I WONDER how many of you have ever been bullied at work, or had your children bullied at school? Perhaps you didn’t know who to turn to, because your boss was responsible or the school seemed to be ineffective.
Until this month you could have called The National Bullying Helpline, but not any more.
Why? Because it has been bullied into oblivion.
It all started last February when the charity announced that it had received calls from staff at Downing Street.
Labour MPs were brutal in their criticism and funding was lost.
So now the charity, which used to take 30 calls a day and provided assistance to adults and children, has thrown in the towel.
The Labour Party has won and the victims of bullying have lost an advocate.
