Interesting that the social workers involved, who created this mess, are
now being protected:

"BBC lawyer David Attfield told Today that the injunction had prevented the
naming of social workers to avoid identification by association of the
families." 

Seems to me that the people who caused the problem should be required to
take some heat for their actions.  Too often the busybodies and beaurocrats
who create problems for others just walk away unscathed.  Perhaps if they
knew there'd be some consequences because of their actions, they'd be a
little more cautious.
