I think that's one of the weakest responses I've encountered in a long time. Inventing a meaningless poll that doesn't really show anything of relevance.

It's a common strategy when the argument has been lost, just ignore or sidetrack without addressing any of the actual points. Heaven forbid someone actually acknowledge any of issues raised.

I've acknowledged your issues. They are mainly your own experiences. Nothing concrete.

I note that you haven't answered the question about whether you knew if it was going on? Did you?

I knew girls were getting referred to as "p*ki sh*ggers".

I was trying to think back to any warning signs I was aware of at school. I remember one particular incident when I feel like in year 10 one of the girls had her older boyfriend come into the school grounds to collect her (Clifton Upper/ formerly Spurley Hey), its hard to remember in my head but I feel I was told he was about 26, and we were probably 14, it definitely seemed wrong to me, but also was just accepted. Looking back I'm surprised how brazen it was, but its also a long time ago.

I don't think anyone at all was aware of the scale. We can only be judged on our reaction to the things we did know about, which the evidence shows involved an awful lot of victim blaming.
