On last night's Panorama about Karen Matthews he said at the end of the programme (paraphrasing) 'People like this should not be pitied, they should be judged'.
I believe he meant people like Karen Matthews in general, the hoards of scum underclass we have in this country (chavalanche?), and not her specifically.
Hurrah, common sense at last.
Yay or nay?

That would mean an increase in Council Tax to pay wages of the inspectors,and to train them to spot signs of child neglect or abuse.
The Councils have more than enough inspectors already so it wouldn't cost them anymore. It would just mean a reallocation of their work patterns.
As regards training them to spot signs of child neglect or abuse. One doesn't need training to spot when a child is at risk or being neglected, just by looking into it's living conditions and accommodation.

AOG. Can you imagine councils actually using their existing staff to do this. In my experience, they just would create more jobs! Have you seen the job titles of council workers these days. I envisage 'Assistant to the assistant of the to the Deputy Senior Officer of Maintaining checks to children in social housing" Salary �35,000, two year contract.......................... And they would need about 2 years training!
