Mental Capacity Act allows draconian and secretive decisions

This is the usual smoke and mirrors government response. It does nothing to help, or give rights to the mentally disabled – other than move them from private NHS provision under the MHA, where they have been kept illegally for years, into institutions worse than Winterbourne, under the much more draconian Mental Capacity Act.
Google ‘finolamoss blog’ for the law on MCA, and what is happening for profit, to my 18-year-old autistic daughter. This MCA, with the rubber stamping Court of Protection, deems illegally, all autistic, mentally disordered, disadvantaged,' incapable', at 18, and, the LA then make all their decisions for them.
These incapables are then forcefully removed from their family and placed in independent living units forever, against family decisions, and their best interests. They are force fed risperidone/drugs illegally, to make their care more profitable, and with pharma kick backs, £4,000 per week can be claimed for their care.
Private investment will just now be moved out of the NHS provision to the independent living provision.
Yet in independent living, worse abuse will occur as the units are smaller and there is no accountability and all is in secret and it is for life under the MCA, with no reviews.
