While UK Authorities will visit the MEPs in Europe House, we are creating a parallel event in the Theatro Technis in Camden, near King’s Cross, on The UK and EU Dimensions of ‘Forced Adoptions‘.

In this report, for the members of the Council of Europe, i.e. MPs of 47 member states, Duma member Olga Borzova, ‘forced adoptions‘, against the will of biological parents, calls the following practices ‘abusive’ in the concluding paragraph:

1. unwarranted complete severing of family ties – in the UK, enshrined in ‘law’ – e.g. deporting these Nigerian parents and this US mother or intimidating this Russian mother with 9 police with a medical kit!
2. frequent recourse to removing children from parental care at birth – in the case of Nigerian Gloria Musa in prison!
3. basing placement decisions on the effluxion of time – “makes a mockery” of both children’s and parents’ rights, the author writes!
