For years, Britain’s political class has treated the grooming gang scandal<\/b><\/a> as though it were a public relations problem rather than one of the greatest safeguarding catastrophes in modern British history.<\/p>\n In November<\/b><\/a>, 1,273 such investigations from 23 police forces had already been referred to the National Crime Agency (NCA), 236 of which were prioritised because they involved allegations of rape.<\/p>\n The truly astonishing part is that nobody in Westminster seems remotely embarrassed by this revelation. Instead, officials present the reopening of botched investigations as evidence that the system is working. Imagine a fire brigade congratulating itself for finally noticing a building that burned down ten years ago. That is roughly where we are.<\/p>\n Return to the UK’s Christian Constitution \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n The National Crime Agency said: “At this early stage, the reviews have identified closed cases from eight force areas that may have viable lines of inquiry.<\/p>\n “The forces have been directed to reopen these cases, to determine the next steps in relation to any reinvestigation.<\/p>\n NCA director general Graeme Biggar said it was “the first step toward seeking justice for victims and survivors”.<\/p>\n “Operation Beaconport is the most comprehensive and complex investigation into child sexual exploitation and abuse in UK history,” he said.<\/p>\n Support NCCSS \/ Christian Voice \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n The timing is particularly embarrassing. Beaconport coincides with the anniversary of Baroness Casey’s<\/b><\/a> national audit, a report that described years of systemic failures in confronting group-based child sexual exploitation.<\/p>\n The Home Secretary has now called Baroness’s findings a “landmark report” exposing more than a decade of inaction. Quite so. The only question is why it required yet another landmark report to establish what victims, campaigners and local journalists had been saying for years.<\/p>\n Britain has developed a curious tradition in which institutions deny a problem, then reluctantly acknowledge it, then commission an inquiry to investigate why they denied it, before finally announcing reforms that should have been implemented a decade earlier. The grooming gang scandal fits this pattern perfectly.<\/p>\n Again and again, survivors described being ignored, whistleblowers warned authorities, officials appeared more concerned about reputational damage than vulnerable children. The remarkable feature of this scandal is not that mistakes were made. Every system makes mistakes. The remarkable feature is the scale, duration and consistency of those mistakes.<\/p>\n When identical failures appear across multiple councils, police forces and public bodies over many years, the word “mistake” begins to look less convincing. At some point, a pattern emerges.<\/p>\n Immigration: Welfare without wisdom \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n Merkel Warns over UK Immigration Plans \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n Makerfield: Reform UK or Restore Britain? \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n Why Is Speaking English in England Now a Debate? \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n READ<\/b>: Genesis 1:28; Isa 10:1\u20132; Ezek 34:2\u20134; Psalm 82:3\u20134; Jere 5:28; Prov 31:8\u20139, Eccl 4:9\u201310; Micah 6:8; Matt 18:6; Luke 8:17; 1 Corinth 6:18 Heb 13:4; Eph 5:3..31.<\/b><\/p>\n PRAY<\/b>: Pray the Lord will raise up humble, God-fearing, honest, truthful, capable men with courage to lead us.<\/p>\n Pray our leaders must turn away from the current Establishment death-wish and proclaim the King of kings of our Christian constitution.<\/p>\n Pray that they will declare Jesus Christ as Lord over our land.<\/p>\n Let us know what YOU think in the comments below.<\/p>\n We appreciate your support; it enables our research and helps us inform your prayers.
