Do these people not realise
that it makes no difference? Are they trying to push for some sort of change? Are there really that many Brits who feel that deeply affected by Baby P.'s death? I can understand the outrage, don't get me wrong - what I don't understand is all this other crap that seems to have gone with it. It's worse than the Maddy debacle.
I mean, I'm Austrian and we've had our fair share of mentals in the last 2-3 years (as no one ever ceases to remind me whenever I'm abroad), yet you don't see anyone singing for the poor woman who was locked in a cellar for 30 years and gave birth to god knows how many of her dad's children - of which one died. Is that any less songworthy?

Ah, but the Brits do incest better
As demonstrated by that case in Sheffield a couple of weeks ago.

Fritzl is an amateur...

Fritzl wins
The underground dungeon was far more constantly horrific than the case you stated.

Yeah -
But the Sheffield guy had that lasting element of danger. He had to stay on his toes.
Fritzl did work in the short term, but was really just after an easy life...
To Hull!

Oh I dunno
He dug an entire complex in his cellar, carrying away 18 truckloads of earth. And fitted a huge door with an electronic lock. And he was an explosives expert in the army so the police were shitscared he'd planted booby traps. And he locked his daughter away for 30 years, rather than just raping her.
