Baby P’s Third Birthday Party Mourn Porn: RSVP The Sun
HAVING made a land grab for Baby P’s final resting place by planting a plaque amid the ashes, the Sun now sends James Clench to St Pancras & Islington Cemetery.
Beneath a shot of Clench holding a big candle, before the pile of teddies and flowers, the Sun tells readers:
“New shrine on date of tragic tot’s 3rd birthday.”
Fancy a day out? It’s Baby Ps third birthday, at least it would have been had he not died. Behind Clench and his lit candle are six people – five women and a child.
“Caring parents and kids from across the UK turned up to pay their respects to the mite whose tortured death social workers failed to stop.”
It’s a birthday party. Bring the kids. Bring a gift. No need to wrap it – the paper will only come off in the rain.
Here’s Sara Dee, with her two-year-old daughter. They have travelled up from Colwyn Bay, North Wales. Young Emily is holding a “blue party balloon”.
Is she dressed a fairy? A cowboy? A mourner?
“No one in Britain must ever forget what happened to Baby P,” says mum. “It was a disgraceful episode that should never have been allowed to take place and must never be repeated.”
Agreed. It should be illegal to torture and abuse a child. Enough! It must stop now!
“Tracy Isherwood, 42, drove from Heywood, Lancashire, with her daughter Kristi Podmore, 15, and pal Charlotte Talks, 14, to lay a floral tribute shaped like a teddy bear.”
This is why teens come to London. This is the big emotional experience, the matinee show: I Was There.
Says Tracy:
“Kirsti shares her birthday with Baby P so it feels particularly poignant for us.”
As a mum. As a dad… Come if you must. It’s your choice. But the Sun sets the agenda. Baby P was the “tortured death social workers failed to stop”.
Ms Isherwood says:
“And the social workers who failed to spot what was going on should never be allowed to work with kids again.”
And the Sun’s campaign to purge Haringey social services of case workers who were involved with Baby P goes on – those workers who are now experienced in the sink of humanity and may be best placed to read the signs.
Meanwhile:
“Children’s Secretary Ed Balls is urging 30,000 former social workers to return to the profession after the Baby P case led to a staffing crisis with almost one in ten post remaining unfilled.”
But who need social workers when you have the caring Sun?
See you next year. RSVP…
