    General Election

    There is no doubt that TM is using the rhetoric of the centre ground. The words are those of Blue Labour and a few of the policies are straight out of Brown's and MIliband's manifestos. However, I don't think that is really why she will win big. She will win big because of Brexit, pure and...

    Meanwhile the police did next to nothing and the social workers seemed to think it was a "lifestyle choice" of the girls!

    Three girls

    Yes indeed. I guess the girls called it right. The police would not protect them 24/7. The gang would get to them. If you read about the case on wiki, it says, Senior began to find evidence around 2001 of what appeared to be a localised-grooming network. Most Risky Business clients had...

    Three girls

    In the drama last night it was an older white schoolboy who invited the first girl to his house after school and that was where it began. Then the taxis collecting them from school penned them in to the abuse. So, what I'm saying is that schools are aware that they have a duty to be vigilant for...

    Three girls

    On a different tack schools are very aware of the need for safeguarding now but it can be very tricky when you see a girl, for example, dressing and acting in, what can tactfully be described as a "trashy" way. Define the problem and try to enlist parents. How do you tell her mum who dresses or...

    Three girls

    BBC 1 at 9pm, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday this week. Each episode focuses on one of the three girls so if you watch them all you may see what parental supervision occurred (and therefore debate how much, "Where were the parents?" Is valid). FWIW as a parent and a teacher of kids this age I...

    General Election

    My real problem with the referendum was not being given any clue what Leave would mean. I think I was genuinely open to an argument for leaving the EU, based on a "this is what a Leave vote would mean." In other words I wanted to know answers to questions like, will we be in the single market...

    Three girls

    So many girls like these, neglected, given attention when they act trashy, treated like shit, used and abused. We are all guilty when we perceive young girls as slags etc. There are no child sex workers they are all victims of poverty, neglect and abuse. It goes without saying it happens to...

    Three girls

    please watch this BBC1 at 9pm every night. I want to smash something. I feel sick to the stomach how poor, white girls were treated like trash. Lads, look after your daughters, and everyone else's. And your boys. Don't let bastards like this ever get away with this outrage.

    Things that annoy you

    You may as well say adults who act like kids and end it there. I don't mean the odd moment. God, we can all be silly now and again. I mean adults who dress like kids, eat kids sweets and drink sugary pop all the time, speak like an episode of TOWIE, have an attention span of a constipated gnat...
