British baby siezed in Ireland after parents flee social workers over custody row
On the advice of an MP, the heavily-pregnant woman and her partner gathered belongings into their car and left the UK for Ireland last week after British social workers told them their child would be taken into care within hours of birth.
However, within 24 hours of the birth of their daughter on Thursday, weighing 7 lbs 10 ozs at Wexford General Hospital, the baby was instead seized by Irish social workers in the town. Tomorrow her parents must begin what is likely to be a lengthy legal battle in Ireland for their right to bring up the child. It is understood that social workers may seek to have her adopted.

Its awful, when you have to tell Parents to skip the Country,
There is no Justice, within the UK Family Courts.
Due to the new Legal Aid payments to Barristers decreasing, this will force them out of Public Law work, leaving many Parents having to represent themselves, such individuals will not have the knowledge,and means, to fight their case.
