"Family Life in Meltdown" says Judge

« A quarter of all chil… | Home | Jobs and house prices… »

A senior judge has launched an outspoken attack on the Government over the fracturing of society.

During a conference speech in Brighton, Family Division judge Mr Justice Coleridge warned the breakdown of the family would, within 20 years, "be as marked and as destructive as global warming".

He said children born into broken homes were increasingly turning to drink, drugs and crime, and the results were affecting the mental health of parents and children across the country.

It's all symptomatic of the lack of a sense of meaning in life. We must find our own meaning in life ideally - but if the government had a vision based on what is best for the folk of our nation, that would provide the masses with the meaning that once they used to take for granted.

"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
"

From William Shakespeare's "Macbeth"
