Times launches campaign on Family Justice

On Monday the Times will launch a campaign on Family Justice at http://www.timesonline.co.uk/familyjustice

They say:
I wanted to let you know that in Monday's Times, Camilla Cavendish will be starting a major campaign under the banner of Family Justice.

The Times is calling for family courts to be more open, and for childcare professionals to be accountable for their decisions.

The conclusion of her first article is: "To sever a child from its family without due cause is licensed state oppression of the worst kind. It is, in fact, child abuse."

We're supporting the campaign online
a) Running a survey to find people who have been involved with family courts and looking for clusters of concern.
b) Encouraging readers to write letters to their MPs using an online form.
c) Collecting useful links for parents and grandparents

I'd be grateful if you could link to the campaign homepage, and encourage your readers / members to get involved:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/familyjustice (It should be fully live by midnight Sunday)

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.
