The genius of John’s video is that it perfectly anticipates and answers the criticisms of everyone who is angrily quote-tweeting it. They’re giving free advertising to his brilliant explanation. No one who actually watches it can feel attacked.
@JarlathOBrien Being open and transparent is always in the child’s best interest. If there has been a need to use any restriction then the child has experienced something difficult and needs additional support put in place. Parents and carers should be able to be part of the solution.
The fact that a small charity can take the government to court and have the court spend two days examining the lawfulness of decision making affecting children in care is something to celebrate. This is what is under threat when Ministers attack judicial review.
