British baby siezed in Ireland after parents flee social workers over custody row

By Andrew Alderson

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.
