Jersey abuse enquiry. Prevarication, delay and now reporting restrictions


Concerns about delayed historic child abuse inquiry.


 A Jersey politician is raising concern in the States next week about the delayed Inquiry into historic child abuse. Deputy Trevor Pitman wants to know when abuse victims can expect the investigation to start.
It's been postponed after the newly appointed chairman Sally Bradley QC had to withdraw due to ill-health. Deputy Pitman will be asking the Chief Minister what progress has been made in finding a replacement.

There is a story noted on the front page of "channelonline.tv" 
It is not possible to link in with any details, or to find any other reference to the story on either this channel or on the BBC local channel or even in the Jersey Evening Post. No matter how much the "establishment" in Jersey may wish to keep many odious details of this obscene scandal secret and no matter how much prevarication and delay they may throw into the investigation, the story is "in the public domain" to a wider audience than the 85,000 or so people who inhabit the island. Perhaps the next step in the imposition of censorship and control is to ban listening to or watching any news programmes, or reading any papers emanating from outside the island. The Germans imposed such restrictions between 1940 and 1945, and I am sure that if they thought that they could get away with it the Jersey "authorities" would apply the same controls now.

Northern Ireland and Brexit. The return of "The Troubles"

Northern Ireland: police attacked in another night of disturbances | Northern Ireland | The Guardian When the "Brexit" debate was still filling our newspapers and our television screens, readers may remember why I had changed my mind since voting to leave at the referendum vote. Apart from the economic arguments, which had become crystal clear after peeling away all the lies and misrepresentations trotted out by Bozo Boris and his "Get Brexit Done" conspirators, there was always the problem of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Would it be possible to have a border between the European Union and the United Kingdom where people, goods and services could pass freely between the two nations without customs restrictions, tariffs, duties and all the other formalities? Would it be possible to have one part of the United Kingdom treated differently from other parts of the United Kingdom, particularly when Scotland for example had voted overwhe...

There will be many people over the coming months and years who will tell the "pollsters" that something should be done about the homeless, or the costs of electric, gas and water, or about the costs of public transport, or the failing (and privatised) NHS, or the excessive profits and tax avoidance of large corporations. etc. To all those I say, that if you did not vote Labour then you have only yourselves to blame and you must bear the consequences of your actions. Johnson a nd his sycophant cronies have been given a blank cheque to do as they please and sell off vast portions of the British economy to the Americans, (the takeover of British defence giant Cobham by a US private equi...

Greed and envy are good says Boris Johnson.

  http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/embrace-culture-of-greed-says-boris-johnson-8968276.html Embrace culture of greed, says Boris Johnson Boris Johnson.  "I stress – I don't believe that economic equality is possible; indeed some measure of inequality is essential for the spirit of envy and keeping up with the Joneses that is, like greed, a valuable spur to economic activity." Johnson delivering the annual Margaret Thatcher lecture at the Centre for Policy Studies think-tank, Wednesday 27th November 2013 Boris Johnson seeks to emulate Thatcher. He appeals to the evil side of the "nasty" party, for a society where greed is good, where selfishness is encouraged, where division amongst people by envy and status is championed as a proper objective and where the excesses of business and government are regarded as appropriate and right for the advancement of the few at the expense of the many. Johnson is an evil man with evil intent...
