Barnet's Children's Services are Inadequate - OFSTED

I'm getting to the point where very little surprises me about Barnet's services to residents. However OFSTED's judgement of Barnet's Children's Services as Inadequate has shocked me to the core.

How can a council allow its services to deteriorate to such an extent that a Commissioner has now been sent in to run the Children's services directly.

The Councillors responsible for the service need to accept responsibility and resign. There's no excuse. If you are a regular listener to full council meetings then you will know that the Conservative Councillors spend more time making childish statements about the opposition rather than being constructive.

This situation is really beyond a joke and I hope that in May 2018 we will see a change of council. That's why I intend to run as a candidate for Mill Hill along with my Liberal Democrat colleagues. We need change and we need a compentent council. Enough is enough.
