Having been on the receiving end of several of your limp-wristed insults I wonder how you have the nerve to write this rubbish (without blushing).

You really are a sad excuse for somebody who gives the impression of knowing it all, but who actually (in reality) knows very…

The same goes for UKIP. I find their xenophobia indefensible, but that in itself doesn’t disqualify members from being foster-parents. It depends on the individuals.

You can join the UKIP for any number of reasons. One is that you’re a racist, or alternatively an old-fashioned jingo – immigration is the key.…

. . . . As Panda argued, they could have taken the kids just for the money. Perhaps, though they seem to be very good at their job. . . .

Just how good a job did they do? Full credit to all parents, foster, step, biological or whatever for surviving, let alone doing a good job.

That they kept the kids unharmed and well is…[Read more]

Lord Terry asked the question a few pages ago:

What if the parents were members of the Labour Party or the Conservative Party?

What if the parents were members of the BNP Party?

I didn’t mention the BNP, but there again you do tend to mix fact with fiction, don’t you?

You even managed to call me a racist on these…

I dunno, the subject of sex comes up and the only person Terry thinks of is me.

I’m flattered and terrified all at once.

The assertions in the article are contradicted by the queues of older women on flights to tourist destinations all over the world where they rekindle their acquaintances with their holiday or internet romances; the resulting marriages, some successful, some not and the women who date or marry ‘unsuitable’ men of all ages.

We still don’t quite know if the complaint was restricted to support for UKIP, or whether it included more harmful allegations.

Yes we do. The only ‘crime’ committed by the foster parents was that they are members of UKIP. If you bothered to read the thread, the news and the links provided you might actually have…

Sure the children’s welfare should come first, but current emphasis on budgets and media attention turn that sentiment into a slogan in some circumstances.

Terry is right, it is desirable to take random strings of words out of context when trying to find a meaningful quotation.

Trouble is, when Labour politicians make…[Read more]

These foster carers haven’t suddenly become different people overnight… the people they are today are the people they were yesterday or the day before when the children were placed with them.

Child protection is a nightmare. The fundamental problem is the one that caused the children to end up in care in the first place. Even if one disagrees with the council’s decision, they are not the bad guys, they are trying to make the best of a bad situation in a climate of decreasing resources, prurient media and increasing litigation.

Already the picture widens and deepens.

According to the interview in Terry’s link, the children were in an emergency placement, so the children would have been removed from the couple sooner rather than later anyway.
Long term placement might well have involved splitting up the children. It is common for children to form very strong links with…[Read more]

Terry is right, anyone who makes a professional decision he doesn’t like or for reasons he doesn’t like should go. Simple as.

If he doesn’t like the decision it’s pointless waiting for the results of any inquiry which might reveal the bigger story he acknowledges might exist. Simple as.
