PROTEST FATHERS STILL HAVE LOTTO TO LEARN
Equal Parenting Council agrees wholeheartedly with Eamonn Holmes's views about the destructive comeback stunt by F4J that disrupted the National Lottery - read Eamonn's column at:

It's a great pity that F4J have raised their ugly heads again. Eamonn is right – their Cause is a just one; but they don’t go about their campaign in a way that engenders publicly sympathy – quite the reverse!
They do a great disservice to the legions of decent parents who have lost their children simply because our system of family justice does not work. Why? Because these protesters make people believe through their loutish conduct that courts are excluding parents for good reasons!
In terms of doing something positive, we urge YOU to make sure their MP supports Early Day Motion 128, which now has substantial support in Parliament. It calls for a change in the law that will install a legal presumption that all decent parents should be entitled, after separation, to spend a reasonable amount of PARENTING TIME (so called "contact") with their children.

Please check that your MP has signed it. If they've not, please get on to them immediately, if not sooner!!!
