Well said TTT, this poor child WAS being seen by social services and it appears they failed.

I read this story last night and it was sickening.
I’m waiting for the usual “lessons will be learned” b0110cks they usually come out with.
If these neglectful agencies haven’t learned lessons by now, they never will.
Without question the scum chav adults were responsible for this child’s death, but the social services absolutely bear some responsibility for his death.
I sincerely hope the social services people who saw this child are struggling to sleep at night with the guilt.

//Because the Welfare State, much hated by the Tory Party, has been under-funded for so many years as a result that it is no longer able to cope with its workload.//
Really?:-
"Social services were aware of Hakeem before his death different agencies discussed his case just days before his death."
There are too many "agencies" holding "case conferences" and "discussions" over tea and bikkies. Each of them is more concerned with protecting their backs rather than the children brought to their attention. Like the NHS, social services is not a shambles because of lack of funds. It is a shambles because it is badly managed by inept people earning far too much money.
"A Child Safeguarding Practice Review into their contact with the youngster and his mother is set to be published within weeks."
And a lot of good that will do the hapless Hakeem. More tea and bikkies, reports published (when everybody has forgotten all about the tragedy), "lessons will be learned". How many lessons need to be learned to find out that you do not leave a small child with a drug addled mother?

My wife worked as Deputy Head in an inner-city school with huge social problems being highlighted on a daily basis.
Times without number she implored Social Services to take vulnerable children into care away parents who were neglectful and / or abusive.
The response mantra was constant and un-ending - Social Services always err on the side of 'keeping families together' even in instances where children were clearly undergoing harm and in imminent danger of serious injury or death.
Even though, as in this case, organisations do act to safeguard children, the processes are so woefully unwieldy and slow, that by the time any action is taken, it's too late.

Children used to be taken away from the parents on the first report as TTT suggests, however of those children taken away the majority shouldn’t have and the SS got in trouble for it and now because of that they have to have case conferences with schools and police and GPS.
It delays things unfortunately.
Children don’t fare well in the system in some some cases they are abused sexually mentally and verbally.
Perhaps something needs to be put in place when these vulnerable children are born?
