel "trapped in a materialistic culture" and want more time with their families, according to a new Unicef report. UNICEF UK’s Executive Director David Bull said "the Government needs to show strong leadership by taking decisive action to help families fight back against the materialism and inequality that is so pervasive in the UK.

In response, Children's Minister Sarah Teather said the Government shared "UNICEF's concerns about the rise of consumerism among children". She said they were working to implement recommendations from the Bailey review on commercialisation and sexualisation of children.
