Alcohol causing brain damage - why was this not dealt with?

A child was born severely brain-damaged  because the mother was neckin a bottle of vodka a day - why was this allowed? Where was her social worker? Where was the doctor? I had 2 glasses of wine on my birthday when I was pregnant and I never forgave myself - also smoked two fags a day - doctors said 'it could be more harmful to stop smoking than to carry on' was worried about withdrawals and distressing a baby already being 'attacked' by violent, unwanted sex - horrible - but poor little mites - what inhabits the minds of these nutters to think it's OK to torture an innocent like this?  Why why why...


The independent wrote

'However, two leading women’s charities have warned that it could set a legal precedent to prosecute women who drink while pregnant.
Lawyers acting for the council seek to prove that the child’s birth mother’s excessive drinking was a violent crime that should be recognised under the Government’s Criminal Injuries Compensation scheme, which awards compensation to people hurt by a violent crime'- meanwhile...................

Message from our Knight - The Noble Norman (had a bit of bother with bullies)

OK, Chief Superintendent Callaghan: You win!  CONGRATULATIONS!
With your gobble-de-gook weasel words, your convoluted Pass the Parcel 'Procedures', tacit collusion from your cronies in the 'Independent'(???) Police Complaints Commission, the Information(???) Commissioner's Office, the 1st & 2nd Tier Tribunals & the rest of the Legal/Judicial Mafia, you have managed to bring to a halt an 89 year old veteran of the Arctic Convoys of World War II.  
How it grieves me to think that during that time, I played my (very small) part in killing 1,867 men, the crew of the German battle-cruiser Scharnhorst.   They were brave men, a MILLION times better than Quislings like you.  
So, you've blocked  my progress in exposing your corruption.  Yes, but only along THIS avenue. 
Despite the vast forces which have been trying to silence me these last 18 years or so, I'm not done with yet!
Norman Scarth.
