In a Galaxy long away is a planet called BASW – it seems to contain folk who are hopeful, bright, dedicated and deserving of status. That excludes the ruling class who, some of whom are simple piss heads and live in an alternative world. Among them is an “acting” leader trying as best as she can to recover a utter disaster in the public image of social work. Regrettably, she faces such an uphill task that she has resorted to “off world” concepts that the survival of the universe relies upon BASW – we might all get consumed by Darth Vader unless BASW are given a voice.

Quite frankly, if there was ever a time for BASW to give in, it is now. Stop digging a hole even bigger than Dawson has already dug and just, well, stick your heads in a meat grinder – the likely outcome from your brain might just be as comprehensively stupid.

The GSCC are becoming newsworthy again. First this report indicates, as Wilt predicted the GSCC will at best have its wings clipped and at worst may be subsumed altogether into some other quango. See the article her: http://www.communitycare.co.uk/Articles/2010/03/30/114185/gscc-functions-could-shift-under-white-paper-proposals.htm

They have hardly won their wings to expand in light of the total fuck ups made in the past. Wilt is still convinced the nice people at the GSCC will find themselves listed as a former regulator, a bit like the NCSC (National Care Standards Commission) and CSCI (Commission for Social Care Inspection).

Second, the GSCC have concluded on this case, and in one sense rather controversial given the passage of time. They have been very brave. See the article here:  http://www.communitycare.co.uk/Articles/2010/03/30/114184/GSCC-strikes-off-worker-for-sexual-abuse.htm

Meanwhile the GSCC has had a busy month: http://www.gscc.org.uk/Conduct/Conduct_hearings/recently_concluded_hearings/

Some very interesting readings among these numerous concluded GSCC hearings, and for the first time (I think) a hearing held outside of London. That means those nice people at the GSCC got off their fat bums and went out to the provinces – no, we do not still paint our bodies red and run around nude! So you see GSCC, you are safe beyond the M25.

On the whole, I must say, the GSCC seem to be getting their act together – nothing immediately springs to mind in their findings that causes concern, but given their history, you just never know for sure. It is, however, a little come lately as the GSCC have the immaculate propensity to stupidity.

However, nothing will prompt Wilt to register with the fools, any more than re-join BASW – Gawd forbid!

Oh dear, more MP files sent to the CPS, as outlined here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8595256.stm

What a wonderful story – little piggy’s are increasingly feeling the pinch. Excellent stuff – let them squeal all the way to market, or otherwise known as a general election.

Meanwhile Guido (http://order-order.com/) has identified this rather useful addition to your bathroom: http://order-order.com/2010/03/30/wipe-the-smile-of-their-face/

Wilt has ordered a batch via here: http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/12654173/Gordon-Brown-Printed-Novelty-Toilet-Roll/Product.html

A real bargain at £3.49 a role I think if it means using Gordon to wipe my arse.
