    If it is that deep rooted, I suppose anything and everything will be done to cover up - just hope that somewhere there is someone brave enough to get hold of it. Paranoia maybe, but I'm even suspicious of Clegg saying it must be left to the police - cos they're beyond reproach...

    The same Nick Clegg who must have known the strong rumours about Cyril Smith but then chose to eulogize him when he died?

    Not trusting Clegg seems to be good policy

    Curiously the MP who handed the dossier to Brittan had his house burgled twice just after handing it over, but nothing was taken.

    He did keep a copy (presumably not stolen!), but this was destroyed by his wife after he died as she believed it would cause 'too much trouble'.

    David Peace is speaking about his work GB84 set during the Miners Strike at Experience Barnsley on August 9th and his talk doesn't clash with the first game of the season!!

    naming names in the context of paedophiles is not a good idea. To paste a list or to type 'allegedly' after naming a suspected paedophile may leave the poster open to prosecution. And the mods need to look at this thread carefully for their own protection.
