Q.. What do Grenville Janner and Victor Montagu have in common???????

A... http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/may/15/to...

Yet again the "old boy network" is proving to be the little boy network.

The dirty noncey bastids.
'The decision by Sir Norman Skelhorn QC meant Montagu never stood trial and his paedophile activities were never exposed.'

'Skelhorn also ruled out a prosecution of the Liberal MP Cyril Smith in 1970 for indecent assaults on children after a police file was sent to him from the Lancashire constabulary.'

This Skelhorn sounds like such a helpful chap, oh look he's a Sir how uncanny.

Skelhorn was a pupil at Shrewsbury School.
A place well known for upper class bumming.

Montagu lived in Dorset. Savile had a property in Dorset.
Hmmmm.

He would have invited his father and brothers over?

My wife and I watched the first couple of episodes of House of Cards, the quite revolutionary TV series of the 90s.

There was a scene in it where a backbencher who had committed 'an indiscretion' was hauled before the chief whip and, in effect, told that from now on he would have no opinions other than those he was told to have. There was a comment at the end, after the chap left, where the whip says, in effect, that the bloke is a waste of space. The implication is that it was all too easy, but there was no suggestion of him being outed from the party, despite being useless. He was now a government stooge.

The indiscretion was cruising for a prostitute although, as this was disclosed my wife looked at me and said 'This is how it happened', it, being of course, MPs who were known to have abused children.

The series was remarkable in that it started, almost to the week, at the time of Thatcher's rejection by the party. And there was Major, a thoroughly honest and straightforward chap being attacked by all sides of the party.

I have to confess that my view of Major was tainted by the series. It was only later that I realised just how good a job he did despite his party.

Expenses get a mention. It would have been nice if a Guardian reporter had come into the whip's office and confronted him with what they had discovered only to be threated that should they print it, the government would bring in restrictive legislation against the press to stop such things in the future.

I know I shouldn't and yes, I accept it's with hindsight but now and again, I go back to Page 1 of this thread and start reading the first few dozen posts.

Quite remarkable.

Yes, it is quite remarkable that anyone bothers to do that

8 years they say.
Plenty of time for people to get cancer or dementia then.

The numbers in that article are absolutely terrifying, I genuinely despair for the human race when I read stuff like that.

I've only had two long term relationships in my life and both partners were abused as children by an Uncle. One reported it and he went to prison (not for very long) and the other family swept it under the carpet.
