    If the police didn't have a rep for being racist, they wouldn't be so scared of not being "politically correct".

    Cuts both ways. One was an overreaction to the other.

    It wasn't so long ago that being gay was a crime in our society, 1967 for England and Wales and 1980 for Scotland and even today prejudice remains both in terms of sex and sexual orientation. Just look at the difference in pay in terms of gender or career track if you have any illusion. Ok its relative but the prejudice is there.

    The failure of the police and councils was laid bare by the independent enquiry and reverts back to the issue that the vulnerable and weak will always be exploited by the unscrupulous in society and that's whatever society we're referencing.


    Of course people will use facts taken out of context for their own political gain but the failure was systemic and the nature of mankind was examined through a lens which most people find abhorrent which I suppose if your grasping for straws is about the only positive. However if you care to overlay the same behaviours that came to light in Islington Council by a certain Margaret Hodge, who resigned and went into private practise only to appear 9 years after as Minister for Children makes your blood run cold. This was a person who not only failed to investigate but also went on the offensive to deny the accusations and even accused the abused person "extremely disturbed". She settled in the High Court paying out £30k for that slip.

    By coincidence the guy that Margaret Hodge called disturbed was my boss in one of his subsequent jobs - a great guy and someone I'd put in charge of this country without hesitation. Apart from that aside though what point are you making there Slowmart ?

    The enablers for the abusers to continue is different in terms of labelling for each society. Either religious, cultural or political but the outcome is the same.

    But plenty of Muslim men have been locked up for sex crimes before and since that case. Why did nobody call the police, CPS, judge and jury racist in those cases?
