LMAO. No it wasn't. If anything it was too mild. Show me where I mentioned all Muslims? Painful slow deaths to all who kidnap innocent people, hold them in captivity for over a year and commit terrorist acts like these evil cowards. What's disgraceful is thinking that comment is in any way disgraceful and seemingly it sounds like you're defending them.

I didn't mention Muslims. You did. I was talking about the terrorist scum in the video clip.

Animalistic terrorist scum. Let's hope someone let's off a live grenade in the middle of them and they all get blown to bits.

Great to see pictures of the returned hostages looking relatively well given what they've been through. They need the others out as well but this is a good start.

People replying to me don't know the lore.

Hardly the worst crime in the world. I'm sure he won't get a custodial sentence.

Thunder foot has hated him for years. It's been something of a vendetta.

If true that is good news and I hope it comes to pass. I of course want Labour to succeed because I want Britain to succeed.

Cheers for the response. What I would want to happen now is for the recommendations of the wider review to be implemented as soon as feasibly possible, then at the same time we can have an enquiry about this specific subset of child sexual abuse which seems quite specific and separate from the wider issue. If they're going to wait to implement anything before a wider enquiry then I agree that's stupid and there would be no need to. I can't see how further recommendations about the specifics of this issue would be likely to contradict what has already been implemented and where it may emphasise what has already been recommended, there is no harm in getting that implementation process underway. It's genuinely not an anti Muslim thing, I didn't pay a lot of attention to the specifics of this and I actually felt quite sick reading this a few weeks ago and understanding the extent of it. There's been a multitude of failings but there's undeniably a specific cultural issue here that has been largely buried and pushed away for fear of racism and actually this very real injustice is likely to make the problem of racism a lot worse if it isn't addressed. You would expect that reasonable people from the same communities would be equally disgusted by this and want to root it out from their societies. I'm sure that the average Pakistani Muslim has no desire to be associated with filth like this.

How many of the recommendations from the previous child sex enquiry (which had very little to do with rape gangs) focused on the specific issues from so called grooming gangs? Things like the networks of largely Pakistani heritage men passing victims around, the racial abuse the girls suffered which gives an insight into the motivations for the attacks, the nervousness police had about being seen as racist so that nothing was done, the way the girls were dismissed as slags or similar by police chiefs and those in authority? The way that councils were being run with block voting to ensure cover ups continued and the way that some communities closed ranks to protect their own? How many of the existing recommendations address these issues to the extent that we can have confidence that something on this scale cannot happen again?

That consideration is what has caused half the problems in the first place. Now that those in charge has admitted that there is an issue with rape gangs of Pakistani Heritage, there has to be an investigation that establishes the extent of the problem, the cultural issues that have led to this problem, how much of the problem has been fuelled by animus towards females of another race etc etc. We need an unvarnished and unbiased investigation or it fails the victims and potentially creates future victims. Having an investigation of this type whilst implementing the recommendations of the broader investigation regarding child sexual abuse should not be difficult to do. It should cause no delay at all. Regarding blame, it's more about accountability. There are names of council members and politicians who turned a blind eye and have simply moved elsewhere with promotions or with nothing attached to them. Rather like the Post Office, a full enquiry will partly be about holding these people accountable and getting some justice for the victims where many guilty parties have still not been brought to justice.

It needs both clearly to ensure it's very unlikely to happen again.

Because the only investigation so far has been about child sexual abuse in general, not touching on gang related sexual abuse, not mentioning anything about cultural issues that has contributed to this and there's little confidence that this type of abuse will be eradicated if it isn't fully investigated. The home secretary has now said there is a problem with Pakistani heritage grooming gangs. This hasn't been investigated before. The recommendations from previous broader enquiries need to be implemented alongside a focused enquiry, not least because many of the people involved are still in positions of power and there are fears that this sort of thing is continuing.

The tories were wrong not to have an enquiry. That can't be changed now, the people in power now need one. When I posted the shocking details the other week which I'd heard for the first time, some people were saying it was unnecessary and insinuating that I was racist for having done so. It seems that Labour have now bowed to the pressure to some extent and started a process to hopefully get some sort of justice for these people and to prevent further victims. If nothing else, for the first time a Labour home secretary has used the words Pakistani heritage grooming gangs which proves they exist and suggests they are actually something distinct and not a far right conspiracy theory.

Hear that @sadoldgit? I'm a lefty moron.

When you have tdmickey3 indirectly defending me you know he's bad. Guided Missile the great unifier.

I know it's confusing for you but he's calling you a wanker.

Suggesting that this deal has nothing to do with the fact that Trump is going to be president is disengenuous in the extreme. Of course it has to do with him.

John Misselbrook makes me want to support Kamala Harris.

It's great news. We wouldn't have these results if Trump hadn't won the election.

It's a few years ago but I have the PMs from the time when he was requesting personal details. Really didn't like people looking into his personal details and what he did for a job.

He threatened to sue someone on here as well.

So competent that you are calling for the removal of his Chancellor after six months in charge. Is that a sign of competence?

No blacks. Some won't be happy. Pretty good hosts from my point of view.

In other hilarious news. Starmer is getting desperate.
