Our social care system for children is in crisis. Today I asked the Prime Minister about his government’s plans to tackle this national scandal, whereby private operators are making fortunes on the backs of vulnerable children and desperate local auhtorities.

Here is my piece for Labour List about my Private Members Bill which offers modest reform in this area. Helpfully the government minister has already been in touch to organise a meeting about this issue.
