As already spelled out, anyone who buys the argument that the police ignored it "because racism", with absolutely no evidence for this being brought to light from before it was used as a defence, is a loving moron. The police are racists, and they do what they're told.

The Rotherham report examined not only police investigations, but reported cases of child sexual abuse to several agencies operating in the borough including police, social services, child welfare, local council and an outreach center. They found that in 95% of the suspected cases it was likely that children had been abused or groomed for abuse, and that in the vast majority of those cases the perpetrator was described as "Asian". At least in the case of Rotherham, the evidence is overwhelming that ethnic minorities, specifically Asians (probably Pakistanis), are disproportionately likely to be perpetrators of child sexual abuse in cases that are reported. It does no good to anyone to pretend otherwise.

SedanChair posted:OK, they're Pakistani. Now what? Literally now what? I'll defer to the summary of the report's Section 11, titled "Issue of ethnicity", quote:Issues of ethnicity related to child sexual exploitation have been discussed in other reports, including the Home Affairs Select Committee report, and the report of the Children’s Commissioner. Within the Council, we found no evidence of children’s social care staff being influenced by concerns about the ethnic origins of suspected perpetrators when dealing with individual child protection cases, including CSE. In the broader organisational context, however, there was a widespread perception that messages conveyed by some senior people in the Council and also the Police, were to 'downplay' the ethnic dimensions of CSE. Unsurprisingly, frontline staff appeared to be confused as to what they were supposed to say and do and what would be interpreted as 'racist'. From a political perspective, the approach of avoiding public discussion of the issues was ill judged. Additionally, I agree with this excerpt from Section 14, "Recommendations", Thug Lessons fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Feb 26, 2016 |

The thing is that official and complete indifference to vulnerable young girls and women in the UK is rampant. While things are better than in the 1980s, when many children's homes were run by peadophiles, the Home Office (the government department in charge of law enforcement) gave a funding grant to the Peadophile Information Exchange, the civil servant in charge of child protection was a peadophile and when he visited children's homes would be provided with a child and a lockable room, Jimmy Savile was put in charge of Broad Moor by the Tory government, and everyone up to and including the Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher was aware of this and covered it up. Throw in prominent politicians, judges, members of the establishment, senior figures in the secret police including allegedly the head of MI6 being peadophiles and you have a recipe for embedding a culture of indifference to the activities of child molesters. However in cases like this 'being brown so we can't investigate because it would be racist' being put about it for some reason more believable than local police and politicians liked to rape kids and consort with criminals, and were bribed with money or sex with children to prevent investigations, even though that is literally the historical model for this. No one cares about children being looked after by local authorities. That's why they are there. And no one is willing to fight the political battles to get it properly funded. Many local authorities are looking at privatising caring for these children, because nothing says caring for children better than lowest bidder contracts from companies who have all been accused of abusing people in their care in the past.
