Judges and Social Workers are routinely complicit in child abuse. Let us consider all of the kinds of difficult private law cases involving children-related issues in the family courts. The courts have used the following phrases. These phrases have been used haphazardly and non-uniformly. I would like to reduce all this equivocation into a codified […]

Abolish Wishes and Feelings Reports!
This is an argument advocating the abolition of Wishes and Feelings reports

A useful recent case on parental alienation from Lord McFarlane, President of the Family Division
Another Tearful and Wholly-Deserving Father – The Case of ‘A’
Introduction Today I am looking at yet another parental alienation case that’s gone badly wrong.

The Life of a Family Court Judge
Are our judges simply BORED?
The Winds of Change?
Are we getting somewhere? Are the times a changin’? I was much-chuffed to read the judgement in Re L 2019. My feeling is that we are starting to see some judicial enlightenment on this subject. In this case, the mother was found not to have alienated the child from the father. Nevertheless, the child was […]
Making PA a Crime
You will see elsewhere that I advocate making PA a criminal offence, as well as a distinct tort. Well, I have found a lawyer that ‘gets it’ – and these are rare. The lawyer is June Venters QC, and her article is here. I have to say that it is refreshing to find a lawyer […]
