http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/nov/03/tom-watson-wrote-to-two-dpps-to-intervene-in-sexual-abuse-cases#_=_ Tom Watson wrote to two DPP's to intervene in sexual abuse cases Tom Watson MP Why are the Guardian and other elements in the media, waging such a hysterical campaign in pursuit of an MP who asks questions? There is nothing wrong or sinister when an Member of Parliament challenges the actions or more often inaction's, of the DPP or Police or any other body in failing to pursue investigations, into allegations of criminal acts, particularly where such acts are alleged to have been committed by elements of "the establishment" and particularly where such acts involve the abuse of children. Far too often, the "authorities" terminate their enquiries into such matters using the "insufficient evidence" or "investigations are not in the public interest" or other such reasoning, to rationalise no further actions be...

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/aug/05/convict-dead-defenceless-case-edward-heath How easy it is to convict the dead and defenceless -says Simon Jenkins. Simon Jenkins. Guardian. Simon Jenkins either by accident, or more probably design, completely misses the point. By exposing the "dead ones" in the higher echelons of the British "establishment" (ignore Harris, Clifford, Glitter and the others who were only put up as sacrificial lambs in any case), attention can be diverted away from those still living and occupying positions of influence and power in the establishment ranks and no doubt still indulging themselves in the abuse of children. The conspiracy of cover up and deceit continues, with the occasional morsel of a dead "famous figure" thrown out to keep the public off the scent of deeper scandal. Edward Heath. Allegations of abuse Simon Jenkins really ought to know this and should target his articl...

Greville Janner escapes any conseqences of his alleged child abuse activities dating back over many years, as he is suffering from dementia, a condition which has apparently deteriorated since police searched his home and he first became a suspect. However, right up until December 2013, he was fit enough to attend the House of Lords and claim the associated expenses. It seems that investigation and prosecutio...
http://exaronews.com/articles/5529/ministers-block-move-to-lift-official-secrets-act-for-csa-scandal#.VQ5qXuVzqoE.twitter Government rejects immunity for public officials who "blow whistle" on child sex abuse. Home Secretary Theresa May This is outrageous. Clearly there are still MP's, civil servants and police who are implicated in this abuse and the conspiracy to prevent full investigation and prosecution of those involved. The malignant scandal of this abuse and the stench of corruption in the echelons of the establishment including the aristocracy, has been an affront and insult to both the victims and the ordinary people for far too long and must now be completely exposed. Those Ministers and civil servants now preventing further investigations and revelations by threat implied or otherwise, blackmail and the use of the Official Secrets Act to silence those who would otherwise provide further evidence, is a sign of desperation and panic in government ci...
http://www.theguardian.com/media/2015/feb/26/jimmy-savile-abuse-stoke-mandeville-hospital-inquiry Jimmy Savile abused 60 people at Stoke Mandeville hospital, inquiry finds The report published yesterday, reveals perhaps only part of the extent to which Savile carried out his odious sex abuse over many decades. The report contains many recommendations in respect of measures to be introduced covering monitoring of volunteers in the NHS, reporting incidents of suspected abuse, and a number of other proposals most of which Jeremy Hunt, the Secretary of State for Health, accepted during his statement to the House of Commons yesterday (26th February 2015). During the same statement Mr Hunt issued an apology on behalf of the government and NHS, on at least three occasions which now seems to be standard practice as if in some way, saying sorry makes every thing all right. It was also noticeable that the report contained detailed descript...
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/child-abuse-inquiry-theresa-may-under-pressure-to-give-investigation-greater-powers-9833677.html Theresa May under pressure to give investigation greater powers. Home Secretary: Theresa May As the much delayed inquiry into child sex abuse descends even further into the world of pantomime, another potential chair for this investigation bows to pressure and stands down from the post. It will be difficult, if not impossible, to find a suitable candidate to fill the role of chair for this essential inquiry, who has not had some contact or relationship with, or perhaps is related to, some “establishment” figure implicated in or otherwise involved in some form or other, at any level, with the allegations of abuse and the alleged cover up of these crimes. Fiona Woolf Elizabeth Butler-Sloss The perception prevails, rightly or wrongly, that “th...
Labour peer's letters to care home boy revealed as questions grow around Theresa May's recently announced inquiry.
http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/jul/13/labour-peer-letters-boy-questions On the 7th July, Home secretary Theresa May announced a wide-ranging inquiry into public bodies' and institutions' handling of historical child abuse allegations, to be headed by retired judge Lady Butler-Sloss. The inquiry would include allegations of historical abuse involving politicians. Home Secretary Theresa May. There are many reasons, some small but not insignificant, and some larger contentions, which cumulatively provide overwhelming justification for the growing insistence for the removal of Lady Butler-Sloss as head of the recently announced inquiry into public bodies' and institutions' handling of historical child abuse.The family relationship between Butler-Sloss and the former Attorney General Sir Michael (Later Lord) Havers, should in itself, be enough of a reason to bar the appointment, but it seems that Theresa May and David Cameron have complete co...
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/18yearold-woman-charged-with-death-of-baby-8862749.html 18-year-old woman charged with death of baby All those "lessons to be learned" from other cases going back over many years appear to have been disregarded again. I am sure that from this latest case, the facts will be examined (again) and the subsequent enquiry will report (again) that many factors were missed and that lessons will be learned (again). An appalling catalogue of failures in the Health Services, the Social services, the police and other bodies have plagued our society for far too long. It may well be that "the systems" contribute to the failures, but the systems are designed and operated by real people who frequently hide behind the excuse of systems failures for their own incompetence. Where people fail they should be removed from their positions, and not allowed to avoid their responsibilities with an apology and the cliche of lessons wi...
