Nah, The police (generally) just don't give a toss for people with nothing. In Newcastle over 10 years ago a mate of mine, who works in that sector personally handed evidence to a DCI and he said that no jury would believe the women involved. The cops were and are well aware of the perpetrators, as the people who work at the hostels these people stay in have safeguarding measures in place.

Blame the Tories for a failure to sort out the criminal justice and prison system. They could have sorted it so that rapists wouldn't be getting released early, but nope, they sold off a few jails to Serco and Amey and spraffed it all on bitches and hoes. 
 

Oh ok it’s all the tories fault 🤷‍♂️🤔

The current prison system, lack of funding for the police, and the barristers on strike shenanigans is plainly down to the last government. 

Nobody said that it hadn't been going on for a long time. In fact do you really think that when my mate went to that DCI she was going off one recent report?

Choose a different soapbox.

Yep, I saw that too. Sad indeed. Poor people have been living there in harmony with the world around them for god knows how many thousands of years and then we show up with bulldozers, chainsaws and guns to rape and pillage it all. If the bullets don't get them then the deseases probably will.

Aye and you've been rimming them since you got on here.

Ok so you are now the resident arbtalk grooming gang expert eh 👍we shall all shut up and bow to your superior knowledge wherever you obtained it. I never claimed to know the ins and outs Mark I just as you admitted pointed out how long it had been going on for. 

Quite frankly I’d rather not know the sordid details and the extent that the victims were failed by successive governments and police forces. As for the tories don’t talk crap Mark I have been massively critical of them the last few years as well you know in particular during the covid farce. I do think Labour will be worse but 🤷‍♂️that’s just my opinion. You certainly wont stop me expressing it any time soon I can promise you that. My sister who now is up at Acklington for HMP, incidentally she wont swap to the serco deal, has been involved throughout the system with some grim stuff but won’t discuss any of it out of work and rightly so.
