Andrew Flanagan, who was appointed chief executive of the charity in January, said public perceptions of poor quality residential and foster care may be to blame and the issue needed to be addressed.Asked whether too many children at risk of harm were being left with their families, Mr Flanagan said: "If a child dies, we have to say, 'Yes, they are'. The cut-off point is wrong. "
He added: "There is a long-standing view that publicly-provided care is not as good as care in the home. There is a presupposition that leaving a child in the home must be better. We need to open up that debate.
"Why is care not a good option? If it isn't, that is the thing that needs to be addressed."
Come on, you fucking fuck knuckle: are you seriously suggesting that on average, or indeed, in all but the most egregious cases, a care home is not a worse option than being raised by your parents? There isn't a fucking debate to be had here, you clueless fucking moron.

They say that they are moving from lobbying to provision as if they are being noble.
Pah!
Two reasons-
1. Their excessive lobbying has been rumbled and they are running scared.
2. The argument is won, so now they are gearing up to suck big time on the State "third sector provision" teat.
Sounds to me like local authorities need some expert consultancy to improve their standards of care. For the sake of the children, naturally.
I wonder who could provide that?
"everyone's favourit FAKEcharity", surely?
The usual bollocks: "open up the debate" etc., meaning we'll do our best to turn fucking common fucking sense on its head". Local authority care (and what a fucking greay oxymoron that is) has been responsible for more crime and depravity than any other factor over the last forty years. It's the last place any kid should end up.
