Petition to Stop the
systematic removal of children by UK Social Services. NOTE: The site petitionthem.com is temporarily unavailable. Please excuse the inconvenience. This page is under review and may be reactivated at a later date. ... View signatures (Nearly 2000 people have already signed!) Approximately 1 in 20 children have been taken into care, some adopted, at some point in their lives. Nearly 60,000 children are taken into care each year. That's the entire population of 100 primary schools. Each case costs the taxpayer an average of £70K in legal fees, many cost over £350K. There are other costs, costs that needlessly drain the resources of local authorities, central government and charities. Private children's homes charge up to '£7000 per week per child' and foster parents in Slough for example get '£400 per week per child' Children in care cost the taxpayer over £830 million pounds a year. That's an average of £2,500 per child, per week-more than four times what it would cost to send a child to Eton. Channel 4 Profiting From Kids In Care DESIRED OUTCOME...
