Essentially, parents have been barred from public playgrounds in parks. Instead, they are forced to wait outside the railings whilst council-employed "play facilitators" assist the children.
The council claim it is due to Ofsted regulations, although Ofsted have stated "only people working with children needed to be checked, not all adults on the premises. It added: 'We would never seek to prevent parents and carers having access to their own children.'"
The most pernicious quote is from the Mayor of Watford, the LibDem Dorothy Thornhill:'Sadly, in today's climate, you can't have adults walking around unchecked in a children's playground.'
Seriously, Thornhill, what the fucking fuck are you on about?
You can't have adults walking around unchecked in a playground?
Why is that?
You can't have adults walking around unchecked in a public space that they pay for out of their taxes? Or you can't have adults walking around unchecked in a playground because most or all of them are child molestors?
Neither one really makes any fucking sense to me.
What is "today's climate" on planet SocDem anyway? Because the rest of us, well, we live here on planet Earth.
You complete fucking moronic spaztard.

Indeedy. As I said at mine:
"I have spent my fair share of time in playgrounds with my kids, and never worried particularly that they'd be assaulted/kidnapped by paedo's, because I was there keeping my eagle eye on them.
I did however often worry that somebody in 'authority' would question the reason for my presence and/or take me off for fingerprinting.
That's how f***ing stupid things have got."
"only people working with children needed to be checked, not all adults on the premises"
OK Ms Thornhill - DEFINE WORKING. If you merely want to play with your own kids you are NOT working, so why don't you go and shove your ludicrous interpretation of "the rules" up your arse - sideways.
Couldn't agree more. Fucking imbeciles.
Charlotte Gore - Lib Dem totty.
Sounds remarkably like this, from Bedfordshire in July, on the auspicious occasion of parents being banned from sports day.
"All unsupervised adults must be kept away from children"
Not fascism at all. Honest.
