You can tell there hasn't been much family law news around recently, as many family law writers have turned their hand to commenting upon the riots. These include Lucy Reed at Pink Tape, Penny Booth and Kate Gomery at Family Law, 'familylawyer' at Confessions of a Family Lawyer, Dianne Benussi and even Judith Middleton (who usually keeps things a little more light-hearted). Follow the links to see what they have to say.
I, on the other hand, will NOT be posting anything here mentioning the riots...

Good for you. Who cares about biggest civil uprising this country has seen in over 30 years anyway?

I am waiting for someone to petition for transportation to Austrailia.

ReplyDeleteBlame the run-away fathers who fail to control their youngsters
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to control your kids when you are unable to see them without being arrested. That needs to change.
ReplyDeleteDavid, you crack me up twisting the subject of every post to your own agenda.
ReplyDeleteAgendas are like A holes John, we all have one.
ReplyDeletePerhaps, but not all of us like to show them off in public, at every opportunity.
ReplyDeleteSome of us have more reason to then others.
ReplyDeleteAnd some of us get very bored by hearing the same thing ad infinitum.
ReplyDeletePlease keep comments on topic, otherwise they will not be published.

ReplyDeletecan i nominate this to somebody for the 'best comeback of the year' award?

ReplyDeleteI did see a couple of parents of rioters spoken to by the media- they were fathers.
ReplyDeleteHaving blamed just about everyhting and anyone for the riots, Cameron has now turned his attention to the Human Rights Act. No doubt, those involved in the riots and looting had the provisions of that legislation in mind as they went on the rampage....
Anyway, here is the link for another legal blog with an excellent commentary on Cameron's latest outburst of embarrassing drivel.
