“A report by Alexis Jay exposed ‘blatant’ failures by police and the Labour-run local council, where officials feared racism accusations at the time. The independent inquiry said an unpublished Home Office research report from 2002 described the extent of child sexual exploitation in Rotherham and a series of criticisms over the response ‘that should have raised concern’.

The Home Office sat on this information for a decade while the lives of untold numbers of British girls were ruined. Everyone who drew up that report in 2002 and then stayed quiet about it should be fired now, and barred from public life forever. They sacrificed their nation’s future to their fear of being called “Islamophobic.” If Britain has any hope of surviving as a free society, and that hope is very, very dim at this point, the entire British political elite class that enabled this massive betrayal needs to be repudiated and thrown out of office. But that isn’t happening.
“Home Office had information on Rotherham grooming gangs in 2002 but failed to act, review finds,” by Lizzie Dearden, Independent, July 18, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The government received information detailing the extent of grooming gang activity in Rotherham as far back as 2002 but failed to properly act on it, a review has found.
The National Crime Agency’s ongoing investigation has revealed that more than 1,500 girls and young women may have been abused in the Yorkshire town between 1997 and 2013.
A report by Alexis Jay exposed “blatant” failures by police and the Labour-run local council, where officials feared racism accusations at the time.
The independent inquiry said an unpublished Home Office research report from 2002 described the extent of child sexual exploitation in Rotherham and a series of criticisms over the response “that should have raised concern”.
But a large-scale inquiry was not launched until after a Times report on the scale of grooming provoked a national scandal a decade later.
An internal Home Office review of the information it handled could not locate the 2002 document but found that records were “imperfectly operated” and it may have been received.
After reviewing the internal probe, barrister Richard Whittam QC and NSPCC chief executive Peter Wanless concluded that the government had been “significant and proportionate” and found no evidence of files deliberately being destroyed.
But they added: “The department knew that significant disputes between local agencies in Rotherham existed within the research project.
“However, the Home Office focus seems specifically to have been on the consequence of such disputes for the advancement of evidence that would support a commissioned evaluation, rather than the cause of such disputes.
“Closer consideration of the latter could have uncovered faster the failings we now know were putting children at risk.”
They called on the Home Office to improve its recording of child abuse allegations to ensure they are prioritised.
Sajid Javid, the home secretary, said the recommendation had been accepted and that the department introduced a new referral system in 2014.
He acknowledged that “opportunities to follow up on, or seek further information about, matters in Rotherham including whether the police and other statutory agencies were responding appropriately existed”.
“As public servants, we all have an important responsibility to raise and respond effectively to any safeguarding concerns we may encounter in the work we do – not least allegations of child sexual abuse,” Mr Javid said.
“The permanent secretary and I take this issue extremely seriously and the Home Office will continue to promote amongst all staff the vital importance of using all available information to consider if a child is at risk of abuse.”
Sarah Champion, the Labour MP for Rotherham, said it was “clear that the Home Office knew about child sexual exploitation in Rotherham from 2002”.
“Why, when so many in authority knew the scale and severity of this crime, did it take until 2014, with the publication of the Jay report, for a large-scale investigation to occur?” she asked. “How many lives could have been protected if swift action had been taken a decade before?”…
The most recent abuser jailed was 42-year-old Tony Chapman, who was imprisoned for 25 years in May for raping two girls and indecently assaulting another….

British cops realize that safety for kafir women and children is a culturally biased negation of another religion’s traditions.

UK and the upside down idiotic world in which it finds itself in would rather prosecute Patriots rather than going after Islamic/Asian rapists. Shame on the UK Establishment for allowing a once great nation to slide into shit hole status.

Good or bad depends very much on where you stand on immigration from the Third World and “multiculturalism”.
Ewanda says
Whatever happened to members of the police force having a functional backbone in order to voice the phrase, “Sticks and stones will break my bones – but names (racist, Islamophobe) will never hurt me!” and act for justice?
Salome says
Swift action wouldn’t have saved the two victims of Tony Chapman, but it would have saved hundreds if not thousands of others who were the victims of grooming and raping gangs belonging to an imported ‘culture’. Every society has its Tony Chapmans. Most societies deal with them.
Anne Smith says
Only Islam sanctions rape where the female is non Muslim.
I don’t know what religion Chapman was, but I would not think his religion – if he had any – would have sanctioned rape.

UK Home Office had information on Muslim rape gangs in 2002, failed to act for fear of “racism” charges

*Shameful*.
MFritz says
A major political scandal! But don’t think – only – along the lines of “incompetence” and political agenda (e.a. not to be called “racist”) if you read this.
Grooming is also a business. These Pakistanis most likely “greased” a lot of hands along the lines and I wouldn’t bet that there isn’t an official (or two) who got more than a bit involved.
Joe says
Rotherham, as we are discovering, is only one of many. These rape scandals are in many other towns as well. That is a lot of people looking the other way.
Clive Stephen Delmonte says
We need the names of the Home Office officials in post from 2002 onwards from the permanent secretary downwards, especially those responsible for Rotheram and such areas. Perhaps a “Freedom of Information” question would elicit a helpful response.
A lot of daylight might assist UK officialdom to start taking their responsibilities seriously.
If we are to endure police and Home Office indifference to criminal activity the nation must start to take steps to protect itself from those who govern us.

The UK is in such a state now that only a Christian revival will save us

Take a look at this report from the Guardian in 2011. Jack Straw, then Home Secretary actually pin pointed the problem and the responsible officials all cheerfully denied it – even the Barnardo’s CEO went so far as to state that it was not a problem for a particular ethnic group, How wrong can you be and this is a man who was charged with protecting vulnerable young people. Jack Straw’s comments show that the officials knew it was going on but chose to deny it in the name of multiculturalism.

Having worked in forensics (computing) for over three decades with law enforcement in Australia. I’m pretty certain it wasn’t just them fearing the word “racist” being thrown at them. But also those with the power to act. Being part of the raping & even the trafficking. At the very least. The gangs paid some of those cops Mafia-style ‘protection money’. Which is why reports, files & evidence vanished. It’s not that easy to lose evidence. People have to be extraordinarily incompetent, across entire departments, and over decades for information to be so consistently lost. They weren’t lost. Someone lost them. And it would have been a number of individuals who were part of the protection racket. For which no doubt the gangs paid them handsomely. Don’t forget, some girls were trafficked between boroughs, into other countries & even into North Africa. It’s hard to do that without official ‘assistance’. I don’t think Tony Chapman is the only one. I think there are more. Many more. The Islamophobia was a convenient & believable excuse of course. And certainly legitimate considering that’s the card these offenders play the moment it looks like they may be caught. But it also provides those hiding in plain sight, with the perfect cover they need. I do not believe, for one moment, Chapman is the only one involved. And one of the flags is their persecution of Tommy Robinson. They’re not just trying to prevent Tommy exposing their incompetence. They’re hiding something. And someone. And a great deal of it. But of course, publicly slandering Tommy as Islamophobic & racist. Diminishes his credibility, whilst it justifies them trying to silence him. It doesn’t look like they’re trying to hide anything. He’s simply a racist thug they insist. Again, providing them with yet another perfect cover. But more people know about this than people realise. And let us not forget how the establishment & the media covered up the crimes of pedophiles like Jimmy Saville. Making them seasoned veterans of cover-ups & deceit. Let’s also not forget these girls were from the working-classes. The underprivileged. From a demographic for which the establishment, along with police & media have nothing but contempt. They were simply expendable. Their lives were considered cheap. Which is why when that little girl, her mum & sister were killed in that house fire started by one of her abusers & traffickers. Little to nothing happened to him. Then there’s the case of another little girl ending up in Kebab meat. Still, nothing was meaningful was done. This is England we’re talking about. Not some third-world nation. The home nation of Scotland Yard. Yet, it continued. Just because people were afraid of being called racists? Hardly.

RT is doing a good job for example exposing the risks to the environment of glyphosate weedkiller to the environment. We need free speech in all it’s forms without qualification we need a Fox news UK the BBC is corrupted probaly by peadophiles.

In other words, the UK government was very happy to let innocent girls be raped so as to appease Muslims and make them feel welcome. The innocent girls were willingly offered as sacrifice to the UK’s new masters.
This kept the ministers and government officials in power, as they wished, at the expense of innocents.
Paul says
Be fair now, be fair !
I mean you’ve barely mentioned the institutional incompetence of the police and how they don’t want any more work or at least work that doesn’t generate fines/income and positive clean-up figures.
After all revealing that they ignored working class slappers asking for help wouldn’t be good for their image would it.
But thats what they did. The police in the UK are oppressive and incompetent.

Since when are muslims a “race” ???
As far as islamophobe goes,I consider myself to be an islamoREALIST..
They specialize in MAXIMUM BARBARITY and cloak it under a so-called “religion” which is no more than a socieo-economic CULT of all things depraved and demonic using “lawfare” and ridicule in countries across the planet to further it’s satanic ends of world domination.
It is mind boggling to see so-called leaders,but who are in REALITY Judas Goats leading the citizens of their countries into death and destruction.
For Law Enforcement to take the side of EVIL against their own people is no less than Cowardice in the face of the enemy.
Looking at EU and UK it is no wonder that the USA had to save them from the Nazis in WW II..They’re ALL either spineless gutless quisling cowards or completely out of touch with reality.
