Ambushing The P.M.

Well done Philip Schofield!

The Prime Minister is afraid that publishing the names of establishment paedophiles might turn into "a witch hunt against people who are gay". Personally I'd have thought it more likely to turn into a witch hunt against people who are Tory- which is why I would advise him- in the interests of political balance- to instigate an inquiry into the inquiry about Dunblane.

Gay people are seldom pedophiles. Usually it is middle aged, straight, married, white men. They are the biggest customers at the baby brothels in Taiwan. Very sick. If I were a sharp shooter, they'd all be dead .

People who prey on children need to be put down. They never stop. No child is safe while they roam free.

An animal with rabies is put down, and it isn't the animals fault that it is rabid. Pedophiles choose to prey. It's so sad and disgusting.

The names on the list the PM was handed are mostly of Tory politicians who identify as or are suspected of being gay. There has to be a strong suspicion that some or all of them are being wrongly accused.

This is the problem with trial by media, it can turn into a witch hunt in which innocent people are falsely accused.

We are supposed to have a system in this country in which you are innocent until proven guilty. This probably does mean that guilty people sometimes get away with their crimes if there isn't enough hard evidence to convict them, but the alternative is that innocent people have their lives and careers ruined and their family's peace of mind destroyed.

But sometimes the law fails- as I believe it did in the case of the Inquiry into abuse at Bryn Estyn.
Malefactors were protected. If the system won't deliver justice we may have to go outside it.
