[Date & reference] 1997-01-31 This Is Lancashire MPs are part of the problem
SIR: I feel that if MPs are not part of the CSA solution then they are part of the CSA problem. Politicians cannot abdicate their collective responsibility for the deaths and mayhem caused by the Child Support Act to the families of this country. As long as the politicians remain silent we can only assume their support for this evil legislation. Clearly they approve of the human misery, the intrusions into decent people's family lives and the well documented waste of public resources. They are supposed to represent the interests of the citizens who elected them and those who cannot recognise the human and legislative disaster which is the CSA, are no longer fit to hold office. No government is entitled to do to its people what ours has done. This daylight robbery must be rubbed into the politicians' faces. They must never be allowed to forget the devastation they've caused the men, women and children of this country. Contempt for the people is the ultimate crime of government and, right now, hundreds of MPs stand guilty."
