"A serving Rotherham councillor suggested teenage victims were to blame for their own exploitation because their 'modern dress' and make-up 'fooled' Asian men.

According to the report, the unnamed councillor - who still sits on Rotherham Council - said the girls tricked their abusers into thinking they were adults by 'the way they make up"

That is utterly, utterly staggering.
I agree but then again this is a council who thought they were the law and swept it under the carpet.

Perhaps if it were his daughter being abused he might have a slightly different opinion yes

I think Vaz needs to realise he's either against peados or he's with them.

I think if he continues to poke his oar in then he needs investigating as a potential nonce as no decent human with normal morals would be on the side of vile perverts unless its to save their own ass

In fact, let's look into everyone who helped cover things up.

So what? It's a bunch of middle aged white people on the whole with a bunch of different political affiliations. And this has been going on for years regardless of who has been at the top - I imagine few of the people on that page have been there for the seventeen years in question.

The problem is not the ethnicity or politics of he councillors ... it's that they are a bunch of shysters with no interest other than looking after themselves.

So they get sent on these courses as they've been talent spotted and told that they're the chosen ones, get taught to lead beyond authority and then when not everyone falls under their spell they deny the truth and bully them.


The BBC Monkey Dust New Truth sketch could have been about Common Purpose?

Perhaps they should bar taxi drivers from being Councillors?

So when they've figured out what's going on with the child grooming, raping and pimping taxi drivers, they could perhaps learn lessons and the same countermeasures deployed across all towns, or just towns and cities where this problem is prevalent?

A Top Gear challenge could be to see how many schoolgirls you can get in a minicab, though that idea could have been inspired from their truck driving challenge.

I do wonder if the councillors have been managed from within the non-elected part of the organisation.

How hard would it have been for those in the know to mislead the elected officials and convinc them that there was nothing to worry about?

Yep, I do indeed. I was answering an earlier post that I didn't quote as well as he one I did. The point stands .... it's councillors caring about sod all other than themselves.

Do they get to keep their pension entitlements?

How long before they creep back in on a consultancy basis, or get another high paying gig with another LA

Resignation is not good enough they should be sacked.

They are the politicians aren't they? Unpaid and no pension provision?
