After spending eight years on the international stage, the Prime Minister appears only now to be attempting to put Britain’s house in order. In January, Mr. Blair unveiled his proposals for creating respect in our society.
How is this to be done? By encouraging the general public to ‘have a go’ and put pressure on the police to curb the behaviour of feral children and their parents.
But it is his own ministers, under the thrall of powerful lobby groups, who continue to give confidence and boldness for delinquents to believe that the consequences of their wicked behaviour should be paid for by their victims and the state, while, at the same time, undermining both the power and the authority of teachers and parents.
