CarrbridgeSaintee Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Maybe instead of cracking down on begging, they should create policies that reduce it? Those beggars they see no problem with stigmatising are human beings like the rest of us, and if given employment opportunities, housing and practical support could do just as well as anyone else. It’s not just a case of increasing benefits either, but having a system where every single person can have a sense of purpose and worth. Is it possible? Of course it is, but it involves radical ideas and thinking outside the box. I just don’t see it happening with our current crop of politicians, Tory or otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add the current Sir Kier's 'Tory-light' Labour Party to those sentiments and you're bang-on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 If that’s true WTF have these c***s been doing about it for the last 13 years? It’s a confession of dereliction of duty. Or on the other hand now that everything else has failed it’s time for the Tommy Yaxley Robinson Whateverhisnameis playbook before the election. Muslamic Ray Guns are back on the agenda. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am the most sandal wearing, bearded woke lefty I know.........but there's an kernel of truth in what she says (I know, I feel disgusted saying that). Asian gangs in Bradford etc have targeted vulnerable young white girls for some time in order to use them in the local sex trade. ......... however, white gangsters have been doing it for years which also needs acknowledgement. It's hardly confined to Pakistani gangs ! She is definitely playing to the gammons with this tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarHibee Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Tories 2023: "Dark skinned rape gangs are grooming young white girls." Labour 2023: "Everybody should be groomed equally, regardless of race, colour or creed". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously because of the relative size of populations it's still possible for some ethnic groups to be more likely to be part of one and still be a minority of the offenders. I would assume (maybe cynically) that the government was looking for such a link and if they could have found it they would have. If i remember correctly though there were specific failings in Rotherham with people not investigating properly due to cultural sensitivity or something. That was a while ago and firmly within the government's responsibility to sort out. I agree that there is some truth, but it's presented disingenuously as a racial issue when in fact it was an institutional issue, and if it's still a problem, it's a problem because the government didn't give enough of a shit about poor girls to do anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue with grooming gangs isn't one of race but one of males controlling and abusing vulnerable young women. By focusing on the stereotype of" grooming gangs are Asian" she is deliberately playing on the racialist tendencies of the gammony working classes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2020 Home Office report was pretty vague on the ethnicity issue, largely due to the data available. The MSM reporting of the report was pretty selective. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
