Excellent article imo. Getting the message out to a huge readership.

Thanks for the link. A thoughtful article.

Do we have any sense of the readership figures for similar pieces in the Daily Mail?

I agree that this is presenting the message in a way that people who aren't already versed in the issues will understand. I hope that people will engage with the consultation or at least contact their MPs about this.

There were hundreds of comments under some of the Harrop articles.

don't know about similar stories in the Mail, however it is by far the most read online newspaper site in the UK

Sadly, it has slipped down the page and in size so lost prominence

That's a very good, well reasoned article. Thank you Debbie.

BoreOfWhabylon · 04/12/2021 14:49

Yes. Thank you @DebbieInBirmingham

Such a sensible, compassionate, and as PPs have said, thoughtful article. Should be shouted from the rooftops.

Not many comments, but the ones there are all positive and there are thousands of upvotes agreeing with statements like “great article”…”good to this subject being sensibly debated”…etc.

Thank you for sharing this piece.

And to everyone, please do have your say on the Government Consultation. Whatever you might think about me (and I know feelings here are mixed), I worry that children are being harmed.
