Statistical ratification will not change the blatant fact that Keir must deal with the matter at hand. He either comes down hard on this or effectively " green lights" other abusers. Of which according to you there are many?

 

England deserves better than a proxy nonce career knee bender.

This is true, the laws need to be up to the standards we demand, must be suitable and applied properly and fairly to all. If they are found to be lacking then amend them or make new laws. I think Labour picking up recommendations of an enquiry (commissioned and then ignored by the Tory party) is a good first step to updating them.

 

Noting that the 'proxy' leader in his time at the CPS implemented procedural changes and so on which saw a stepped increase in prosecutions of grooming gangs and child sex exploitation. Jess Philips has always campaigned on the same issues (as well as other abuses towards girls and women). I think we'll see a slow and steady increase and tightening of legislation along these lines over the next 4 years (and in my view surpassing the Tory parties legislation for all the time they were in office). This is a good thing.

 

 

(You'll maybe disagree here, but copy and pasting links from any papers, Linkedin, Facebook, Bebo or where ever, bypassing the brains thinking "Is this the full story, is there a hidden agenda" just reinforces the racist stereotypes and agenda of the sources, adds to the perception that the crimes are only carried out by foreigners... because it furthers an agenda... and that sells more papers... profiting politically from anothers suffering is never a good thing... )

Yes, I usually have a reliable resource. Think it was this article I was reading:

Home Secretary Suella Braverman made several comments about the ethnicity of some high-profile gangs.

Yep and what a source it is.

Not disagreeing with the sentiment Dave, when I saw the clip of them being recaptured they were like a couple of shit scared little kittens, looking towards the headtorches hoping to be saved, but I'd be interested to know why one died.

Exposure, eaten something bad, shock?

They didn't look to be injured.

Saw a clip, probably the news, the two poor beasts looking hopefully into the light of the headtorches.

 

Edit.

Not the clip I remember but similar, poor wee things!

Well the temperatures up here recently have been brutal. The stupidity of those who did it alongside those who celebrated it is beyond belief.

I liked this one, he hit the nail on the head with the point that Musk is exploiting the victims of childhood abuse. He’s an utter scum bag. He doesn’t even do anything of value, I bet he’d never had an original idea in his life. 
 

Farage is a spineless streak of piss but even so it’s embarrassing to see him getting his knickers in a twist for his American friends.

Yes, he hit a few nails on the head again. Also, Musk isn't the only one exploiting the victims here, there's plenty of others trying to gain political capital, and not just politicians.
