Marking The Bicentenary Of The Abolition Of The Transatlantic Slave Trade
There is some limited awareness of the significance of 2007 in relation to the abolition of the Transatlantic Slave Trade Act, and one in ten can name the exact year when the act was abolished. However, few people are able to identify prominent abolitionists from a list, indicating that although there is a basis upon which to build awareness for next year's bicentenary, there is some way to go to raise awareness and knowledge in this area. Results also reveal the public's limited understanding of what slavery in the 21st century involves. Even the most widely recognised form of modern slavery, trafficking for sexual exploitation, is identified by only 35% of people.

Public Attitudes To Parenting
The public believe that better parenting is key to reducing crime and anti-social behaviour in Britain according to a new poll by the Ipsos Social Research Institute. A failure to bring up children properly is felt the main cause of anti-social behaviour today and the public are keen for steps to be taken. The large majority believe that parents should be held responsible for the bad behaviour of their children and be made to take help if their child is involved in anti-social behaviour. Two-thirds of parents say they would personally find help from outside their friends and family useful in dealing with difficult or troublesome behaviour of their children.
