Will Sir Cliff 'Kitty' Richard finally be outed? What about several senior politicians...?
I very much doubt it but the more it's reported on the better. |

Cliff Richard probably won't be discussed as his case is to be re_iewed by the CPS over the next few days. |

Pretty sure the authorities know all about him and many others - just not willing to do anything about it.
Jimmy Saville was the tip of the iceberg! |

.....or just possibly, there was no VIP paedophile ring or certainly not one as extensive as the media (and particularly social media) has led us to believe.
The danger is that where once celebrity figures like Saville were allowed free reign now we as a society are suspicious of anyone who is/was just a little "different"- unmarried, homosexual, eccentric etc....I wouldn't be surprised if there is little or no actual evidence and the usual conspiracy theorists have simply managed to tap into a collective neurosis about "establishment" to spin their horror stories.
Hope I'm right |

thing is do you not think that if the authorities 'know all about him' that they may have acted upon what they 'know'..
everybody and that includes you and I have the right not to be proven guilty by internet gossip yes..?

A sense of perspective is a good thing. Too many have been too quick to pass judgement. Sadly people don't learn from history - the witch hunt we have seen recently is reminiscent of the Cleveland sex scandal, the Sam Sheppard case, even the Salem witch trials. All cases where public hysteria led to massive miscarriages. People, please learn |

Just don't name suspects until they are convicted. |

The argument against that is where you have a serial offender. Sadly I think that idea leads to more miscarriages than anything. Too many are too keen to believe the worst. Like Ted Heath. Isn't he supposed to have been involved in the abuse and murder of kids in Jersey? I find it amazing that such wild claims are taken seriously - yet they are.
We need balanced and impartial policing - and that goes for all of us, not just the police force itself. After posting above, I remembered the McMartin case in America: a terrible case where a family running a nursery were suspected of child abuse en masse. It took years to clear their names. The police had blinkers on and prejudged them. Just as ours did with Stefan Kisko. And so many others. I do agree that not naming suspects prior to conviction - save for extreme cases - is a step in the right direction |

That is the argument in favour of naming suspects. Our justice system is based on the principle of innocent until proven guilty. Naming a suspect before a trial is a terrible travesty of this. Their reputation will be tarnished forever.
I am all for the sympathetic treatment of potential victims but I simply cannot understand why the police continue to name potential abusers in the hope that they will find it easier to prosecute. It is their job to find evidence without causing infinite damage. They have as much duty to the accused as the accuser. |

its a dilemma but many of the victims of historical sexual abuse certainly in Stuart Hall's case and maybe Max Clifford only came forward when it became public they were under investigation..
and possibly without their evidence those 2 may have walked free..?
having said that i also see that naming someone who then is found innocent will for those people have a further effect upon them..
given the historical cover ups and the still ongoing investigations into other 'investigations' in the past i cant see that the authorities will be minded to change how they are currently doing things.. |

Some people are so cynical.
So a Labour minister, in conjunction with a Labour councillor, conspired to fabricate some dirt on the Tory party months before an election "for a joke"? Next you'll be trying to tell me Gordon Brown tried the same trick with his pet attack-dogs... oh wait, he did that too
That's the sad part of socialism, they'd be far more likely to win the political argument if they simply stuck to facts and stopped all this nonsense. It just turns off the very people they need to win over.

It certainly looks like Tom Watson has been either duped by some of the victims that panorama investigated or he has been malicious in using what he thought he knew..
his conduct over Leon Brittan has been shoddy indeed..
having said that dirty tricks in politics is not something only carried out by one side.. |

Sorry. No. AFTER the initial conviction, other victims could have come forward, leading to other convictions.
There is no excuse for naming suspects before a conviction. |
