This is the most disgusting story I have ever read in my 56 years on this planet.
Can you imagine what these poor people are going through? - I can't - it's just too terrible to comprehend.
It is another demonstration of the "ducking stool" form of (non) justice that has become the "norm" in this country now. The parents in this case have done nothing wrong, the husband made a simple mistake, for which he was found not guilty and, in any case, this had nothing to do with their daughter. Despite this having been pointed out to him and him explaining that he did not know the law on tail lopping (almost as bad as the Great Train Robbery) had changed 2 days before, for reasons never explained, a riot squad descended upon him, looking for guns??? Having wrecked his house searching for these non guns, in come the Social Services (SS for short) to stab the survivors. Finding the house a disgusting mess (courtesy of Mr Plod), they decide that the parents must lose their child. Hang on - how did we get here then? No idea? - Me neither!
So, they steal the kid (this could tick a few boxes and meet a few targets) and then proceed to attach the parent to the ducking stool to prove that they are unfit parents. Lollypops become oral sex attempts and, when the parents cannot take another ducking, this is offered as proof of their guilt. Now, correct me if I'm wrong but, isn't this a little like the way we treated suspected witches in the middle ages? If they didn't die in the process of "investigation", then they must be guilty - and then we killed them anyway.
Can you imagine this happening in France? Now, I am not a fan of the French (it's an old English tradition) but, if such a thing happened over there, before the second "hearing", they would have set light to Paris and several other provincial towns, blockaded every port, closed every business in the country and, just for good measure (as it's another old tradition), set light to several English lorries.
I cannot be the only one who, when reading of such obscene actions, done by "officials" (we pay for them by the way) thinks that this country is fast becoming a place that I would not even wish to visit - let alone live in.
I think that we need, as a nation, to grow a backbone and balls and do like the French. Simply stop the country dead in its tracks until this child is returned, (with apologies and compensation) to her parents, where she belongs. We don't need an official review, an investigation or any bloody platitudes that add up to zero - we need, we demand and we bloody well will have this child returned to her parents and every other child in such circumstances returned. If this does not happen, then, as a country, we simply do not exist.
I have long said that there will be a "spark" that will ignite the country into an awakening and realisation that, not only is it wrong, it simply does not have to be this way and if this does not do it, then I despair what might.
Let's go French for a while. Stop everything until we, the citizens of this country get our priorities right - because the people we pay to do it for us sure as hell aren't.
