    I'm a trainee counsellor and am still trying hard with my inner demons to not want to just put a bullet through every sexually predatory person out there. I can't see a reason for them to breathe but I know that a high percentage of them have been abused as a child and are victims as well. It would be a lot clearer if we just thought that some people are evil and some people are good. We live in a very complex reality but at the moment I would still pull the lever on them every time. What does that make me?

    It's like your scared to death to say what you know, and this is the same with the media they know what's going on with these rape gangs but are scared to speak out in case they get cancelled or end up in court. Ask yourself why social services, police and the government have let this go on even when young vulnerable girls have begged for help. I get so angry with people who brush around this I just wish people would just say it like it truly is.

    Hi Ant, great informative video. Shame it's even a issue that needs to be addressed, like you said it should be known worldwide what is happening! I'm currently studying counselling and psychotherapy at university & I cannot wait to get stuck in helping people. We have been learning about shadow crimes and why people don't report crimes..the ideal and non ideal victim, those who are seen as 'non-ideal', that do not get to require a victim status, just because of where they live, who they reside with, the money their family earn etc, therfore many don't report crimes due to being victimised just based on these factors...we need to protect our children, schools need to be teaching children about their own bodies and consent from such a young age, it's just looked over...

    Hello Ant, thank you so much for bringing this particular subject to the fore. I’ve been saying this for over 25 years to the point where I’ve been sectioned under the mental health act many times. No one believed me that this is going on. I became aware when I caught my neighbour looking at images that were called Lolita’s or even more sickening pre teen Lolita’s online. There are over 1,000,000 nonces in the uk alone, they have so much power and money that they can influence the police and politics themselves to the point where people have been murdered. I myself was nearly killed by four on duty police officers including an inspector.

    We can write software to help these kids than runs on phones. AI that learns how a child is behaving on their phone around social media, WhatsApp, internet browsing, etc etc. Proper family protection. We can also do this via internet browsers either on phones or on laptops/apple machines. I am working on something now that will start targeting the grooming gangs by overriding VPNs that check where people are logging in using geolocations to all of their social media profiles. If we can get agreement off the social media companies and governments (again we are working on this) to then add the AI to help monitor children. The American tech companies simply do not understand how massive this problem is, this includes child abuse as well as grooming. Then we can work with mental health professionals and children experts to create the AI to monitor mental health. We can help millions of people if we get this right
