Fathers have no rights to children, children have no rights to father.

Mother can keep birth ‘a secret’

You can read the article through the link. I’ll only post certain quotes.

The three appeal judges agreed “the ultimate veto” over who is told about the birth lay with the mother.

The father has nothing to do with it. He is just a mere ‘man’ afterall.

Lady Justice Arden said the father’s rights had not been violated because he did not have any to violate.

Now it’s admitted. Fathers have no rights. Except when it comes to forcing him to pay for the child of course, whether it is his or not. Just look up paternity fraud…

Some good news on ID Cards

Well sort of. In the aftermath of the Child Benefit records debacle, MP’s (along with most of the British population) are finally getting the guts to call for ID Cards to be scrapped.

From The Telegraph.

The future of Labour’s identity card project was increasingly in doubt yesterday as MPs called for the scheme to be scrapped following the loss of the child benefit records.

Even Labour MPs were questioning how Gordon Brown could proceed with the multi-billion pound scheme.

John McDonnell, MP for Hayes and Harlington, said: “This has demonstrated that the ID card scheme is unworkable. It will be a ghastly, expensive mess. The Government must now drop the whole idea.”

Karen Buck, a Labour member of the Commons home affairs committee, called for a “pause”.

“The worst thing would be to plough on and say ‘we’re going ahead with this’ until we have had a chance for proper reflection and measure where public opinion stands when this has calmed down,” she said.

The Tory leader David Cameron told the Prime Minister that the public would find it “bizarre” if the Government was not willing now to “stop and think” about ID cards.
