Rotherham child abuse scandal

[dazdon]

This stems from the top namely the British Muslim Council. How often do they speak out against their own even when they are aware of the failings of Muslims in this country and abroad.

People often make the mistake of assuming that that pile of unelected wankers in any way represents the views of British Muslims. They're a self-appointed spokesman for the entire Muslim population of the UK, and yet when surveyed, very few Muslims (less than 3%) will say that this group represents them. It's like claiming that Stephen Green represents all Christians because he happens to head an organisation called Christian Voice. In reality, most Christians think he's a prick. The Muslim Council of Britain, like most religious pressure groups, represent their own interests and no-one else's.

I'm not denying that there's not sometimes an issue with in-group thinking in certain (typically marginalised) communities in the UK and that the police have to deal with it when investigating crimes in that community. But this isn't an example of that. This isn't an issue of Muslims keeping quiet about the abuse going on in their community and the police not finding out about it. The police knew all of the facts and chose not to act for fear of offending cultural sensitivities. The great irony is that in trying to turn a blind eye to this in order to be PC, they've actually handed the bigots and racists all of the ammunition they need to drag community relations to a new low. The claims of muslamic ray guns are looking pretty accurate if you look at the headlines of today's papers.

To be fair...

When the Asian community (let's narrow this by mentioning Pakistanis) started to specifically target white girls to groom rape and abuse, they were the initiators of bad community relations.

The rest is just window dressing and blatant excusism.

When the police come down harsh on white gangs organising child rape for money and turn a blind eye to Asian gangs doing the same thing, it's not a massive surprise that Asian gangs end up representing the majority of criminals carrying out that particular crime. I can honestly understand why the police may occasionally turn a blind eye to certain crimes in order to ensure community support in tackling bigger social issues, but child rape? Really? That's one of the things we're going to let slide in the name of community cohesion now is it? Not only is it disgusting in the extreme, but it's a fucking insult to all of the Asian people who are as disgusted by this crime as everyone else, that they would somehow kick off if an organised gang of child rapists was dealt with by the police.

Surprise, surprise, the man in charge of the police is going to carry on picking up his salary and pension. The Labour Party are pretty universally saying that he should resign, but why the fuck haven't they fired him from the party if that's how they feel?

Personally I think it should be a criminal offence for the police to know about a serious crime and do nothing about it. At the very least, it should be gross negligence and you should be fired immediately.

As I said earlier, there is no accountability.

To date there have been NO disciplinary proceedings. Don't expect this to change either.

In the event of any executive resigning, it will be only once clinging to their shitty post has become untenable. And even then they will receive a pay-off for going quietly. "Ill health early retirement" enhancement if they're lucky, at a cost to the taxpayer of several hundred thousand pounds.

That's the way the system rolls. Just let it blow over, guys, then carry on as normal.

Serious question as I don't know the answer, but do the authorities believe Muslims are behind this?

The terminology was "Overwhelming majority".

This Shaun Wright scumbag won't resign even though he was the Councillor with responsibility for Child Protection (at the time) and is now the local Police Commissioner.

These Quango dwellers are only interested in themselves and are the enemies of public service.

So rotherham council are guilty of being scared of pointing out the 'overwhelming majority' of these sick acts are of asian origin, then the bbc insert a sector in their story from a group setup to help asian victims just to provide balance snd I assume to ensure they dont appear racist. Is a grouo setup to help ONLY ASIAN victims in itself racist. Can we imagine the uproar if there was a WOVOSE (whites only victims of sexusl expoitation). This shit will only stop if the bastards doing it are rounded up irrespective of their racial heritage, unfortunately we only need look at the stop and search debate to see that unfortunately its far too easy for some to use their ethnic origin to paint a convenient picture of persecution.
