Now, we all know that a major cause of the riots is the fatherless society the judiciary have decided to produce. In 1989, the legal presumption in law that a father is the natural guardian of his children was abolished. Mothers never did have such status in law. Since 1989, any child in the UK, whether born here or visiting, even on holiday, is, in legal terms, technically an orphan. Our children are up for grabs, or for sale, by the industries of the social services and legal profession. In private law, fathers and other natural connections such as grandparents are inconveniences to the legal and social pimps who Lord it over our children, and both fathers and mothers are defecated upon in public law. Having children in the UK can be bad news, as they are effectively owned by the socio-legal professions who will, if given the opportunity, ruin the lives of your entire family to meet financial targets.
Despite clear Parliamentary Guidance Notes, and Hansard, sole residence is preferred by judges to shared residence because the latter cuts out the possibility of financial gain for themselves, their crony legal colleagues and untrained social workers. Shared residence orders generally finish litigation. That means no more income from frivolous injunction hearings, excessive multiple contact hearings, CAFCASS assessments, committal hearings, etc etc etc etc.........The lack of legal natural guardianship in the UK is an utterly perverse social construct slipped in under the 1989 Act which apparently entitles the government to total control over our children whilst, when running alongside contempt of court laws, effectively stifling all response from parents.
www.sharedparentingresearch.info has, so far, 31 research papers depicting sole residence arrangements as 'dangerous', 'likely to result in the loss of any paternal contact', 'producing psychopaths', 'causing male suicides', 'pathological'.......
Shared Residence, on the whole, produces well developed and emotionally stable children and young adults. It's not rocket science that a policy of dispensing with natural guardianship as a principal in law will have repercussions further down the line. Especially in a state that expressly fails to bridge the chasm caused by removing natural guardianship and a judiciary that refuses to properly uphold the intent of the law and prefers to ignore the will of the people.
Judges are supposed to be 'independent' and 'act in the interests of children.' In order for untrained judges to know what is in the interests of children they need to regularly digest research. They don't. The Ministry of Justice has said "if judges want to use research, that is a matter for them". It shouldn't be.
At David Cameron's 5 hours or so Question Time after the riots, only one MP bothered to mention the link between the riots and the breakup of families. Although the MP concerned should be congratulated for venturing where the rest didn't bother to, he's wrong. It's the sole residence arrangements after the family split that ruin kids and produce young adults (some as young as 9) who lurk waiting for a big enough excuse to go smashing up property and nicking from shops.
David Cameron, partly voted in on his promise to reform the family law system and get fathers back into the lives of their children, now prefers to invent ignorant soundbites against us. Fathers and the media have responded vociferously. We are not allowing the effects of a judicial policy he allows to continue to be blamed on us, the very people the policy disenfranchises. In the last few days, Cameron has criticized the Police; they have bitten back too. They are not going to allow the PM to denigrate them for their response to a situation made not by them (although their actions in Tottenham were catalytic), but again, brewed over several years and generations by unchecked socio-legal policy.
A collapse in traditional fatherhood is driving children as young as 10 into gang culture, Iain Duncan Smith has claimed.
The work and pensions secretary said gang leaders offered young people from dysfunctional families a "peverse sense of purpose", structure and belonging.
He said there was a "growing gangs problem", with around 6% of 10-19 year olds – 450,000 – reporting to belong to a gang.

Action should be taken to tackle Britain's "social breakdown" to prevent future generations drifting into gang culture.
"We have a growing gangs problem. There are between 100 and 200 gangs in London alone," Duncan Smith said
"They are getting younger and younger. It is down to about 10 years old in some cases.
"Social breakdown means there are fathers completely missing. Constructive fatherhood has gone in many of these communities.

"Often for these boys, a gang does provide a kind of structure, it gives a sense of belonging, it gives a perverse sense of purpose. And criminal activity sometimes gives them an income too."
In an interview with the Daily Mail, Duncan Smith said the government planned to use US-style "shock therapy" to try to reverse the trend.

A scheme to be unveiled by the Home Office and the Department for Work and Pensions this month will include "call-ins" for gang members who have not yet committed any crime.
They would be taken into a courtroom where a judge would warn them about potential penalties, and families of victims of gang-related violence describe their suffering.
"In an area dominated by gangs it's almost impossible to improve people's quality of life," he told the newspaper

"Mothers are struggling with poor education, very few skills, have had children early, often in their teens. If they are in relationships, they're often violent, abusive ones.
"That's the picture we see in these areas – a value set that has completely collapsed."
