“Adoption services in England are “a crisis facing the country”, according to a leading adoption lawyer.
Nigel Priestley, a senior partner at Ridley and Hall in Huddersfield, blamed government cutbacks and reorganisation, and claimed that more must be done to recruit and support adopters.”
Of course he will say that.
as Adoptions go down it means less money for Family Lawyers and all those with their fingers in the Pie.
its not Rocket Science!

As reported previously last October by Researching Reforn and other sites !
Barnsley Chronicle 12/10/2018 Judge Moore compared Social Services to the Nazi “SS” !
A JUDGE likened Barnsley social services to the Nazi Party’s SS after a young girl who had expressed suicidal thoughts was subjected to a naked medical examination without her father’s consent.
“Social services were like the SS of Nazi Germany,” Judge Moore said. “They’re literally the SS in their name and their manner of working is somewhat draconian.
I think for once that there is here one of those very rare examples where a family judge actually “got it right !”
Well done judge Moore !!
