It certainly was. It beggars belief that it went on for so long when so many in authority were aware that things were seriously amiss too.

Did somebody say 'Muslims'?

Couldn't find one, but really you need an animated picture of a women in a burkha, eyes animated going from left to right & back, with the words
"Did somebody say 'Muslims'? "

From her column with Mohan Singh

He said people are too afraid to speak the truth. And it is a curious thing, because girl after girl tells me, reminds me, they never gave a thought to the religious beliefs of the man who groomed them, who they thought loved them.

They didn't even see a difference in culture or colour. They were colour-blind to the hook who plucked them from their lives to feed a hungry group of men.

They only remember his kindness, what it felt like to be special, how thrilling it was to feel loved.

Race and religion don't come into it for the girls. And that is Mohan's point, too. Whoever is to blame, we need to focus on the fact that sexual abuse of children is wrong.

I think he is right. To agree sexual abuse of children is wrong must be a fundamental starting point for every conversation.

not sure how anyone can disagree with that.

Or this statistic.

But we cannot sidestep the fact that 90 per cent of grooming gangs charged with offences are Muslim. And yet only 5 per cent of the population follows Islam.

They were perverts who like Jimmy Savile & other 'stars' were given free rein to abuse because it was just too difficult to challenge them. Any person's blood should be boiling regardless of culture. To score cheap points is sad and should make you ashamed.

Watched episodes 2 & 3 back to back last night, wondered half way through how much of it was factual and how much was "drama". Unfortunately most of it really happened the way they showed it.

Do we know what % of child abuse is conducted by grooming gangs and what % happens within families etc.?

This should be interesting

lets hope they lay off the whitewash.

Allegedly this is horribly common with kids in care for the same reasons they succeeded in this case lack of self respect & affection.

It doesn't really. After cops had it drummed into them for years that they were "institutionally racist", there was bound to be overcompensation the other way. The blame lies entirely with the daft politicians, not cops just trying to do their jobs.
