And it wasn't just Rochdale, by the way, it was Nottingham, Orkney, and other places too. Have they learned from this? Have they apologise? No, they went on to do it elsewhere and have since invented MSbP so they can carry on tormenting children and families.
I am sure there are good, dedicated social workers who want to protect children but there is something desperately wrong with the profession as a whole that these people can still be working, haven't been brought to account, and that the profession has gone on to embrace MSbP with such enthusiasm and gone on to do it all over again.
I spoke to the former president of the General Medical Council about this. He told me whenever MSbP is raised, doctors and social workers get into this hysterical witch-hunt mode, and absolutely refuse to look at the evidence or lack of evidence rationally. Even he wasn't believed when he tried to point out that the allegations against one of his patients were absurd - he was just told he was 'part of the problem' because he wouldn't fall into line. Anyone who dares to stand up to them is threatened until they daren't speak out.
