Petition Increase the resources allocated to child protection. No more Ayeeshia's!
The case of Ayeeshia Smith is far from isolated. 1 child PER WEEK is murdered by their parent(s) in the UK. That simply has to stop. I'm calling on the Government to substantially increase the resources allocated to child social care and child protection, to try to make sure it never happens again
More details
Ayeeshia Smith. Baby Peter.
High profile names, for all the wrong reasons
But apparently, in the UK, one child per week is murdered by his or her parents. Think about that: ONE CHILD PER WEEK KILLED BY THEIR PARENT(s). Source:http://straightstatistics.fullfact.org/article/how-many-children-are-murdered-britain-every-year
In a supposedly civilised society, this simply cannot go on. The government need to do whatever it takes - spend whatever is required - to make sure this never happens again
