Why bring it up? It hasn’t been brought up in the report. It’s odd that you and Shhmeee talk about ‘inappropriate relationships’ between 16-17 year olds and people in their 20s. Yes, it’s odd but the legal age of consent is 16. The report is talking about specific organised gangs that targeted...

In a nutshell, this is what the scandal actually is. The report hasn’t stated that there was an unwillingness to go after white perpetrators because there is insufficient evidence. The evidence in the case of Pakistani perpetrators, the local authorities just did not want The defensiveness and...

Yes, and what it find about the perpetrators of this? A disproportionate amount of the crimes were committed by non-UK nationals. There was a systematic unwillingness to investigate those crimes due to fears of being labelled racist and/or inflaming community tensions. That second paragraph is...

Reopen cold cases to prosecute more perpetrators. Deport any non-UK born criminals successfully convicted. Investigate the role of Whitehall, local government and police in the scandal. Again, prosecute officials involved, particularly where corruption is involved (i.e. the police). Now I’d...

Agreed and both the Tories and Labour are being punished for it too.

It’s another embarrassing U-turn for the government, but at least he’s done it. Even if that makes him and his cabinet ‘far right’ now! 😂 There’s been that many U-turns by this government already, it’s a worrying trend of bad political judgement.

In the minds of the victims-turned-campaigners, clearly not enough people have gone to jail. There are more pertinent questions actually. First, do you believe the authorities have done enough on this? Second, do you believe there is ethnic/religious dimension to this? Third, do you believe...

This is gaslighting Fernando. The government called out anyone calling for a national inquiry on this ‘jumping on the far right bandwagon’. What’s been done about it? Nothing. Anyone found to be complicit/incompetent in this issue needs to be jailed. It’s only off the back of this report that...

It’s not just the police. It’s the local and national establishments. For years any discussion around the ethnicity of grooming gangs was dismissed as racist by polite society. If we can’t be honest about the ethnicity and/or nationalities of perpetrators of crime and have difficult...

The report specifically made the link between Pakistani grooming gangs and offences. Even so, if you follow a thread, it was pretty obvious if people took the time to read the back and forths.

Actually, no. The context was that BSB had said ‘using the actions of a few as a slur for many’… I’m pretty confident we were on the same page we were talking about Pakistani men that was specifically looked at in the report. The confusion that’s been caused is when I said ‘1 in 16 men in...

The numbers are extracted from the report. There’s no misrepresentation at all.

This is Rotherham specifically. It’s also interesting that the Casey Report debunked the 2020 Home Office report that stated ‘white men’ were the majority of sex offenders was based on no credible evidence or data. Yet, this phrase was often cited by ‘the establishment’, Emily Maitlis called...

The second line is correct.

To clarify, it’s specifically up to 1 in 16 men of Pakistani origin (15+). Based on number of suspects who had been arrested (160) and population as of the 2011 census (2,529). In the area, it made up 64% of all the gang rape cases. Very uncomfortable facts to deal with.

1 in 16 men in Rotherham isn’t the actions of a few unfortunately.

The reality is that the authorities just didn’t want to deal with these crimes because it had pretty significant ramifications for the image of Britain as a successful multicultural society. It was far easier to blame the victims. This scandal demonstrates how classist the UK can be too.

What a stupid thing of you to say. The report has made the explicit link between sexual exploitation of underage girls (10-15) and suspects being over represented by men of Pakistani origin. This is organised crime, not a rabble of weirdos who do creepy things like dating 16-17 year olds.

It is creepy, but it’s legal. It would still be legal if we implemented age gap limits as some countries do of 10 years. Besides, what would actually change? You seem more animated by this than the original topic which strikes me as odd.

00/01 for me!
