We do not even know his name, apparently for legal reasons, but we all share the horror at hearing how baby P died.
He had 8 broken ribs, a broken spine, was missing fingernails and a fingertip and had bruises all over his body.
I pray for him.
However we have to ask why this happened?
The government has ordered a review of child protection. This, whilst well meaning is ridiculous. The faults are clear, that the existing rules were not followed and people did not do their jobs.
No amount of procedure can compensate for not following procedure.
What is needed is not so much a general review but a close review of who did what and did it meat the procedure.
The other issue of course is Haringay council. They seem to have cropped up too often here. Is there a systematic problem.
The BBC have this.
