Why no forced adoption newspaper campaign?

I don't understand it. Booker has campaigned steadily against the heart-rending injustice of the forced adoptions system - continued today.

The Telegraph finds space on page two for the infantile "ginger rodent" story, but this huge scandal continues to be tucked away in Booker's column, this week on page 31.

Still, credit to the paper, at least they are giving him scope to run with it. I can maybe understand why The Guardian doesn't want to offend its right on clientele by campaigning for justice, but this seems a natural fit for the Mail.

Booker's conclusion is surely right. If those in the system are going to continue their cosy compliance, it will take more than one backbench MP to bust it open.

Trouble is that we have few MPs with the ability, interest, or spine to take up the cudgels!
