Social Services

I am continually concerned about the actions of our Social Services. Overall their performance has been abysmal when one considers cases that feature in the press. We have seen the performance of Haringey and the consequences of their actions but I have this real fear that the agenda of the Social Services nationally is approaching levels only tolerated by Adolf Hitler and his cohorts.

None of us wants to read about the agony of relatives fighting to retain some proportion of reason when fighting for their rights to remain in contact with grandchildren or close relatives. How Social Services can rule that same sex parents can be better guardians than the grandparents is beyond belief.

Our Social Services act with unprecedented secrecy. They are out of control. They can do anything that they want and nobody is allowed to question them. It is high time that they were held to account.
