Defending Those Who Failed The Community.

Here we go.
The barracking from the cheap seats has begun.
An article in one of today's #MediaLies newspapers tries to defend social workers.
The headline "Threatening social workers with jail won't do much for recruitment" sums up the article.
The #Oxfordshire and #Rotherham scandals were briefly touched upon as was baby P's death in Haringey.
"Intervention means stress,threats even assault."
I suggest that we look at the tales of woe from people who have had experience of our social services.
Our well paid public servants who threaten and bully the very people who ask for their help.
Social workers. Police. Councils all turned a blind eye to #Abuse.
Many even profited from it.
If the threat of jail inhibits recruitment for these so called services - ho hum.
It is the people already involved in the scandals who should be jailed.
How can anyone in the 'caring' professions allow #Children to be used in such a way.
#NameAndShame and bring #CriminalCharges
