A quarter of adults to face 'anti-paedophile' tests
A quarter of the adult population faces an "anti-paedophile" test in an escalation of child protection policies, according to a report.
"The launch of a new Government agency will see 11.3million people vetted for any criminal past before they are approved to have contact with children aged under 16.
But the increase in child protection measures is so great it is "poisoning" relationships between the generations, according to respected sociologist Professor Frank Furedi.
In a report for think tank Civitas, he said the use of criminal records bureau checks to ensure the safety of children and vulnerable adults has created an atmosphere of suspicion".
Firstly, I am suspicious of calls for the safety of children when the authorities are content to let the McCanns evade responsibility for child neglect and evade bringing them to jutice.
Secondly, I refer to Civitas as Silly Ass for obvious reasons...
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
