Can you imagine being a 10 year old kid and having to put your face near that naked man's genitals? I'm very serious--would you EVER recover from that grotesque concoction of sights and (likely) smells? And yet it's allowed to continue because people "find it uncomfortable" to discuss. Just remember what the people who are abused are LITERALLY exposed to. If they don't get to "ignore it", why do you get to? I'm so fed up with people just closing their eyes out of bs prudishness or CYA/embarrassment. So what do we do about it?

I am a victim of abuse myself in the 1980's . My heart goes out to all the victims. several things you have to remember about child abuse and abusers at that time. Abuse was not taken seriously as a crime back then. A child would never be belived over an adult, especially if that adult was famous. Abusers were clever a lot of the time in who the would abuse. Smyth and Savile picked on pepole in the care system, or hospitals or borstal. Pepole that would be seen as trouble makers. If you had the courage to continue in your report you would have to face the person in court, there was no such thing as video evidence as there is today. Some of the questions would be asked to discredit you.

They are told by higher authority not to investigate. They can't go ahead and investigate and charge someone without a reasonable chance of conviction, once charged it's down to the C. P. S to decide if to pursue the matter through the court's, and in certain circumstances the file is dismissed others it's listed " As not in the publics interest". None of this is down to the police, they work within a system. Much like the military, if you are sent off to fight an illegal war and told to bomb civilians, and you know its wrong, you either refuse, and if you do you'll face the consequences, or you go ahead and try to justify those actions to yourself and all around you, to keep your job.

I can remember in my youth being told by a pub landlord in Middleton to keep well clear of two men who were recruiting boys for Cyril Smith - I remember sharing the warning with 3 friends why staring at these 2 men puzzled -- to be honest we were not entirely sure what the landlord meant - it wasn't till years later joined the dots - if landlords knew in the next town it must have been common knowledge

A few years ago we heard that a secret store room had been found at 10 Downing Street which was packed with reports that had been thought to be lost. At the time we were told that someone with the highest security clearance would have to be assigned to catalogue the contents, and that would take years. I don't suppose that's a priority task at present, so the Child Sexual Abuse inquiry will not see or even hear of these.

I cannot believe how many individuals have been shielded by the individuals who should have been protected. They have to die before any action is taken. Is this to stop them naming others they have within a sexual abuse ring. How many people are involved in the abuse of children and still out there. They could even be actively carrying out the abuse. This is not going stop until all the ring are convicted. Hopefully before they die then the victims actually get some justice.

I also heard a story about a time in the 60s when the queen and her husband visited a school for native children in camloops Canada. They took 10 children with them for a 'picnic' and those children were never seen again. One of their classmates spoke up about it years later and mysteriously died shortly after. The royal family are up to all sorts of nasty business, no wonder the queen loves dishing out knighthoods to pedos.

Kyle W. Kavenaugh was accused of rape by one woman who didn’t go public until a highly contested political confirmation. Smith was accused by dozens of children and investigated by the police and security services and admitted some of the crimes to a colleague, and the allegations were made public after his death. Not comparable at all.

Watch very carefully at 6.38 mins.... see the body language of what can only be described as physical fear ,portrayed by the man at the front of the group. Notice how Cyril Smith slowly moves around,well aware of his effect on this man. What went on between these two people remains a mystery. But its interesting,to see the way he puts his hands up,to protect himself. As if Smith had caused some violence in the past,and the man is expecting more. We don't know. Is this man still alive????
