"Truth was being sacrificed to personal expediency. Evidence would be denied if the consequences were inconvenient. Self-centred individualism and self-justification ruled, regardless of the damage done to others. Surely, though, the essence of being ‘progressive’ was to protect the most vulnerable?"
"Yet

trumped the emotional, physical and intellectual well-being of their
children — and then berated as heartless reactionaries those who
criticised them!"
