The all-party education select committee report on early education which was published back in January said, 'We recommend that no childminder should be allowed to smack any child in their care'. I despair of Margaret Hodge's attitude and continuing dismissal of her own MPs' advice. I hold her personally responsible for any damage that the regressive care standards cause to any child, any accident, or any damage to health that is caused through this blinkered legislation.
