Nobody move or your children get hurt!

From the BBC:

Children's safety could be put at risk if the UK leaves the EU without proper plans for child protection, the UK's four children's commissioners warn.

Child abuse, exploitation, abduction and how family law matters are dealt with if a child has one parent from the EU, are all "immediate issues".

In a letter to Stephen Barclay, the minister for exiting the EU, the commissioners ask for reassurance...

The commissioners highlight their fears over co-operation on child protection and law enforcement after Brexit, saying that prevention of child abuse and exploitation often involves international collaboration.

L, throw enough mud, some will stick. Whoever invented "chlorinated chicken" or "cliff edge" got their money's worth.

Remember when the UK stole an Italian baby from a mentally ill, pregnant flight attendant?

C, no.

The collective hysteria over child abuse is verging on the obscene. It's almost as if the people secretly like it and are projecting the crime.
