All eyes glued to the TV on Monday night for Channel 4′s much hyped episode of Dispatches “Undercover social worker”.

The publicity tells us this will be a “disturbing investigation” which uncovers “a lack of resources, inadequate staff support and training, high workloads, poor morale and overwhelming amounts of red tape and “box-ticking”.

Well we could have told them that!

Still we mustn’t complain when these issues are finally acknowledged in the mainstream press. Let’s hope it actually makes an impact.
