It’s a bit rich for the leader of NNC coming out with this clap-trap

“I’m looking forward to when we get the children of North Northamptonshire back under our control here because then we can really begin to work hard to deliver even better services.”

We know how NCC badly failed our children before the Children’s’ Trust took over and many of the councillors responsible for that are now sitting on the successor councils.

Doing the parents job for them, that is majorly naive but the usual knee jerk budget reaction to budgets. The poor agency staff who are working with the families.

Remember your Cabinet cut home start, family centres, youth services, where exactly did you think that would end up?

The decisions that are made are incredibly difficult, the courts that have to hear the evidence, the foster carers that are on stand by.

Does he think there is a queue outside Angel glass house, of parents handing over their children? Go and spend a week on the frontline before such outrageous statements are made.
