Newsnight Tonight

I don't doubt that politician etc don't get up to some seriously deviant ****, I just doubt the ability to keep it quiet. The example you cite was totally transparent and in reality probably fooled very few.

 

Most Germans really didn't want to go to war. At that point, why on earth would they? Austria and Czechoslovakia incorporated into the Reich. I know it seems very transparent in hindsight, but at the time, Hitler needed it for his own people. Poland had been agitating toward Germany for years before and cosying up with France, etc. Then you've got the issue of Danzig, isolated from the rest of Germany. The Poles weren't well-liked. Most Germans would have believed it; those who didn't would have kept quiet.

 

As I said in an earlier post, it isn't kept quiet. Stuff gets out, but as long as you can control the media people see, it really doesn't matter. There is a shocking lack of plurality in ownership of big media companies. That's only going to get worse as companies absorb each other in mergers. Doesn't matter how many honest journalists you might have; they don't have editorial control.

 

Aren't you also assuming that everyone involved in a conspiracy has to be in on the conspiracy. I keep making the point about hierarchy because it is perhaps the biggest enabler of any conspiracy; people following orders without question. Look at the coppers who changed their Hillsborough statements when the orders come down. It has been proven time and time again that major sh!t can be kept completely under wraps for decades. I'm not quite sure why you think the whole world would know about it, or would blab about it if they did.

I don't see the point of banding around names before anything has even been stated. Judging by the amount of names flying around, they are probably all invented from the murky depths of the internet.

 

And as for those getting into a political orgy over this, stop. Left wing, right wing has nothing to do with it. And whether it be Conservative, Labour, Lib Dem or whatever else... it is irrelevant and it doesn't make all people from that party a paedophile.

I also think those restaurants that advertise "children eat free (when accompanied by a paying adult)" are complicit in the whole paedophile culture that has developed in this country over the past couple of weeks. What if you don't have children? What are you supposed to do then? I think we all know what they want us to do, probably under the direct command from Gordon Brown.

Very funny, worthy of a 30 second giggle fit :)

Indeed. I also assume you don't realise that I am the person you were chatting to about it the other morning on Twitter ;)

 

No I didn't, DPS! I think you were one of the first people I added from here. I know better now :)

Seems like this has been an open secret for some years.

 

Newsnight video and report now on-line here.

 

More coverage here (names named).

One of the abused, Steve Meesham, is shown in the video asking David Cameron to make good on his sound-bite that victims of abuse need to be believed. Surely, this was under Newsnight editorial direction.

 

Clever, because Cameron could be forced to comment on the news report if public opinion gets behind it.

 

So why sit on this for so long? is the BBC, or probably the Newsnight editorial team, hanging some Tories out to dry in retribution for the Savile affair? I can't see that any new information has come to light. Perhaps it is as simple as reviewing all old allegations in the light of public uproar over Savile. Perhaps it was Tom Watson's question in the 'Commons last week?

That blog has some damning accusations on it. It's political dynamite. Tom Watson's question could have opened a massive can of worms. I would imagine the super-injunction lawyers think that Christmas has come a bit early this year.

Interesting to see some of our past/present politicians implicated in these horror stories

That blog also implicates Hampshire County Council.

I must admit the silence from Labour is deafening. Why are they not jumping up and down to demand an enquiry based on the Newsnight program? Unless of course they have something to hide themselves.....

 

 

A tad unfair. It was Labour's Tom Watson who asked the question in the House about the 'senior aide close to a former Prime Minister' and Labour has been calling for an independent enquiry following the Savile abuse allegations.

Any other subject if they could pin something on a Tory Millaband would have been on every news show this morning.
