UK: Absent parents who don't contribute to their children's care could have their passports confiscated and be banned from foreign travel. So-called 'deadbeat dads' face being 'banned' from taking foreign holidays

Another reason not to have children or get married. No mention that by far the majority of divorces are initiated by a wife. No mention of all the mothers who restrict fathers from having access to their children.

He said: 'Denying someone a passport means that they just can't go on holiday and we think that's the sort of power that might change people's minds about whether to fulfil their obligations.'

I was under the impression that within the EU there was free travel between the member states, and I thought that meant that a passport was not required in most cases.

Mr Malthouse contrasted the new plan with existing powers to remove non-paying parents' driving licences, introduced under a previous crackdown.

He told the BBC: 'We do already have the power to take driving licences. But unfortunately that impacts somebody's ability to work very often and of course, we'd like them to work so they can pay the maintenance.'

I wish the US would do things this way, and putting men in prison also destroys any ability to pay, but I'm pretty sure that's the idea, more workers for the prison industrial complex.

More than £2.5 billion is currently owed in unpaid child maintenance – with nearly all of the debt incurred under the discredited and now disbanded Child Support Agency.

Say what?

So how is this going to negatively affect someone who gets a job that requires travel? How many people are going to abandon ship and go to some other country to be a citizen where they are, y'know, treated like an actual citizen and not a slave?

If you ever needed a reason to have nothing to do with women, this should help.

They seems to have made these kind of laws in India since there are lot of expats from India and lot of women are crazy there.
