It is inevitable that, being who I am, this blog will contain a fair bit of comment on legal matters, including those cases which come before me in court. However, it is not restricted to such and may at times stray ‘off-topic’ and into whatever area interests me at the time.

All comments are moderated but sensible and relevant ones, even critical ones, are welcome; trolling and abuse is not and will be blocked.

Any actual case that I have been involved in, and upon which I may comment, will be altered in such a way as to make it completely unidentifiable.

Rooting Out Evil


There's a disturbing report in today's 'Mail Online'

read it here

regarding South Yorkshire Police, as if they haven't adequately blotted their copybook by a 23 year long cover-up of their deceit regarding the Hillsborough tragedy.

Documents released yesterday reveal that South Yorkshire Police turned a blind eye to allegations of the sexual abuse of white girls by gangs of Pakistani men for more than a decade.
It would seem that a string of warnings going back to 2000 were ignored by the authorities and in some cases police action was taken against the victims rather than the perpetrators, such as the 13-year-old girl, arrested for a public order offence after being found drunk at 3am in a derelict house with a ‘large group of adult males’ who had plied her with vodka and who the police allowed to just walk away.

In 2002, Home Office-funded research criticised officers for treating young victims as ‘deviant and promiscuous’ while ‘the men they were found with were never questioned or investigated’.

Research, reports and case files also reveal that Rotherham Council was desperate to cover up any racial link to the abuse of young girls. Revealing their fears, and their desperation to cover up the racial element of the abuse, a 2010 report from the Rotherham Safeguarding Children Board (?) said the crimes had ‘cultural characteristics ... which are locally sensitive in terms of diversity’, but warned of ‘sensitivities of ethnicity with potential to endanger the harmony of community relationships’.

As clear an indication of their political correctness and double-think as you could wish for.

This same Council even went so far down the road of denial that they offered a vulnerable white girl who was sexually abused by an Asian gang lessons in Urdu and Punjabi after her ordeal.

It's a disgrace, a profound miscarriage of justice and a gross disservice to the whole South Yorkshire community, be it Christian, Muslim, black, white or any other socio-racial grouping to sweep under the carpet something that has become all too apparent in Manchester, Bradford and elsewhere - that Asian men, unable to have extra-marital sex with girls of their own race, who's virtue is considered sacrosanct, seek out white girls, abuse them with drink or drugs, and use them for sexual gratification.
It isn't pleasant, it does no part of the Muslim community credit, but pretending, as Rotherham Council and South Yorkshire Police seem to do, that it just isn't happening, is not the way forward.

I quote Denis MacShane, MP for Rotherham, who said:
‘There’s a culture here of denial and cover-up and a refusal to accept the reality that we have men living in the Rotherham community who treat young girls as objects for their sexual pleasure. It’s time to tell the truth. We must root out this evil.’
