One of the changes I would like to see is Police having the powers to act on a complaint against the SS etc, for instance if you suspect your child ahs been abused in care, you go to the police, but the complaint goes straight back to SS to be dealt with, the police are powerless to act due to the law, the police are being used by the LA to behave in ways many police officers dont agree with, yet they would loose their jobs if they did not comply. The SS constantly threaten parents with the police if they do not co-operate, as happened recently if the parent did not encourage the child who is Autistic to go alone with a stranger foster carer. This is abuse of power and they use it daily.

Six months for recording a court hearing - Norman Scarth

The link is in Russian about the imprisonment of Norman Scarth who is actually 85. He has a complex history including a court hearing which found that he used a chainsaw to fight off bailiffs when he was 75. [a court judgment which is disputed see comments] However, that does not justify imprisoning him for 6 months for recording a court hearing (see the link and ask google to translate it if your Russian is not up to it). It has got into the Argyll News Because he has been held such that people cannot get to him to sign paperwork an application for a writ of Habeas Corpus was made today. This has been adjourned until next week. The English judicial system is really not good at responding to major abuses of human rights by the judicial system.
