The family justice system is callous, corrupt and staggeringly expensive

The family justice system is callous, corrupt and staggeringly expensive - Telegraph

David Norgrove's interim review of the family justice system only scratches the surface of what has become a national scandal, says Christopher Booker.
A quick flip through last week’s interim review of our family justice system might suggest that all is not entirely well with our family courts. The “system is not working”. It needs “significant change”. “Children and families do not understand what is happening to them.” The time taken to resolve cases is “little more than scandalous”. “Some cases should not be in court at all.” “The costs are huge.” “These are symptoms of a situation that cannot be allowed to continue.”
