The ironic thing is, Alfie’s care would cost the NHS nothing further if he’s goes to Italy, it is covered by fundraising and the Vatican hospital - but it’s their fear of losing face and that other families would request the same.

Spot on..it is all about State Power. They have assumed the right of life and death from the parents, but never told anyone they were doing it and now we see just how cruel they are and how unfit they are.

They can’t give a decent reason, because they don’t have one.

If they didn’t have a bent court and activist judge, Alfie would be in Italy...it is an outrage.

Evil cretins indeed. And it is all politics. They can’t be seen as having an infallible DHS, so Alfie must die.

More likely burying the kitchen cutlery in case the police raid the house.

“In Liverpool, local residents have been gathering outside Alder Hey to demonstrate, in a spontaneous swell of support for Alfie’s parents. Some members of the European Parliament have denounced the U.K. authorities in the strongest terms. Pope Francis, with whom Tom Evans met in Rome last week, has appealed publicly and repeatedly to the U.K. government to let Alfie’s parents “seek new forms of treatment” for him in Italy.”

Just get him across the Channel in a small vessel, and from there on a plane to Rome. Ask the government to change its mind? What? Is it the judges’ child? Is it the Prime Minister’s? Who needs their permission? What a load of nonsense it all is! Just go!

why would their courts imprison people in their country? sounds rather East Berlinish.

This anti-Christian attitude predates the influence of Izlam on British society.
