This is a good thing:

I have posted on here in the past. Long story short; my wife and I - who had never been in any kind of trouble before and weren't known to Social Services - were treated atrociously when we were incorrectly accused of harming our then 14-month old son back in 2018.

The Local Authority/Social Services told lie after lie about us and you would not believe the amount of errors that were made by the so-called medical experts, Social Services and the Police.

When it ended and my wife and I were cleared we were informed by our solicitors that we were not to go to the press or name names of those who had got things so terribly wrong. We were, effectively, gagged from telling the truth.

Before it happened I naively thought things like 'this' didn't happen in this country, how wrong I was. Social Services/Children's Services have an awful reputation for a reason.
