Thanks for the comment.

I didn’t comment on the piece about bloggers bad, journos good, as the way I understood it was no Press Card=No Entry? Are you saying that the current rules allow bloggers in but the new rules wont? Will be doing a separate post about some other comments when I get a chance. Will also do a piece about the Kirk Weir presentation as his findings are not news to those in the know

I look forward to getting my hands on a copy of the transcript for any of the sessions if they were recorded and transcribed. Can you signpost me on for that?

I am genuinely shocked about your comments re the supposed high regard Clayton is held in by those in attendance at the FLBA, who I would take to be mostly barristers and their judicial brothers and sisters. To see why I am shocked have a look at page 21 of the consultation responses here which noted that ‘Almost all respondents agreed with our proposals to reverse the effect of Clayton v Clayton… The exceptions were the four responses from the media, five voluntary sector organisations representing adults, and one individual judge.

Now suddenly it’s the best thing since sliced bread? I am not alone in believing that this is not about protecting the identity of children and everything to do with protecting individuals who work for organisations that are mandated to represent children but fail in their job.
