....we are never going to get on top of this until be acknowledge the elephant in the room. Stop it with the TROB cobras and deal with these savages.

i wonder why ethnicity was never reported, would the diversity is good for us supporters be offended and then start some legal process against the goverment etc.

[brian j john]

what does TROB cobras mean ??

[bobbinwales]

'the right on brigade' I think

[Peter Pedant]

trob - god knows there is no rule that the great Tora has to make sense - ever.

I am surprised after the trouble last time - the authorities did not raise their game. ( job losing stuff, not improving a substandard performance)

fender: "i wonder why ethnicity was never reported," - really? do you? I think you know!

[THECORBYLOON]

"None of the areas examined kept data on the ethnicity of victims and alleged perpetrators. The inclusion of ethnicity in problem profiles would enhance the effectiveness of prevention and detection by the police. Likewise, the local authorities and others would not automatically tailor their services to all victims in a culturally sensitive way. Many of the high-profile child sexual exploitation prosecutions have involved groups of men from minority ethnic communities. This has led to polarised debate about whether there is any link between ethnicity and child sexual exploitation networks. Poor or non-existent data collection makes it impossible to know whether any particular ethnic group is over-represented as perpetrators of child sexual exploitation by networks."

As we consider this "report" we are simultaneously being urged to demand the names and addresses, shoe size, previous job history, their children's names, and where they live of anyone who had a piece of cake a couple of years ago. The "influencers" who now demand this are the same creepy crew who have spent decades telling us that we are not allowed to know the identities or background of murderers, rapists, and terrorist. Particularly if they are likely to be one of the new and exciting, peace loving new additions to our way of life.

Crazy when they collect ethnicity data when you have almost any other contact with the public sector

[Gromit]

The Government have slashed council budgets, and the Pilice need to be reformed from bottom to to top because they are useless. - not fit for purpose.

[Atheist]

If we knew the ethnicity of groomers, what would we do?

[Togo]

//The Government have slashed council budgets,//

I thought that was what "the people" were demanding ... you know, black lives matter and defund the cops. Make your mind up.

[Togo]

//what would we do?//

We could tell the children to keep away from the perverts for a start.

[Gromit]

// we are being urged to demand the names and addresses, shoe size, previous job history, their children's names, and where they live of anyone who had a piece of cake a couple of years ago. //

The credentials of our *** Meister are common knowledge.

[Atheist]

Togo; how would the children know who are perverts?

[youngmafbog]

//If we knew the ethnicity of groomers, what would we do?//

For a start we would have data that ;may; assist in identifying the underlying problem. I doubt it would lean to proving any particular group being prone to grooming through nature but it may well highlight cultural differences and beliefs that need to be addressed. Of course it may be the case the Police treat certain groups with kid gloves and if that happens then those groups may well be more inclined to commit the crime.

As TTT says, to start we must recognise the elephant in the room.

[youngmafbog]

//how would the children know who are perverts?//

They wouldn't directly but they could be educated in what to look out for.

Its odd, you seem more concerned with picking holes than finding a way to keep children safe.

[Atheist]

What would you propose we do about white Englishmen who go abroad seeking native girls or boys for sexual purposes? Warn the local authorities to look out for white men; put them under surveillance; try to investigate their culture with a view to keeping them out of the country?

[Atheist]

YMB; what would the kids look out for? Brown skin? Turbans? moustaches? Beards?

[Atheist]

And don't lecture me on how to protect kids. I have two granddaughters. That is a cheap point.

[youngmafbog]

I am not lecturing you, its how you are coming across.

And you are still doing it with pathetic little jibes.

What do you suggest then, since things are very clearly mot working.
