Thanks Sian and well done again on your investigation.

Huge congrats to the inimitable @hansummers.bsky.social and @louisetickle.bsky.social for winning - and I was stoked to get a special mention for my “totally gripping” investigation into Enough - the tech start up targeting rape victims at university

Thanks Lucy!

Thank you, Alice!

A spokesperson for the Ministry of Justice said: “We share the concerns about these unregulated ‘parental alienation’ experts and we are working with the family procedure rule committee to prevent them from giving evidence in the family courts.”

The calls for her cases to be reviewed came after details of a landmark ruling were published last week. A high court judge overturned the evidence of Gill in one case where a mother had her family 'torn apart' following the psychologist's advice to a judge.

Gill did not respond to @tbij.bsky.social's request for a comment, but has previously said she is the victim of a “witch hunt” and is being targeted by feminist campaigners who have a “biased view” about domestic abuse.

She said: “It is a national scandal that unregulated ‘experts’ have been given so much unchecked power, endangering survivors and their children and inflicting irreversible damage...it's on a par with the Post Office scandal and we must seek truth, justice and protection."

Claire Waxman has this weekend written to the government and the President of the Family division calling for an urgent review of all Gill's cases - as well as those of any other unregulated psychologists - where their evidence led to the removal of children.

She said: 'I’ve seen cases where unregulated ‘parental alienation’ experts have torn children from their parents who were victims of abuse, and even led to children being handed back to the person who harmed them, because those experts dismissed disclosure of abuse as lies.”

Gill was paid £10K for her report. She has previously said she has given evidence in up to 200 cases. And we have verified that at least a dozen children have been removed following her advice. She did not respond to our invitation to comment on the details in the article.
