 Posted: 18:47 - 20 May 2009 Post subject: Government Critics to be Sent to Mental Asylums? |
 |
|
Yes yes a very dramatic headline but is it true?
| Quote: | Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) tasked to intimidate critics of Jacqui Smith?
The UKColumn was shocked to learn that a member of the public, who wrote letters and emails calling the Home Secretary a communist and criticising her for creating a police state, has been summoned for an interview with his GP. The individual, who wishes to remain anonymous, informed the Column that he was recently surprised to receive a call from his GP asking him
to attend the surgery.
Once in front of his doctor, Mr X was stunned to be told that the GP had received a letter from the highly secretive Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) following instructions from the Home Secretary herself. Although embarrassed, the GP understood from the communication that he was required to interview Mr X to establish his ‘state of mind’.
The implications of this incident are extremely serious, as they suggest that anyone who dares to criticise the Home Secretary, or perhaps even the government itself, will be regarded as mentally ill. Clearly for Mr X, Smith’s actions were intended to be a warning and the first step in attempting to brand him mentally ill |

I was interested by that article, I googled the FTAC and got an explanation from the House of Commons when it was conceived...
https://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200607/cmhansrd/cm070625/text/70625w0068.htm
| Quote: | Fixated Threat Assessment Centre
Tim Loughton: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department (1) what criteria the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre use to decide whom to investigate; [143132]
(2) how many people have been (a) detained, (b) sectioned and (c) investigated by the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre; [143141]
(3) what the (a) names and (b) job descriptions are of the employees of the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre; [143142]
(4) who authorised the establishment of the Fixated Threat Assessment Centre. [143033]
Mr. McNulty [holding answer s 15 June 2007]: The Fixated Threat Assessment Centre (FTAC) was established in order to better protect the public and vulnerable individuals in response to evidence that a significant proportion of people who engage in bizarre communications or contact with prominent people in public life are severely and acutely mentally ill and urgently need professional help. A small but significant number of such individuals can pose a risk to the public, the prominent person, and themselves, particularly in environments where there are armed police officers. The Home Office, the Department of Health and the Metropolitan Police Service agreed to establish a joint police/mental health unit, on a pilot basis, to assess and manage the risk posed by such individuals. Where appropriate, FTAC will introduce (or reintroduce) the individuals into existing community mental health care through established pathways. If offences are disclosed, and the circumstances warrant such intervention, consideration will also be given to a criminal investigation.
Since its creation in October 2006, FTAC has dealt with 168 cases. FTAC does not detain people in psychiatric hospitals. When it encounters an individual in need of mental health care it alerts their general practitioners and psychiatrists, who then provide appropriate help under existing legislation. FTAC may make use of police powers under section 136 of the Mental Health Act 1983 to take a person who appears to be suffering from mental disorder, and in immediate need of care or control, to a place of safety. When people are removed to hospital under section 136, they are examined by a registered medical practitioner and interviewed by an approved social worker, not associated with FTAC, in order to make any necessary arrangements for their treatment or care. To date, FTAC personnel have used this power on nine occasions

Does every article they write have at least one instance of the words 'George' and 'Orwell'? ____________________ Space Monkey #7

Try it yourself - there is a search function on Infowars.com - enter 'George Orwell' and see how many results are returned.
After scrolling through 500+, i got bored and gave up.

There was a terrible case in the Newcastle area whereby a patient known to mental health services murdered a young female support worker.
A few months before he was arrested outside Buckingham Palace as he was going to kill the Queen.
There are some people who need to be protected / protected against. Have you ever heard of MAPPA?
