How can adults who are employed to protect children not put the children first through fear of being called racist?
How can police officials refuse to take allegations seriously on such a huge scale? You can`t just blame those who created this apparent climate flush, feck the climate these are adults in charge here, there are no excuses. |

After a while the "climate" does affect those who exist in it. Most of those with nous and intelligence leave for pastures new. Pastures where they expect to do the job for which they have been professionally trained.
Those that stay prefer self service to public service. They embrace Committees, Steering Groups, flexi-time, equality and diversity courses, strikes, grievance procedures, internal re-organisations with more and more non-jobs. They are more concerned with their own sanitised working conditions than children being exploited under their noses. |

I could tell you about how you have to follow council policy when working for them, as I once did. But I cannot be ar$ed - the whole system is rotten.

By:
Does council policy mean protecting abusers for fear of being branded? Surely as an individual it is your duty to protect children from abuse regardless of anything, even if it means you facing the board.

"Several staff described their nervousness about identifying the ethnic origins of perpetrators for fear of being thought racist," she said.
"Others remembered clear direction from their managers not to do so." Rotherham Council accepted that failures were not down to "front line social or youth workers who are acknowledged in the report as repeatedly raising serious concerns about the nature and extent of this kind of child abuse". Sounds like the individuals were not as brave as you might like, Angel. |

By:
Sickening. There needs to be accountability and those responsible for these failings sent to jail.
"Several staff described their nervousness about identifying the ethnic origins of perpetrators for fear of being thought racist," Fking pathetic. |

Very much so Arley
Others remembered clear direction from their managers not to do so." Who the feck are these managers! name nad shame the ****s..who is to say they are not part of the ring? |
|
By:
Agree, Angel.
Reportedly, no Council employees will face disciplinary action! Never mind, "lessons will no doubt have been learned" - as they always are every time. Plus ca change.......... |

By:
Yes, apparently the new system has been a glorious success since..
But make sure you pay your CTax on time or else. Waaankers! |

Having worked for a local council ( not Rotherham but close by ) I can imagine how this happened. By the 1990s if not before there was definitely a sort of inverted racism permeating the place.

By:
The people who will deny decent people the opportunity to look after the vulnerable if they smoke or vote UKIP will turn a blind eye to all manner of shennanigans in order to play PC bingo. It's a bit like the saying about not trusting those who want to be politicians with political power. Clearly if those who are prepared to subvert their principles to climb the managerial ladder get to do so then these services need to be reordered with different priorities. Something really radical like putting the kids needs first, second and third.

The MP for Rotherham Sarah Champion says the council must apologise for mistakes and accept the findings of a report which found that around 1,400 children were victims of abuse between 1997 and 2013.
Apologise and carry on, it`s that easy. ffs. |
|
By:
Dennis MacShane was the MP for Rotherham before Sarah Champion,he is currently residing in some British jail.
He should be there for treason but is actually there for fiddling expenses and fraud. He was previously the Minister for Europe and partly responsible for the Labour policy of flooding your country with immigrants for electoral gain and in their own words " to rub the rights nose in it " |

Don't put all the blame on the liberals flushy. There's plenty of 60's Trots and radical feminists who helped start the rot in this country.

By:
In the twisted logic of Rotherham its better to be a rapist than a racist.
Is this the same police force that broke into Cliff Richards flat whilst at the the same time tipping off the BBC. Terrified of offending the permanently offended. |

You. I'm looking at you you red tinged bellend. Passing the blame for the shiite that has been allowed to flourish under the permissive society. It wasn't conservatives and people of decent moral fibre who wrecked the penal system and undermined the family unit. That was your Labour party. Take it like a man instead of sobbing all the time about liberals. If you've shiit in the bed at least have the decency to clean it up yourself instead of blaming it on some fantasy bogey man.

I am fairly sure i have been consistently berating the labour party for what it has allowed itself to become,so dont try to lecture me you uniform fetishist sheepshagging pole dancer. |

By:
as a natural labour supporter and socialist I have to say that the malaise is so deep rooted that it will not be got rid of
sorry and all that it will continue there are another 50 cases outstanding although I have been accused of racism for raising this point and that is how it works - understand this |

Good to hear Salmon ,so I assume you were critical of your left wing peers who called anyone who raised issues like this 'racist' at that time .

Yes.

Our moral decline didn't begin under Blair or Thatcher. It began in the 60's under the permssive society ushered in by the Labour party. Your party were in power then. You cry about what Blair did. I'm concerned about what Wilson and his Labour party did in the late 60's. To be fair that vile specimen Heath as well. |

Whilst these children were being abused Rotherham council was taking three children away from their foster parents because they were UKIP members.

The failures of the council ( and the police btw )seem to have been monumental. I doubt anybody on here disagrees tbh. That's not because we are all the same person.

South Yorkshire's Police and Crime Commissioner is facing calls to resign after the publication of a report into widespread child abuse in Rotherham.

Just seen him on TV,defending himself. He was The Council Cabinet Member responsible for Children's Services between 2005 and 2010 before becoming Police Commissioner sometime later. He is stuggling to find a leg to stand on imo.

Guys name is Shaun Wright. I've just realised he is responsible for policing in the WHOLE of S Yorks. I don't think I am leaving my flat for the foreseeable future. He was actually elected on something like a 7% turnout ( which didn't include me ).

It appears that those two dreadful words have got a lot to answer for,namely POLITICAL CORRECTNESS.People are scared to "say it how it is".
As previously posted there isn't a day goes by without an issue over one particular religion,in one form or another,due to their vastly different sense of right and wrong. |

Disgraced former Labour politician Denis MacShane has admitted that he shied away from investigating allegations of a child sex abuse scandal in Rotherham because he is a 'true Guardian reader' and did not want to 'rock the multi-cultural boat'.
The former MP, who resigned as MP in 2012 over the expenses scandal, said ‘misplaced racial sensitivity’ prevented him from 'burrowing into' the widespread sexual abuse allegations and oppression of women in the Muslim community. He made the comments after a damning child protection report found 1,400 children were sexually exploited in the town by gangs - most of them of Pakistani origin - between 1997 and 2013. A group of 'influential' Pakistani councillors were accused in the report by a council officer of blocking attempts to tackle the abuse and also meddling in domestic abuse cases involving Asian women in the town. Mr McShane said: 'I think probably [I didn’t do as much as I could]. I think that I should have burrowed into it. 'Perhaps yes, as a true Guardian reader, and liberal leftie, I suppose I didn’t want to raise that too hard.' He also told the BBC: 'I think there was a culture of not wanting to rock the multi-cultural community boat if I may put it like that.' But Mr McShane insisted today that no individual came to see him about the allegations and that he once had a 'huge row' with a fellow MP when the issue was probed. He said: 'What I can say was that no single individual, no constituent, no child, no family same to see me. 'I was concerned about it, I raised it quite often, it’s difficult sometimes for an MP to second guess everything that the chief executive of a borough was doing and all the senior officials.

The report also alleges that Labour politicians from the same community 'acted as barriers' to attempts to tackle the 16-year campaign of abuse.
