Shhhh. Don’t tell ANYONE

After having been proven to be a liar, Ed Balls has finally agreed to show the report on Baby P to 5 MP’s. Just 5. They are Michael Gove and David Laws, the Children, Schools and Families select committee chairman, Barry Sheerman, and local MPs Lynne Featherstone and David Lammy.

No one else is allowed to see it. AND those 5 MP’s are sworn to secrecy under something called “Privy Council Terms”. So they cannot reveal what is so bad, that it cannot be made public.

Lynne Featherstone is doing sterling work digging deeper and deeper. Should Old Holborn give her the memo showing that Haringey were TOLD not to take children into care because it was too expensive? Proving that Baby P died because the cost of taking a child into care had risen from £150 to over £4000 due to legislation by New Labour?

The Children, Schools and Families select committee said

“In order to ensure that future serious case reviews are not undermined and achieve their purpose, it remains vital to keep the serious case review confidential.”

I think I’ll let her carry on her sterling work for a while longer. After all, if she’s not allowed to tell us what she knows, why should I tell her what I know?

Mind you, they are getting very, very warm
