I'm sorry, but your children are not your own private property

Article Abstract:

Many people in the UK have deluded themselves into believing that divorce does not really have a negative impact on children. However, accumulated research indicates that this is not the case. It is widely believed that parents know what is best for their children, thus making it possible for children to be neglected or even abused without any repercussions. It is now time for children to be seen as a social concern, with ordinary people taking direct action if they feel that a child is not being cared for properly.

Upstairs, downstairs (or how I learned that snobbery and deference are alive and well in Tony Blair's Britain)

Article Abstract:

There have been a number of examples recently of how a very small number of wealthy people in the UK continue to exert a great deal of influence over how land is used. Heiress Mrs Charlotte Townshend, who owns Ilchester Estates, has decided not to permit English Heritage to have Chesil Beach on the south coast designated the 200th National Nature Reserve, apparently out of a desire to protect fox-hunting in the area. In a similar development, an ancient meadow at Dorney, near Windsor, England, has been dug up in order to create a rowing lake for pupils from Eton College.
