A protester is for life

Those wacky campaigners at Fathers 4 Justice are at it again. Dressed as "Captain Conception" and "Cash Gordon" Mark Harris and Jolly Stanesby have climbed onto the roof of Deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman's house and unfurled a banner reading: "A father is for life, not just conception". They have said that they will remain at the property until Miss Harman has read Mr Harris's book, Family Court Hell. Apparently, the founder of Fathers 4 Justice, Matt O'Connor, has threatened that: "This is the beginning of a series of protests leading up to Fathers' Day". Oh goody, I can't wait.

  1. As a family lawyer I am increasingly encountering the other end of the spectrum, that being mothers and children wishing for more contact with the fathers. ( I also include myself in this)

    So much for the 'rights of the child' to have contact

  2. Yes, I have come across that too. I have posted about this issue before.
