Great reading tonight!!

I like that - 'VOD'.
Yep, all who brush up against docs go on in life to become VOD's.

Incidentally, you are so correct jaremt about guessing there being no compensation from the government re: docs way of dealing with and your family.
As a VOD I asked a docs worker after the court cases finsihed up, after my son was dumped back into my care etc. asked can docs now refer me for PTSD sytle counselling now that they have crucified me and tortured my son? The response was "we would have to have you assessed by OUR psychiatrist and then we would have to extend our order whilst all this goes on...". Bullshit to that response I thought.

And the police - one mighty big boy's club.
Ever heard of the C.A.R.E. factor?
It's an acronym for - cover arse remain employed.

Yes, I have read your stuff on Altnew Deborah. Another VOD story.

Good on Ihategov for keeping this forum focussed.

I was going to post something about a topic surrounding the word hegemony and how it applies to docs. Another time.

Bravo to you all for the constant exposure and debate around this much hated and distrusted government department.
