A horrendous accident in Suffolk, a car ploughs into a group of children. Thankfully none were killed, although several were injured and at the time of posting two still remain in hospital, but their injuries are not life threatening.

But what caught my eye in this report on the BBC was this.

"Counsellors were called to the scene and subsequently attended the school."

For fucks sake, were they on speed dial. Although I bet they were already on their touchy-feely way, once they'd pulled on their Orkney sweaters and Batik skirts and donned their Crocs. Did anybody ask the parents if they wanted their children 'counselled'* or would refusal be seen as akin to child abuse these days.

"We're here to help, tell me how you feel?"

* I am not saying that properly trained counsellors do not have their use. I've used one myself. and he helped me a great deal . But this really just seems nasty and part of this agenda that we 'can't handle' anything ourselves anymore but have to turn to the State to tell us how to 'feel'. ( Plus plenty of public money going to the Righteous and their friends)
