Thank you and well done. The problem is that the process is the punishment, regardless of the outcome.

Thank you once again for a “first draft of history” in your catalogue of these legal proceedings. It will take a future Dickens to chronicle adequately the capture of so many professions and public bodies.

In the meantime, the safeguarding of children and vulnerable adults has been neglected by the very bodies whose primary concern it should have been, in the pursuit of an ideology.

We'll done. Great win for Rachael Meade and for sanity. It took 11 years to reach this decision? Really? From 2013? So this sh!t was rife back then? I only became aware of it in around 2019, and my awakening was instantaneous.

No, typo sorry! She was reported in June 2020 and her ET hearing was 2023.

I think that maybe a mis-type for 2023, I may be wrong though

Ah, that would make sense. I felt quite winded when I thought it was 11 long years of hell.

Is there a way of making the deciding individuals responsible for costs or censure? I'm increasingly of the opinion that council employees and civil servants are free to interpret offence or the law as they like because when they're challenged, it's the council that will pay all legal fees and fines. I would be interested to know whether those individuals even face disciplinary action, so it's a completely no cost event for them.
