Relocation and Leave to Remove: A Report by The Custody Minefield Foreword by Sir Bob Geldof. Formal Release Date 7 December 2009
Bob Geldof responds to Child Welfare Report
Relocation and Leave to Remove: A Report by The Custody Minefield
Foreword by Sir Bob Geldof. Formal Release Date 7 December 2009
I can hardly read the literature on Family Law without simultaneous feelings of an awful sadness and profound rage. Sadness at what has been done to our children and their families and deep rage for our Family Courts and the inadequate practitioners that work within it.
In the near future the Family Law under which we endure will be seen as barbaric, criminally damaging, abusive, neglectful, harmful to society, the family, the parents and the children in whose name it purports to act. It is beyond scrutiny or criticism and like a secret society its members – the judges, lawyers, social and child “care” agencies behave like any closed vested interest and protect each others’ backs.
The court is entirely informed by outdated social engineering models and contemporary attitudes rather than fact, precedent rather than common sense and modish unproven nostrums rather than present day realities. It is a disgraceful mess. A farrago of cod professionalism and faux concern largely predicated on nonsensical social guff, mumbo-jumbo and psycho-babble. Dangling at the other end of this are the lives of thousands of British children and their families.
Here is one more report that empirically nails the obvious fact that to remove a child from their father (in the hugely vast majority of cases), their grandparents and other family, their school and friends, is wholly destructive to a child and its family.
How much longer must we put up with the state sanctioned kidnap of our most vulnerable? Because in effect that’s what “Leave to Remove” amounts to. How much longer do we tolerate the vested interest intransigence of the appalling U.K. Family Justice system? How long before just one of them admit they have got it ALL wrong and apologise to their myriad victims?
This report is important, timely and vital. To accept its findings, which could have and should have, been conducted at any time in the past 30 years, is to accept the awful conclusion that rather than Solomon like resolving our tragically human disputes with understanding, compassion and logical pragmatism the courts have consistently acted against society’s interest through the application of prejudice, gender bias and awful impartial cruelty.
This report proves it. May God forgive them. I won’t.
Bob Geldof (December 2009)

traditional notion of a Northern Ireland family
57 % OF BELFAST CHILDREN BORN OUT OF MARRIAGE
The traditional notion of a Northern Ireland family has been turned on its head by new Government figures revealing that almost 40% of children born here are outside of marriage — and divorce rates are the second highest on record.
Statistics released from the Department of Finance and Personnel showed that in Northern Ireland last year the number of births increased by 5% to 25,631. Overall, 39% of these births occurred outside marriage. This varied from area to area, with the highest levels in Belfast (57%) and Derry (50%).

Germany legalise pedophilia
German Government Publication Promotes Incestuous Pedophilia as Healthy Sex Ed Micheal O'Brien, author on crisis of culture in West, says this "German state intervention in family life is a new level of auto-destruction"
By John-Henry Westen
BERLIN, July 30, 2007(LifeSiteNews.com) - Booklets from a subsidiary of the German government's Ministry for Family Affairs encourage parents to sexually massage their children as young as 1 to 3 years of age. Two 40-page booklets entitled "Love, Body and Playing Doctor" by the German Federal Health Education Center (Bundeszentrale für gesundheitliche Aufklärung - BZgA) are aimed at parents - the first addressing children from 1-3 and the other children from 4-6 years of age.
"Fathers do not devote enough attention to the clitoris and vagina of their daughters. Their caresses too seldom pertain to these regions, while this is the only way the girls can develop a sense of pride in their sex," reads the booklet regarding 1-3 year olds. The authors rationalize, "The child touches all parts of their father's body, sometimes arousing him. The father should do the same."
Canadian author and public speaker Michael O'Brien who has written and spoken extensively about the crisis of culture in the West spoke to LifeSiteNews.com about the shocking and extremely disturbing phenomenon. It is, he said, "State-encouraged incest, which in most civilized societies is a crime." The development is, he suggests, a natural outcome of the rejection of the Judeo-Christian moral order.
"The imposed social revolution that has swept the western world is moving to a new stage as it works out the logical consequences of its view of man's value," said O'Brien. "It is merely obeying its strictly materialist philosophy of man. If man is no more than a creature created for pleasure or power. If he is no more than a cell in the social organism, then no moral standards, no psychological truths, no spiritual truths can refute the 'will to power' and the 'will to pleasure'."
The pamphlet advises parents to permit young children "unlimited masturbation" except where physical injury becomes apparent. It advises: "Children should learn that there is no such thing as shameful parts of the body. The body is a home, which you should be proud of." For ages 4-6, the booklet recommends teaching children the movements of copulation.
Another product of the BZgA is a song book aimed at children of four and slightly older which includes several songs espousing masturbation. The song-book entitled "Nose, belly and bum" includes one song with the following lyrics: "When I touch my body, I discover what I have. I have a vagina, because I am a girl. Vagina is not only for peeing. When I touch it, I feel a pleasant tingle."
"The wiser and deeper position of most civilizations recognized that children need a period of innocence," commented O'Brien. "Now the state, the German state, is encouraging destruction of this state of innocence," he added. "This is consistent with the materialist philosophy that sees all moral norms and all truths about human nature as repressive. Pleasure and their distorted concept of freedom are their only guiding principles."
According to the Polish daily newspaper Rzeczpospolita, the BZgA booklet is an obligatory read in nine German regions. It is used for training nursery, kindergarten and elementary school teachers. Ironically it is recommended by many organizations officially fighting pedophilia, such as the German Kunderschutzbund. BZgA sends out millions of copies of the booklet every year.
"A society such as Germany's which is already in steep decline, indeed into degeneration, will only inherit the whirlwind of violence and further levels of degradation of their own people," warned O'Brien.
"It has happened before in Germany. It has happened in other nations. Different causes but the same dynamic, the rejection of the moral order of the created universe results in radical evil. The German state intervention in family life is a new level of auto-destruction," said O'Brien.
Rzeczpospolita reports that the Eckhardt Scheffer of BZgA claimed that before releasing the manual the organization consulted parents, educators and child psychologists. 93% of whom gave a positive evaluation.
Even for a Western nation, Germany's billboards and television ads push the limits of public pornography. Last year LifeSiteNews.com reported that a very popular teen magazine in Germany publishes nude photos of teens in sexual positions which would be in almost any other nation illegal child pornography.
With a licentiousness as the new morality of the secular materialist establishment and homeschool a forbidden practice, parents in Germany may well wonder what will transpire in public education.
"Will those children who are not liberated by their parents have special classes in their schools where they're introduced to these practices," asked O'Brien rhetorically. "If the state intervenes in this way, what won't it intervene in?"

RFFJ Belfast Family Courts
RFFJ stage a small protest outside the family law courts in Belfast today.
This protest is to show the government that we will not be swayed by their tactics to silence our group and the issues of children and fathers.
We spoke to several barristers and members of the public and started a petition to hand to the N.Ireland Assembly calling for a review into family law.
This petition was also signed by some of the barristers that we spoke to; it shows that even within the legal industry that there is a need for change with family law in this country so that a child can finally have a right in law to see its parents as equals.
A further press release concerning the protest will be posted on this blog and sent to the mailing list.
Emotional test trauma
The current new entry exams are deemed by politicians to be causing children stress, the 11 plus itself was abolished due to the emotional nautre of the exams.
Parental seperation and parental alienation have still not received the required attention it deserves in terms of the emotional trauma.
The educational education in N.Ireland was exceptional, the dumbing down of education can be best highlighted by former vice president Stephen Agnew
"education is being redefined at the demand of the undeucated to suit the ideas of the uneducated"

Adoption Outcry , Contact Silence
It is national adoption week in Northern Ireland, nearly 4000 children a year need to find new parents, this nationally covered social problem is highlighted quite clearly while at the same time the same amount of children each year in Northern Ireland loss contact with their father and extended family through the family law system, that is in place.
The silent plight of children involved in contact cases needs fully addressed in Northern Ireland in the same capacity that adoption needs to be highlighted. Thousands of children are suffering the social, economic and health implication of losing their father based on the very fact that a child has no right in law to see its father.
RFFJ finds it hard to comprehend that such a public outcry is made in terms of adoption while at the same time no outcry is made for contact cases where children and fathers are placed on a judicial timetable for when they are allowed to see one another.
Children In N.Ireland, poverty is twice as bad a mainland UK
In a past media release RFFJ N.I commented on the state of the country in terms of raising a child, given that the UK is low ranking regarding UNICEF, RFFJ stated previously that when N.Ireland is devolved from mainland UK that N.Ireland will be bottom of the table regarding a society in which to raise a child. Once again RFFJ N.I has been proved correct in our objective measurement of society in Northern Ireland.
An area that has been highlighted as a factor is childcare; there are thousands of children in N.Ireland who through the actions of their mothers or by judicial order cannot have contact with their father or extended family. When it comes to child care then half of that child’s extended family who could share in childcare is erased from the scene
CIVITAS in 2002 already highlighted the social effects of fatherless homes as a major factor in social poverty and as of yet no action has been taken to reverse the social, economic and health effects of fatherless homes.

When rape is not rape
Man raped in Belfast city centre
A 21-year-old man has been raped in Belfast city centre.
The attack happened in the Library Street area some time between 0300 and 0400 GMT on Monday but details have only just been released.
A police spokesman said the victim was "extremely shocked" by the ordeal and was speaking to specially trained officers.
Detectives want to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time and who may have information about the assault.
and other grim news from the BBC...
A 16-year-old child rapist allowed to walk free by a judge, only to abuse a five-year-old boy just days later, is detained
A teenager who kidnapped and raped a five-year-old boy, eight days after avoiding custody for another rape, has been detained for at least three years.
The 16-year-old admitted offences against the second boy including rape and child abduction.
Manchester's Minshull Street Crown Court heard the attack happened after he was given a community order for the rape of seven-year-old boy in Tameside.
The first sentence, by Judge Adrian Smith, provoked a legal challenge.
On Wednesday, the attacker, who cannot be named, was given an indeterminate sentence for protection of the public after committing a second attack.
He must serve a minimum of three years minus five days before being considered for parole.
But Judge Peter Lakin told him: "The offences you have committed are deeply disturbing and very serious.
Det Con Terry Farrell read out a statement from the victim's father
"You are a devious and manipulative young man with an unhealthy and completely unacceptable sexual interest in young boys.
"It is likely you will not be released for some very considerable period of time."
He added that it was "highly unusual" for a court to categorise a 16-year-old as a danger to the public but in this case it was merited.
"I have to say I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in reaching the conclusion that you are indeed a dangerous offender," the judge said.
The boy was sentenced to three years and four months, but will be eligible for parole earlier because of time spent in custody.
Judge Lakin also revoked the community rehabilitation order passed by Judge Adrian Smith and resentenced him for the earlier rape offences against the seven-year-old.
He was sentenced to three years and four months, to run concurrently, and placed on the Sex Offenders Register.
In sentencing for the first rape, Judge Smith is believed to have considered the victim's family, who forgave the youth because of their Christian beliefs.
The three-year community order led to an appeal by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), but was overtaken when, just days after appearing in court, he was arrested for the second rape.
Rape is rape and whether you are 16 or 60, it is one of the most horrific crimes anyone can commit
Det Con Terry Farrell
On 4 July 2009, the second victim, who is now six, was playing outside near his home when he was lured away to look for a lost football but was actually taken to the teenager's house and abused.
He was found emerging from the house while his parents searched the neighbourhood for him.
The teenager later admitted child abduction, rape, committing an offence with the intention of committing a sexual offence, attempted rape and causing a child to engage in sexual activity.
Speaking after the hearing, Det Con Terry Farrell, who led the investigation, said it was a "harrowing and disturbing" case.
"Rape is rape and whether you are 16 or 60, it is one of the most horrific crimes anyone can commit. For this to happen to a five-year-old boy is beyond comprehension."
He then went on to read a statement on behalf of the father of the victim.
He said: "This has been a traumatic ordeal for my whole family, and particularly for my six-year-old son who has had to go through what no-one, let alone a young innocent boy, should ever have to go through.
"It has been a harrowing time but I'm glad it is finally over and we can now draw a line under everything and move on with our lives."

Baby RB losses its silent life
Mother's view more important than father's in deciding if child should live or die
A mother's views outweigh the opinions of a father's when it comes to deciding whether a child with a rare disorder should be allowed to live or die, a senior children's doctor has said.
A Childs Right to Know Its Father
The government backtracks on ensuring that a child’s biological father is named on a child’s birth certificate, due to this event allowed to occur unchecked it is also the starting point for future court cases regarding the child.
The government must decide, is it in a child’s best interest for a child to know its father?
Or
Is it in a child’s best interest for its mum to be able to remove its father?

Focus on child abuse
Outside of the social engineering of society through the family law courts, other practices by the governemtn are also violating our human right to family life.
The drive to abolish childhood continues apace. The government is ordering “sex education” to be imposed on primary school children from as young as five. The premature sexualisation of children and the encouragement of prurient interest in sexual matters at a tender age has already provoked increasing numbers of underage pregnancies (which the hypocrites enforcing this degenerate agenda claim it is designed to reduce), but still the fanatics persist in destroying what little remains of childhood innocence in this decadent age.

The emerging fact of female perpetrators in all child abuse is only highlighting a practice that has gone unheard and unpunished for years.
The social taboo of females as abusers is finally being questioned and it is being questioned from the view of a child’s best interest. For too long the interest of a child came secondary to the interests of the female population.

This event is a event in where fathers groups are not the target audience, given that the degeneration of children in the UK is so bad that the UK is bottom of the pile it would only be comendable that all groups should be invoted to attend such a event.

Baby P the aftermath
Have social serviced learned their lesson, this is the only reasonable outcome from Baby P’s death, it is sickening that his is the second high profile death that was used to bring change to a social welfare system that does not work..
A child dies at a rate of 1 or two a week due to the failures of social services, baby P’s case while horrifying is by no means a one off in the UK or the developed world.
Family court decisions to go online in pilot scheme
Decisions made by family courts over care proceedings and disputes over domestic arrangements are to be published online in a new pilot scheme.
The move is part of a drive by the Ministry of Justice to open the family courts to wider public scrutiny.
Under the pilot scheme, which started yesterday, decisions of magistrates courts in Leeds and of magistrates and county courts in Cardiff will be anonymised then published online on the website of Bailii, the British and Irish Legal Information Institute.
The scheme will extend in January to cover courts in Wolverhampton.
A Justice Ministry spokesman said: "The pilots are part of a drive to help the public and the media find out how family courts work and how decisions are reached.
"The online judgments will be anonymous to protect the identities of the families involved, and the families themselves will receive a copy of the judgment.
"During the pilots, we will consider retaining copies of judgments for children involved in the case to read when they are older.
"This information will be invaluable for people involved in family proceedings and the general public, and help them understand how decisions are reached in complex and sometimes traumatic cases."
Justice Minister Bridget Prentice said: "Family courts are faced with some of the most difficult decisions to be made in the justice system, and the decisions that they make need to be transparent so that the public who use the courts have confidence in them.
"The courts already provide an excellent service and I believe that allowing the public to access a written copy of a judgment in a family case will help them understand how a decision was reached.
"It is important that people understand and feel connected to the justice system and this pilot will assess whether online judgments are a good way of achieving this aim.
"We will continue to protect and safeguard the identities of children and families by anonymising these written judgments."
The pilot scheme, which is expected to run for a year, will be evaluated before a decision is made on whether it should be rolled out nationwide.
The move follows changes which came into effect in April opening the family courts to a right of media attendance, although the strict reporting restrictions remain in place.
The Ministry of Justice said a Bill being put forward by the Department for Children, Schools and Families would put a new statutory framework in place to enable the media to report the substance of family proceedings but without identifying the families and children involved.
Judgments to be published on the Bailii website under the pilot scheme will be uploaded only after they have been approved in anonymous form by the courts which make them.
Cases to be covered will include interim or final care or supervision orders made in magistrates' courts, county courts or the High Court, when at least one of the following issues is also involved:
* Either parent is given leave permanently to remove a child from the UK
* The final order prohibits direct contact between a child and either or both parents
* A final order is made in a Children Act public law case, including where contact with one or both parents continues
* The final order has depended on contested issues of religion, culture or ethnicity
* The court has had to decide between medical or other expert witnesses when there were significant differences of opinion
* The court has had to decide significant human rights issues
* The Interim Care/Supervision Order was contested
Other types of cases for which publication of a judgment will be encouraged include:
* Contested cases where the facts, outcomes or solutions of the case would, in the discretion of the judge, be worthy of reporting publicly, such as contested residence or disputed contact issues where the outcome is unusual
* Contested adoption applications, applications to make and revoke placement orders; cases involving dispensation with consent and contact
* Emergency Protection Orders

Bill Of Rights N.Ireland
http://www.borini.info/index.aspx
RFFJ N.Ireland will be considering the Bill of Rights in terms of a child's and fathers right to family life and if needed the right to a fair trial in family courts.
This opportunity to give fathers and children a voice in law will have huge implications domestically if we succeeded to have the right to family life fully recognised domestically.
