//when there is a total cack up never forget the role of sheer incompetence...
...in theRotherham child abuse case was there no one in authority who said - "look we should be doing something these kids ! "//
No, "they" had decided that "we" should be doing nothing for the kids.
Obviously the poster is ignorant both of Andrew Norfolk and his 2014 investigation sponsored by the Times into the scandal.
A Rotherham whistle-blower gave Norfolk documents going back ten, repeat ten years, documenting in detail specific cases of rape and the gangs organising it. Among the documents were police records which included the names, "nicknames" and car registration numbers of participants. Also the addressess of the flats and fast-food joints where the girls were taken. Over one hundred men were named in these reports. This is not incompetence, it is policy
You might care to consider (or maybe ignore, depending on your moral and political sensitivities) the implications of a minority "community" of less than 10,000 people contributing one hundred rape suspects in a town of a quarter of a million.
