Why are you and nick trying to make child abuse an exercise of political point scoring or personal attack, other than against those who carried it out? This thread is pathetic.

As you brought it up, lets look at Islington:

From 1964 to 1998 Labour controlled the council, apart from a 3-year period of Conservative control from 1968 to 1971, and a brief period of SDP control between 1981 and 1982 following the defection of Labour councillors.

If you actually stopped and reflected before you posted,you will see my post (which appeared immediately before your own) is about a Labour politician, precisely because concerns over historic sexual abuse and failures to investigate adequately are far too important an issue to fall into the category of political point-scoring,whether by anyone (if it was the case) only attacking politicians because they hold certain views (which I doubt),or those attacking posters commenting on matters of great concern on the basis that they are not attacking politicians of opposite beliefs.

If Kermit,for example, is also being attacked by you as well,rather than knocking him for bringing to attention abuse in Islington,you should applaud him.

And if you look at the post a couple of posts above that one, you would note that I wrote that any mp found knowingly covering up paedophilia should serve time.

See if you can just find five minutes to read this link,a letter from Liz Davies,whom I think is the Islington social worker referred to in my earlier post this evening,to the Prime Minister in 2012,as pertinent now as then.Then,try looking into a mirror with a straight face and saying "what an irrelevance to have a pathetic thread about. What a waste of my time to take an interest in things like this or to be concerned by them.I will only take it seriously if posters can find something of equal concern about politicians of an opposite party too"
