Savile Report live on bbc news now.

By:
A woman on the BBC radio Today programme this morning, claimed she'd worked at Stoke M hospital for decades and had never heard of one allegation or rumour against Saville in all the years she was working there.
She said he saved the hospital from closure and put in hours and hours of work for the hospital. She hadn't got a bad word to say against him. |

I lived near Aylesbury throughout the 70's and 80's.
It was an open secret amongst pretty much everyone that if your child had to go to Stoke Mandeville, you should not let Saville anywhere near them. As we know, nothing was ever proved and it appears, only one formal complaint was made (then ignored) but for anyone who worked there or lived in Aylesbury Vale not to have heard of the rumours, well, they are lying |

In the 1990 Queen's Birthday Honours he was made a Knight Bachelor "for charitable services",[149] entitled to use the honorific prefix "Sir". Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher had made four attempts to have him knighted before succeeding in her final year in office.[150]
Savile was honoured with a Papal knighthood by being made a Knight Commander of the Pontifical Equestrian Order of Saint Gregory the Great (KCSG) by Pope John Paul II in 1990.[152] |

With the Pope and The Prime Minister behind him I'm not surprised he got away with it.

Is there anyone who was treated at that hospital who doesn't claim they were abused by Saville?
Stroll on, it's reached 500 now. How did he find time to do anything else? I'm not trying to dispute for a second that he was at it, but on the scale that's being reported? I think there must be one or two porkies in that lot. |

By:
It took a man who died before there were any rumours. Now there are dozens of 'celebs' being investigated or doing time. Strange imo.
Having said that, if that's just the celebs, just how rife is it in the rest of the community? |
|
By:
Savile got away with it because of many things, but there were a series of missed opportunities, lot of people knew he was creepy and a sex pest.
Very bad error of judgement by Thatcher, the prime minister of the day going against her officials advising her about Savile. And with people like that at the top they made it easier for the vile Savile to carry on and get away with it. |

Times that by the amount of untouchables he knew,makes the Rotherham fiasco look miniscule in comparison...

By:
The people who just turned a ´blind-eye´ are just as vile as savile imo. The nurse came in and told a girl to be quiet and that Savile would not do such a dreadful thing and he raised a great deal of money for the hospital.... All this going on when it was all meant to be such an ´open-secret´.

Love letter from Jimmy Savile to Margret Thatcher |

By:
“Dear Prime Minister. I waited a week before writing to thank you for my lunch invitation because I had such a superb time I didn’t want to be too effusive.
My girl patients pretended to be madly jealous + wanted to know what you wore + what you ate. All the paralysed lads called me ‘Sir James’ all week. They all love you. Me too!! Jimmy Savile OBE xxx." |

Does anyone remember the 'modern slavery' case which started out with 3 people held in so-called 'invisible chains' in London in a Maoist colony run by Comrade Bala.
This is still dragging through the courts, all the slavery accusations have been dropped ( except 1 for an odd-date period 1983-1999 ) and almost 20 rape and sex assault accusations are now on the charge sheet. Something is weird - it seems if you go looking for crimes relating to historic sexy abuse, then you will find them. |
