    Children who go to a loving household are going to be better off that staying with the single mum bumming off benefits.

    If people can not handle their own contraception, then the state should step in.

    Workhouses? What, like work to get benefits? What is wrong with that? These people failed to get work themselves. As they wish to be supported they should "pay" for this service.

    Police intimidation was never mentioned. But no one's ever accused you of rationality...

    Police in theory should not be frightening. They are if you are a benefit cheat, are a squatter or are otherwise breaking the law. That is not the fault of the police, but the individual breaking the law.

    Poice in theory should not be threatening. They are if you are breaking the law and they are warning you that next time you will be arrested.

    You speak from a position of never having had to face any hardship other than tugging your telegraph out of the letter box when it gets jammed.

    The idea that it would be better for a child to be taken from it's natural parent and given to some strangers because the mother can't afford to work would be laughable if you weren't serious.

    But then what can we expect from someone from a priverlidged background working in a profession which exposes and promotes a patrician uncle-knows-best attitude.
