Canary...thanks for your support at 01:34.
I have mentioned Cyril Smith many times on here and Simon Danzcuk's illuminating book. Quite what point Retro is trying to make here is unclear. The fact that Smith was a Labour politician and then became a Liberal one has no relevance whatsoever when it comes to his dreadful abusing or the fact that an investigation was discontinued by MI5.
The reason that MI5 stepped in to stymie the investigation was that if a prosecution did go ahead, he would spill the beans on many others involved in his preferred method of sexual gratification. Some of those "others" were also involved in what went on at the Elm Guest House, and some are still alive. In other words, Smith knew where the bodies were buried. Bearing in mind this new investigation around Dolphin Square, that may literally true !
Retro has taken every opportunity to make personal attacks and slurs on me for the past few days. I am not sure what his motive is but it is now turning into behaviour more suited to a troll. As a result, I will no longer engage in debate with him, on this subject or any other. Life is too short to waste any more time with characters like him. He won't like this of course, but I couldn't care less. But if he continues to spread his nasty innuendo, I shall report him.
Sandy...its true that some of the abusers may not still be alive but lots of them are still with us. I am prevented from naming names on this public forum, but a little research brings pays great dividends.
Ladybirder...you are absolutely right. The victims needs some kind of resolution. You are not being naive at all, just optimistic that this issue is investigated thoroughly, as we should all be on here.
