HAMMERING THE POINT HOME…

Following in from yesterday’s post about those Pakistani Muslims convicted on grotesque sex crimes against young white girls, I tuned in to Today this morning to see how the BBC would develop this story. It was exactly as feared. They wheeled on the Deputy Children’s Commissioner Sue Berelowitz who explained that the grooming of young girls for sex is a crime going on in every community, not just the Asian community. (7.09am) She was permitted to parrot the official line that this organised grooming of young white girls happens in all faith groups and all ethnicities and it is totally wrong to think this is just an “Asian” or, heaven forbid, Muslim male problem, Phew – that’s alright then. I’m just wondering why the BBC as our State broadcaster seems to spend little time reporting on gangs of marauding Methodists of packs of rampant Presbyterians committing similar vile crimes. The BBC has a dog on this fight – it is out to PROVE that Muslim men do not have a problem here and do no constitute a threat to our society. They will do this despite the evidence that points otherwise.

  1. I reposted this with link and it was picked up on by a member of the controlled opposition here in Australia- but still, extra publicity even from powder puff “conservative” journalists is good. More exposure the better.

    Funny you should mention that, because the BBC is quite happy to collude with the States of Jersey in its attempts to sweep decades of physical, sexual and emotional abuse of children in care by its establishment – many of them prominent members of the Methodist Church, another the leader of the local Jewish community. Wonder why…

      As Ed West rightly points out in the DT today, the liberal left are jumping through hoops to show that this vile crime is not a race issue when every indication is the opposite.
      He goes on to say “The BBC this morning went out of its way to deny there was a cultural element to this phenomenon”

      http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/edwest/100157036/why-liberals-turned-a-blind-eye-to-the-grooming-of-girls/

      Anne Cryer, a Labour MP, has highlighted this and drawn attention to the paralysis that gripped police and social workers in coming to terms with the racial nature of the criminal activity taking place. It now transpires that up to 50 young white girls may have been used and abused by Pakistani males.
      The police and social workers were gripped by a fear of being accused of ‘racial prejudice’. Arch exponents of wielding such accusations are members of the BBC

    The repulsive BBC is using this as another attempt to portray poor Islam as the eternal victim. What a tragedy it would be if somebody ended up criticising the Islamic ideology as a result of this mass prolonged rape of underage girls! It’s all the latte sipping faux liberals at the BBC care about.

    It’s their fault stuff like this happens as the police are too scared to act in case the BBC organise a withhunt against them. Let us not forget that Labour and Lib Dem councillors in the area acted as character witnesses for these beasts!

      Quite!…and where are the feminists?

      One single police officer in Toronto made a foolish and clumsy remark wherein he suggested that to remain safe, “women should avoid dressing like sluts”, which prompted a series of so-called ‘slutwalks’ in cities across the world.

      Perhaps they could start to address the very REAL and current threats to women around the world, or in this case young girls, rather than confronting a convenient straw man with affected outrage and a deeply contrived protest movement.

      In our morally inverted world, it appears that words are now considered to be a much greater cause of harm to individuals than mere actions, but these are real victims, with wounds much more serious than the offended sensibilities of the permanently indignant. It’s time to take aim at the genuine targets, however awkward that might be for some.

Looks like the Liverpool case could be the tip of the iceberg, then. The police and BBC (by giving airtime to the likes of Vaz) are placing these scum beyond criticism and making them unaccountable for their crimes in case it sparks ‘racial violence’. What a weak, mealy-mouthed, appeasing nation we have become. And the sooner Vaz wakes up to the fact that his ridiculous excuses for these people only oils the wheels of the BNP recruiting machine, the better.

    Churchill on Hilter’s ‘Mein Kampf’……”the new Koran of faith and war: turgid, verbose, shapeless, but pregnant with its message.”

    ‘Pakistani’, ‘Asian’….how about the truth ‘Muslim’….because…. “They think (are told to think)that white teenage girls are worthless and can be abused without a second thought; it is this sort of behaviour that is bringing shame on our community.”
    That was said by Mohammed Shafiq. Humphrys told us Shafiq was appalled by the crimes ‘and he was a Muslim’…inferring exactly where the problem lies.

    What do all these people implicated in such crimes have in common, which sort of country do they originate from?……Martin Narey, chief executive of Barnardo’s, said: “I certainly don’t think it’s just a Pakistani thing. My staff would say there is an over-representation of people from ethnic minority groups among perpetrators – Afghans, people from Arabic nations, Pakistanis. But it’s not just one nation.”
    He called for more research and said: “I don’t think this is so much about targeting white girls – because there black girls are also victims – it’s about targeting vulnerable, isolated girls.’

    Indeed even some ‘Asian’ girls might be groomed…however they are not Muslim Asian.

    If you’re not Muslim you’re worthless.

    Narey when in the Prison service banned his officers from being a member of the BNP.

    I’ll bet he welcomed Muslims with open arms.

    ‘It must now be obvious that the objective of the Islamic jihad is to eliminate the rule of an un-Islamic system, and establish in its place an Islamic system of state rule. Islam does not intend to confine his rule to a single state or a hand full of countries. The aim of Islam is to bring about a universal revolution. Although in the initial stages, it is incumbent upon members of the party of Islam to carry out a revolution in the state system of the countries to which they belong; their ultimate objective is none other than world revolution.’
    (Jihad Fi Sabillilah: Jihad in Islam by Sayyid Abul Ala Mawdudi “– Chapter 3, Pg 10)

    Gina Khan is a British Muslim woman who lives in Birmingham and campaigns against extremism….
    ‘The area has been Islamised. Mosques, mini-mosques and madrasas rise up on almost every street corner, but there is nothing for the youth. Drugs and crime has made the area unsafe for young girls. Social services and the police know what is going on.
    I have witnessed anti-west and anti-Jew posters and leaflets appear in shops run by young bearded Muslims. I watched the Islamists mobilise the Muslim community right under my nose. Before 9/11 the time I could not name it, but I knew something was not right, but it was being done in the name of Islam.’

    Churchill:
    “But the Mahommedan religion increases, instead of lessening, the fury of intolerance. It was originally propagated by the sword, and ever since, its votaries have been subject, above the people of all other creeds, to this form of madness.”

    The Devil’s greatest trick was to convince people he didn’t exist.

    1899. Entitled “The River War: An Account of the Reconquest of Sudan”, Churchill wrote on pages 248-250 of the second volume: “”How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property – either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. “Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to die. But the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytising faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science – the science against which it had vainly struggled – the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.”

    She repeated her ‘findings’ so many times it’s pretty obvious she’s pushing an agenda which dovetails nicely with IN-BBC’s defence of all things Islam. No room for former Labour MP Ann Cryer to be interviewed, of course, who has been campaigning to raise awareness of and have something done about this issue for several years. As for exploring a possible link between unhappy arranged marriages and grooming of underage white girls – don’t even go there. Then to put the icing on the BBC denial cake, I read of a girl victim quoting one of the guilty men as saying ‘You white people train them in sex and drinking so when they come to us they are fully trained’. Nothing racist in that, not worth mentioning, nah, move along. As for PC (not Police Constable, the other one) Plod’s performance in this whole sickening case, they’re just the BBC in uniform.

    No accusations of BBC bias here but I hadn’t realised, before hearing Vaz on Today this morning, that this is all the fault of the BNP: Vaz fell short of accusing the BNP of perpetrating the rape etc itself but, apparently, it is guilty of everything else (and thus the actual perps are, perforce, victims of a greater crime than rape ie racism). Apparently “only” 30+ % of this type of crime (according to Vaz) is perpetrated by “Asians” while whites are guilty of about 3/4% more: in Vaz-world it’s obviously a “white” crime. Even Humphrys was moved to remark that this was disproportionate to the “Asian” population in the UK.
    In the same discussion, Neary trod on eggs but still managed to admit that the perps of this type of crime were disproportionately “Asian” but (thank God – or Mohammed), even so, these crimes in general and this one in particular (ie Asians targetting white girls) were not “racist” – so at least that bit of the criminality can be swept under the carpet.
    This has been a difficult couple of days for the BBC but I think we can be confident that, what with the Queen’s Speech, the fall-out from the French and Greek elections and Boris “scraping” home, this will be old – and ignored – news by Friday.

      The oleaginous Keith Vaz was bad enough today to put anyone off their breakfast. But maybe he did protest too much – his repeated attacks on the BNP could well help recruit members for them.

      What was really appalling was that Humphrys and the BBC generally fail to do proper research – fail to press Vaz and others on the clear fact that there has been a stream of cases involving MUSLIMS – mostly PAKISTANI born or bred. People see these cases being reported on TV and in the press, they see the mugshots of the evil perpetrators of trafficking of large numbers of underage girls – mostly white. There is a clear pattern. And the pattern will continue as more cases are brought to prosecution.

      So who do they believe – Vaz and the BBC, or their lying eyes ? Certainly in the districts most affected, people know damn well what the true picture is.

    To the point: the BBC’s coverage was the opposite of journalism. Instead of informing the public, they’re seeking to bamboozle the public: pay no attention to the jihadist behind the curtain.

    The elephant in the room here is what would happen if the truth, like the proverbial genie, really did come out of the bottle? There is already a polarisation of communities developing in this country and the first to see it were the poorer folks in our inner cities. They have been ignored and overrun and the result has been the growth of so called far right organisations and web sites.

    Is the situation getting better? No of course it is not and this feeling of being oppressed is spreading. You will now go to prison for having a drunken rant about it on a train, teenagers are locked up for offensive tweets about footballers. The English football captain is going on trial for a momentary lapse in concentration and in the heat of the moment mentioning the colour of his opponent. You are vilified for organising groups to discuss it, let alone march about it. I would not be surprised if the hard left and Muslim Jihadists do not now start attacking this site. Banging on about the BBC is one thing but attacking the people of peace just because they are paedophiles is setting fire to the blue touch paper.

    The BBC and most of the other media, the police and yes the government are fighting a tsunami of truth that is being held in presently under the guise of racism and I fear that it will be done much more forcibly in the very near future as the denial of truth continues. It was of course predicted in Birmingham on April 20 1968 and I see that date as the start of the oppression we are seeing now. The first casualty in a war is truth. The second is lives.

The BBC has shifted the narrative, as is traditional with the MSM when a muslim kills anyone, towards “fears over far right extremist backlash”, thus immediately painting the muslims as the victims. In this case, the BBC is all over these “far right extremists” who were protesting outside the court, saying they were seeking to “capitalsie” on antui muslim sentiment etc. What bullshit. . I also note the police desperately scrabbling around and the uselss chief constable claiming he was “currently investigating a number of grooming gangs who are all white”. Yeah right.

Are you claiming Hindus, Sikhs, Quakers, Chinese, Greeks, Poles, Germans, French etc.living here are also carrying out these crimes, please back up that accusation with figures’
    Keith Vaz proudly informed listeners that he had not been told of any such goings on in his City of Leicester, which he then informed all those people who were born and bred there before the 1970s is Britain’s first Asian City, the only Asian city in Europe and the only one outside of the sub-continent.
    The first of many he no doubt hopes. To label a City or town in Britain as being Asian is breathtaking arrogance, clearly indicating he thinks English culture and way of life should be subservient to the, he claimed, 51% of the population who are Asian.

They have banged off a load of statistics about only so many % being from an ethnic background, my first question to the BBc will probably be are the percentages quoted baselined in respect of the muslims being 4-5% of the population or less. Also I note despite reporting the victims had been driven around to different towns and Counties no mention of how many more “men”are involved. Does this tie in with the “asians” arrested in Oxford?

      Dave Guest, the chief reporter on ‘North West Tonight’, gave a decent enough account of the crimes and the court case once his report got going but he got off to a strange start by talking at length about problems caused by “far-right groups”, including the BNP, and did so again when he returned at the end of the programme.

      The really dodgy report though on ‘North West Tonight’ was by a BBC reporter called Peter Marshall (not the one from ‘Newsnight’). He was clearly given the task of defusing the race angle.

      He began by himself stressing that the police were stressing that the victims weren’t targeted because they were white.

      Then it was straight back to the far-right again, whose protests he equated with the crimes of the rape gang:

      “An ugly crime brought ugly protests, both outside the court in Liverpool and on the streets of Haywood.”

      We then heard from a “critic” of the far-Right, blogger Majed Iqbal, who said that “race really isn’t an issue.”

      “Ask the police if they believe race is important in this case and the answer is straight”, continued the BBC reporter. A Greater Manchester assistant chief constable then appeared to say no, race isn’t an issue.

      The CEOP assessment of 753 offenders whose ethnicity was known showed than 46% were ‘Asian’. The “data is too inconsistent to draw any national conclusions,” said CEOP.

      Then it was on to a nice imam who says more openness is needed, whatever the size of the problem, as a few “individuals” are doing things that “contradict Islamic values and contradict British law” and they aren’t “reflective of our faith nor of the community.”

      The BNP were then indirectly quoted by the reporter, talking about political correctness, and then a short clip of Jack Straw was played talking about “easy meat”, but Peter Marshall then stopped quoting others and gave us the official BBC view straight out:

      “Child exploitation happens in ALL communities and ALL communities need to tackle it”.

      It was then straight back to the nice imam to say that everyone should be united.

      Just before handing back to the studio, Peter Marshall quoted the Ramadan Foundation saying the guilty verdicts are welcome.

      That sort of report is what I’d expect from ‘North West Tonight’.

      Another report on grooming came later that steered clear of any mention of a race/religious angle.

        The far right gives problems to the liberal elite in that the carefully concocted consensus of their ravings is shown up for the fatuous fiction that it always was.
        Yet way too much time, grants, seminars, training and salaried charities and legal monkeys has been spent on these lies for them to vacate the ground and get honest.
        Orwell told us about words like “care” and ” nationality” that the State hollows out by way of meaning.
        This case is at the fault line of paedophilia,Islam as practiced by Pakistani elders and zealots-and the council and government “care system” that provided the spit roast chickens so late into the night.
        No wonder the likes of the jackfaced boot above…Vaz with as much creaming and cheating activity as any other oiled MP…and Narey(serial do-gooder aboard the rehabilitation gravy train) were called into the BBC to play a safe bat to hostile Pakistani bowling…usual sandbags of privilege with their brains long set in aspic.
        As if Vaz could ever speak for Islam…serial greaser since the 70s.

    The BBC are also implicit in the proliferation of these crimes because they tried to get a certain unpalatable messenger of a proscribed political party jailed for highlighting similar cases several years ago in a private meeting.

    In a healthy society, that wasn’t riddled with liberal self-hate, a self-respecting journalist would have investigated whether those accusations were true or not. But not the BBC, they thought it more important to play political smoke and mirrors than securing the welfare of these vulnerable girls.

    Picking up from the points made by a couple of other posters here, I can say that the coverage of this issue on the BBC has struck me as an all out attempt at turning the story on its head. The BBC have rushed to air a series of politicians from the left and quangocrats (sorry, by quangocrats I mean of course more politicians from the left). Item number one on the BBC agenda has been to put out the message that is not representative behaviour. Let’s face it the Beeb and their cohorts have had plenty of time to set their ducks in a row for this. Time during which this story has been verboten.

    It all brings to mind an odd conversation which I once had with a lefty mate of mine who works fairly high up in a local authority. This local authority contains within its boundaries a potential terrorist prime target (which will have to remain nameless). Now I know this guy can be a somewhat on message leftwinger but we are friends from way back so when I asked out of curiosity ‘What special arrangements and training have you been involved in to do with terrorism?’, I thought I would get some insights into the police and security forces counter measures.
    Oh no, no, no.
    My mate wasn’t being evasive, perhaps he simply mistook me for a fellow lefty when he replied ‘Oh we have worked with the minority community to allay their fears of reprisals should anything happen’.
    And right there you have the Beeb attitude and outlook on this.
    Within a day or two – assuming no further clutch of convictions cannot avoid publicity – the Beeb will bury this episode deeper in their collective non-memory than NHS-killer Harold Shipman.

      Opening excerpt from Ed West’s article here:

      “To understand how a modern liberal will come down on any complicated issue, simply look for a victim. It’s been the case in every major battle of the last 50 years, and it’s an almost infallible guide to Leftist thinking.

      “The conviction yesterday of nine men in Rochdale on ‘grooming’ charges, a rather gentle word for the sexual abuse of children, is a classic example. Almost immediately the Guardian produced a comment piece vigorously playing down any racial element. Sunny Hundal made the same point, even while linking to a criminal justice report which seemed to suggest the opposite. The BBC this morning went out of its way to deny there was a cultural element to this phenomenon.

      “Yet if the overwhelming majority of perpetrators of a particular type of crime come from one ethnic group, we can say that this crime has a racial or cultural element; if the vast majority of their victims come from another group, definitely so. To deny this seems bizarre. “

    That sentence doesn’t really make any sense does it? You can’t protest about someone being in a particular ethnic group, even the BNP don’t’ expect someone to be able to change their ethnicity. I wasn’t there at the protests and I’m not paid a huge BBC salary but any sane person can see they were protesting about racism by the perpetrators and probably the racism and cover up by the authorities too. They were protesting about people’s motivations and actions, not their DNA.

    There’s the obvious context to all this: the unending Islamisation of England by the ‘multicultural ‘political class (inc INBBC); this continuing Islamisation is soon to include the influx of millions of Islamic Turks in England, campaigned for by the political class of Labour, Tories, Lib Dems, BBC, Guardian, etc, in line with the diktat from E.U Brussels on entry of 80 million Muslim Turks into E.U.

    We can see how the political class behave whe there are about 3 million Muslims here. Imagine how subservient and dhimmified it will behave when there are 6 million or 9 million Muslims here, as there soon will be, on demographic trends.

    In all of this The Times has reported fully and fairly for the past year. Total opposite to the BBC’s coverage.

    Tpday it has the whole front page and several pages inside giving very full detail – and full background, plus its lead editorial. As its headline says – a Day of Shame for Britain. The police and social services and childrens’ homes have failed so many of these very young and vulnerable girls, the politicians with only a couple of exceptions (both Labour, as it goes) have sidestepped the issues or helped in the cover-up, and the BBC has been well in the lead in denial of the roots of the problem.

    We now have a largely alien culture in our midst – with a lot of severe consequences. No-one asked us if we wanted all this, no-one takes any notice of rational and cool arguments against large-scale immigration of people from a peasant, tribal and reactionary society. And also, hardly any of the media – the only real exception is Andrew Gilligan – tries to report on the local political corruption we now face.

    What I found most stark in the Times’ reports is the attitude of the defendants – even after their conviction. There was NIL contrition – it was all the fault of the girls or of Britain.

    I just hope that very severe jail terms are handed out – as a lesson to the Muslim communities that they need to set their house in order. But when creeps like Keith Vaz are given the lead say – why should Muslims recognise that they are ALL becoming despised for the cultural behaviour they foster and tolerate inside their communities.?

    Have the BBC reported on why the police failed to investigate this yet? Have they reported on the Labour and Lib Dem councillors who gave character references to these “men from Rochdale”? Have they done anything other than try to desperately spin the entire thing into a criticism of anyone who opposes their ideas on the sacred ideology of Islam?

    Apologies for re-posting from another thread:
    If the UK approximate population proportions were 90% white 5% Asian, and 5% other (I assume black) , then on the percentages of known perpetrators, an “Asian” is about ten times more likely to be a raping paedophile than a white British person.
    It’s not a difficult calculation unless you can’t bring yourself to do it, because you believe it is your objective is to promote community cohesion.

    Yet the talking heads repeat that all sections of the community are found among the perpetrators. Technically true, but basically “all” is a dishonest interpretation designed to mislead the public. And no-one is being fooled.

    Another day, another contrast between the main evening news bulletins on BBC and ITV.

    ITV’s main angle was to take up Michael Gove’s concerns about whether the policy investigation into the paedophile gang had been “compromised by political correctness because the gang of criminals are of Pakistani and Afghan origin”.

    Penny Marshall’s ITV report said “there have been accusations that their victims…should have been helped sooner but that intervention was delayed because of concerns about appearing racist.”

    Former Labour MP Ann Cryer appeared, saying “It doesn’t help to be politically correct and not say anything, just in case you offend a community. You have to put the well-being of the most vulnerable members of any community first, whether it’s Asian girls or white girls.”

    The police deny that their inquiry was compromised by such concerns, Penny Marshall reported.

    Michael Gove came next, saying “I want to get at the facts and I don’t think that political correctness should get in the way…”

    Then a victim raped by “a group of Pakistani men” told her story and said the police were “useless.” Her mother was heard from too.

    As you can probably guess, that wasn’t the BBC’s angle.

    The BBC’s Chris Butler barely touched on this issue at all. Michael Gove’s concerns over political correctness were air-brushed out of the story. No Ann Cryer, of course, either. The whole report contained a lot of the usual BBC tiptoeing around the subject.

    Still, at least Chris Butler’s report featured Mr. Shafiq from the Ramadan Foundation saying “Out of the recent 77 convictions, 67 are Pakistani men, the victims are white, so clearly as a community we’ve got a problem” and interviewed a Pakistani lad who blamed the girls’ parents for not keeping them in at night, which would have given BBC viewers an insight into the way that sort of man thinks.

      I posted the following on Melanie’s article and I repeat it here;

      Melanie and other commentators have highlighted that this is more of Islamic problem than a race problem.

      Taking this further the grooming and rape of young white women is just part of an ideological conflict.

      Islamism like Christianity is a living religion and adherents live their beliefs based on religious teachings. The UK and greater part of Europe and North America are stable, successful cultures because the Christian culture became the unifying culture and formed the basis of our Constitution and legal systems. This banished the conflicting tribal cultures that had dominated this region for many centuries. Christianity has many qualities that make it a successful ideology because it incorporates forgiveness, charity, care of the disadvantaged and encourages and allows individuals to develop and evolve without inhibition within the community framework. Importantly it does not prescribe that all members of the community subscribe to Christianity to be part of the same society.

      Islam although derived through the same routes is more dogmatic in its interpretation of adherence and rules and one of the most fundamental differences is that only adherents of Islam are considered part of recognised society. So whilst non-adherents may live amongst Muslims they are regarded as non-entities within greater society and unlawful Islamic acts perpetrated against non adherents are not regarded as such.

      The rape and ritual humiliation of women has always been practiced in war and is a form of terrorism and a demonstration of superiority.

      These acts of gang rape and humiliation must be seen in the greater context of the ongoing campaign of terror being waged against the West. It is part and parcel of the war of terror and should not be seen in isolation but part of greater campaign of terror.

      The integration of the strict Muslim ideology within Judeo-Christian communities is questionable purely because of the distance between the 2 ideologies.

      So it is completely wrong to define this as an Asian problem because, as has been pointed out, not all Asians follow Islamic teachings. Many of the Asian religions (read ideologies) have similar beliefs of tolerance within them that make those communities able to integrate happily with a largely Judeo-Christian civilisation.

    This is from a Muslim, Amjad Khan, writing at ‘Harry’s Place’ in 2009….could have been written yesterday with the oily Vaz in mind:

    http://hurryupharry.org/2011/02/09/muhammad-shafiq-and-the-ramadhan-foundation/
    ‘Firstly, the fact that so many Muslim activist types are keen to deflect criticism of any kind that they, in turn, direct all attention towards the far-right. This happens in spite of the fact that they are completely oblivious to their own passive tolerance of extremists within Muslim circles, in the case of the Ramadhan Foundation hosting Hizb ut Tahrir. Secondly, many Muslims are so fearful of the media spotlight that any type of discussion which isn’t uncritically praising Muslims and Islam is interpreted as an attack. This is usually followed by all the usual stock responses being wheeled out, i.e. most Muslims abhor terrorism, we are so well integrated already, what about the far-right etc.
    The result of this dishonest and inaccurate rhetoric is that now we live in a society where mature debate about real issues is hampered at every turn. With liberals shouting ‘racist’ and Muslim activists shouting ‘don’t talk about us’ it is very difficult to make any progress. This in turn only aggravates existing tensions and allows problems to fester.
    As a Muslim who acknowledges the many serious issues that affect Muslim communities in the UK, I would much prefer sensible and responsible voices being sought out by journalists. I would also like to see the far-right being deprived of fodder. But I may be waiting a while yet.’

If only they had practised some kind of quota to include a token whitey the MSM would be cock a hoop (no pun intended).
    Right now I’m sure gangs all over the country will be rewriting their membership criteria to celebrate diversity.
    In fact why doen’t albeeb begin some diversity training for them?

    To be fair – the first item on Woman’s Hour today was Jenni Murray !!! interviewing a Muslim woman who argued that it is a very serious problem that the Muslim communities need to recognise and deal with. That the terrible thing is that many of the families of men involved in the sex trafficking of young girls would not see what is wrong with it – the girls are lesser creatures.

    But after several days – that is the first time have heard any interview talking real sense, facing the issues squarely – and using the M word.

      John, That was Yasmin Alibhai Brown, who has been writing and talking about this for years – and about the hidden violence, forced marriages and exploitation within Asian families and groups in the UK – and not just Muslim ones either. As has Ann Cryer.

    Whatever happened to journalistic curiosity? Where are the questions put to prominent female Islam apologists like Lauren Booth, Yvonne Ridley and Cherie Blair? Would they not have anything interesting to say? I’d love to watch them squirm, but seems it’s only for “spokesmen” to comment.
    Don’t any of these Muslim paedophile rapists have wives or girlfriends? What did they know about their menfolk’s nocturnal activities? Wasn’t going out at midnight for chips with a condom strange? Or were they grateful someone else – little white girls – were suffering their sexual appetites instead?
    Why is it left to police spokesmen to tell us what to think? What is the BBC College of Journalism fo,r apart from helping young socialists get a first job in the media?Journalism is clearly dead.

      It would be more interesting to hear from Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Jack Straw and their pals about their assiduous courting and special treatment of Muslim men, with special parties for them at Downing Street at Christmas (!) and special arrangements and links with the likes of the MCB.

        PS: Several of those vile paedo gang rapists had wives and indeed, children. It’s hard to contemplate the heartless evil of these lowlifes. It’s the denial and the trampling of every decency that we know and every responsibility that we recognise as adults.

        I would quite like to hear Tony Blair and Jack Straw apologise for what they have done to this country. I seem to recall Blair apologised for a lot of other things not of his doing.
