All these enquiries and 'sackings' yet the baby is still dead.
Horses and doors spring to mind.
can we not just fire the lot and have done with this?

Oh dear, one down six to go.
Well it's becoming increasingly clear that the Government are doing their level bests to distance themselves from their own culpability in these matters.
A disturbing fact was told me yesterday by my tame solicitor who does a lot of Family cases so is well experienced in these matters.
In the past it cost the local council £150 to bring a case before a judge requesting that an at risk child be taken into social services' protection.
It appears that the Government in their infinite wisdom have raised this £150 fee to... wait for it... yes, it went up to £5,000 in one fell swoop.
So the question to now ask oneself is how likely is it for cash starved councils to bring to the courts borderline cases?
Why am I not surprised to see no-one from the Government being sacked over this sad affair?
