Thread: O/T just a town full of *****s

    O/T just a town full of *****s

    Are we (thankfully) losing this dubious accolade?

    https://theworldnews.net/gb-news/nin...grooming-trial

    No mention of this by the way on the BBC website, they seem to be ignoring it.

    It's the scale of the abuse in Rham that sets it apart......1400 victims

    I still can't comprehend how this happened to 1400 different children.

    yes I thought the figure may have gone up.

    ....and the public still votes in the negligent council with no second thoughts or challenge.
    Equally as astonishing as what happened to those poor 1600 young people

    Victims of "harmless" political correctness.

    Just a minute.

    These replies are in the past tense. Is there an assumption here that the grooming and rapes carried out by Asian men in Rotherham has been completely eliminated?

    I doubt it.

    Don't think we'll ever lose the accolade Grist, it just means that other football teams have another team to sing our song to.......Until one of their towns/cities gets caught out for the same offence.

    No Flour. Nobody at all has claimed that there was more grooming in Rotherham than in any other large town/city. The scandal in Rotherham was that the authorities were aware of it and turned a blind eye for fear of creating racial/social tensions.

    Fair point Grist.
    With the Council still in power I wouldn't be surprised that they are as inept today as they were then.
    Any organisation that needs significant, prolonged intervention from the Goverment isn't fit to manage local affairs
