This new enquiry into the corruption over the Lambeth child sex ring is to be conducted by the Police themselves. Isn't this a bit like asking the boy next to you to mark your homework ? Does anybody have much faith that the Police are capable of investigating corruption amongst their own ranks ?

I'm afraid to say I have no faith whatsoever.

What annoys me even more is that some idiot thinks the public will find this a good idea.

Someone is living on planet Zog, or smoking all the confiscated stuff.
I agree. I seem to remember the Met having a big bonfire a few years ago. They will never find the evidence. It stinks!!
Mistakes were made, but there's no evidence of any wrongdoing or coverups, on account of it all being covered up, besides which everyone involved is either dead or retired, so consequently no-one will be held to account. Lessons have been learned, and procedures have since been put into place to prevent this sort of thing happening again.

The enquiry will also make a list of recommendations, which are non-compulsory, ie pointless.

There. I've just summarised the results, which in theory should save huge amounts of time and expense, but won't.
no faith whatsoever .
not a lot, but what's the alternative? There's clearly not a single person in the British establishment independent of the British establishment, as we've seen Theresa May demonstrate. But NZ hasn't got an infinite number of judges it can parachute in to carry out British inquiries.

this has neva led to any negligent deaths as far as I can remember

Police investigation the Police doesnt fill me with joy -altho Retrocop will probably insist that it should. He will almost certainly say that there is no one better to do it.

what do people think about gving them all immunity from suit ?
Maybe they should get the Portuguese Police in then?

Ludwig....I may have misread you earlier this afternoon, and if I have, I apologise.

But there is indeed evidence of widespread corruption, lots of it, which is what last nights Newsnight was all about. Plenty of evidence, that needs to be investigated in a manner that satisfies us that this is being taken seriously. I have yet to see Teresa reaction to last nights program, but something positive from her would be encouraging.

Chilli.....Not terribly difficult really ..... Just get someone independent to investigate this corruption, other than any of the guards themselves !
Ive got my own axe to grind re: police investigating police. This is obviously nowhere near what victims of child sex abuse victims go through but the 'police investigating the police' scenario is the same. I once reported a police officer for assault against myself after he nearly broke my wrist. Photographes of my injuries were taken etc and then I had a visit from someone to take a statement. he more of less said forget it as it wouldnt go anywhere. I was young at the time and dropped it. Wished Id pursued it now to see where it would have gone.
As I said, nowhere near what these victims of scum have gone through with police cover ups but I wouldnt spit on the police if they were on fire.

A sad story Nailit.
on the news, our esteemed home secretary was asked directly if those who gave evidence would be subject to prosecution under the official secrets act; she said "I would hope not" which i'm guessing is officialspeak for "yes, they will".

so there will be no evidence. case closed.

Sadly, this sort of criminal activity is present in all facets of society, just to a lesser (or greater) degree in certain professions. The Marc Dutroux case proved that.
Mushroom, //she said "I would hope not" which i'm guessing is officialspeak for "yes, they will".//

How do you work that out?
Do people really believe that the police are going to find themselves guilty of misconduct?
//How do you work that out? //

she was asked to guarantee no prosecutions. she didn't.
mikey, fazemos por muito bons policiais , especialmente em casos de sexo ....
