They've managed to cover it up for the last 35 years, at least!
Can't see any reason the establishment will allow anything to change for the next 35 years!

I heard this one the radio on the way home with some commentator rubbing his hands saying that this will be bigger than the Profumo Affair.

If it really is true, it begs the question who wasn't abusing children back then. Celebrities, police and MP's all seem to have been at it.

If the BBC is part of the corruption then that news story is part of the conspiracy and so shouldn't be considered to be truthful.

If, and that's a huge if, anything ever comes of this, based on past performance, what's the betting, that even when presented with the facts, all plod and secret plod, involved were looking the other way, had their fingers their ears and know nothing?

I would think that the vast majority of those involved would be long since retired or deceased now. It would be more harmful for the government to interfere at this stage even to push it along than to sit back and let the police do their thing. It's possible an old and bold backbencher may have been involved but chances are nobody at the higher levels of government these days would be incriminated.

Better to wait and see what comes of it rather than try and rabble rouse now, it won't undo what happened and could result in false accusations.

The decision to drop this sordid business I doubt has anything to do with the police, it will have come down from the highest position in government via the Home Secretary. The police would have had no say in the matter and could do nothing but comply.

It's a great way of guaranteeing that people will do what they're told; I imagine that otherwise such people wouldn't get into power.

Or I would in a world where conspiracies actually existed, of course.

I feel really depressed learning about this despicable coverup. This are some of the worst crimes imaginable, committed by people high up in the uk government and concealed by the very people paid to investigate and prevent such abuse.

This is not new's. At the time Private Eye printed a lot about it. Under the cover of if it's wrong they will sue. You guessed it no one sue'ed. No other paper picked it up. And the story died a slow death of no interest.

People with power over others are in a position to abuse, so that can incriminate any of us. People with more power than most are free to abuse more, same motive as anyone in any art of society might have but more means and more opportunity. The more inequality in society, the greater the number of disempowered the greater the scale of abuse. Victorian Britain was a cesspool of abuse exactly because there were so many potential victims close to hand for a wealth expanding idle class to take advantage of. The way things have been going over the last quarter of a century we're well on our way to creating a new haven for wealthy powerful peados.
