Leaders vow to fight lone parent myths
Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Tory leader David Cameron and Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg have all signed a pledge to debunk commonly held misconceptions about single parents.
Charity Gingerbread has secured the support of all three party leaders to expose and challenge false stereotypes about single parents - who are sometimes labelled as "benefit scroungers" or "bad mothers", according to a recent survey.
