Labour Government. Ignored all warnings.
I was awake early this morning as usual. Sky News presented the story of a whistleblower who had raised concerns about Child P. The Sky News anchor seemed bemused that the government had not acted on her concerns. How many of us have sent concerns of public importance to government departments and how many of us have had the door shut in our faces? Every whistleblower apart from Steve Bolsin has had the door shut in their faces. The only reason Steve Bolsin didn't was because he had Private Eye backing him. The rest of us mere mortals have to fend for ourselves, hoping that one day our concerns will be taken seriously. A lady told me yesterday that she had written thousands of letters about the violation of human rights in the courts. No one had listened. I think this is endemic of the current government and the systems in England now. No one listens to legitimate concerns.
Prior to the closure of Ward 87, the concerns were sent to Members of the House of Lords, Frank Dobson, every MP in the Houses of Parliament and every authority. No one paid any attention. The two Labour MPs [Mark Fisher and Frank Cook] who purportedly paid some attention and told me they would refer the matter to the Health Commission. I found out two years later no referral was ever made. When Mr Fisher MP was asked about it by the Parliamentary Commissioner, he told him that all documents had been destroyed and he could not "remember". It is selective the memory loss that is astounding. Mr Cook pointed out he had more important things to deal with like national security. I then thought about Dr Mohammed Asha who is currently being tried for terrorism. He worked in Mark Fisher's MP's town. Did Mark Fisher MP do anything about it? Perhaps the efforts of both these men at national security hasn't been very effective. Anyway, more on these MPs soon. The Lying Game always demands public accountability.
The Labour Government never does anything when concerns are raised about the risk to the public or even children. They do go out of their way to undermine and discredit the whistleblower. Their MPs suggest that whistleblowers require "emotional help" when the only people who require attitudinal help is them.
The Labour government has never listened to whistleblowers. Had Child P not happened the whistleblower's concerns would never have seen the light of day
Not only did the government have access to this whistleblowing report but they had access to D Southall's predictions. In his speech to the Royal College of Paediatricians in 2004, he told us that the current system was inadequate to protect children. D Southall seems to be a lost voice as few media outlets fail to mention him. They did though vilify him for attempting to protect a child in the case of Mrs M. Is Ms M honest? That is what the papers think. The documentation show rather a different view. The social worker in that case was not believed. So you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. One thing is for certain, if Child P was taken care of by D Southall, there would never be a fatality. Social workers are never congratulated for the hard work they have done in the past to protect children. John Hemming MP has done his best to undermine child protection. The media should look at the 360 degree aspect of factors that have nationally undermined child protection. This includes the role of the media in propagating cases that have no merit. There are those wrongly accused, there are those who are rightly accused but who play the wrongly accused card. The media should take some responsibility in causing a catastrophic destruction of child protection services.
The University of East Anglia's study was a warning to the government. Another study they ignored.
Now you can watch the Labour spin machine attempting to cover up for the fact that the government fucked up, and Child P died. How many other patients, children have done needlessly?
The conclusion here is that no one listens to whistleblowers until disaster strikes.

"The woman pleaded for a public inquiry and claimed: "Child abusers are not being tackled." The council has since gagged her with an injunction. The letters were sent by Lawrence Davies, a solicitor for the former Haringey social worker Nevres Kemal, in February 2007 – six months before the 17-month-old boy known as "Baby P" died at the hands of his mother, her boyfriend and their lodger"
