British Lord Accused of Raping Boys Inside Parliament
Daily Beast ^ | 06/24/2015 | Nico Hines

LONDON — A current member of Britain’s House of Lords “violated, raped, and tortured” children inside the Houses of Parliament, it was claimed last night in one of the most shocking accusations yet to be heard in the country’s growing VIP sex-abuse scandal.

Britain’s public prosecutor ruled earlier this year that similar cases of sexual assault should not be brought against the alleged perpetrator, Lord Janner, because he was suffering from dementia. Police recommended the Labour Lord face trial on charges of six rapes and 16 sexual assaults alleged to have taken place between 1969 and 1998, but prosecutors decided the 86-year-old was unfit to stand trial.

The alleged child-abuse victims, some of whom say they were attacked by Janner as boys, say they believe the politician is being protected as part of an establishment cover-up, designed to protect Britain’s rich and powerful from the full force of the law, which continues to this day.

The horrific scale of sexual abuse against children carried out by powerful figures in British public life was laid bare last month, when police officers disclosed that they were investigating allegations against 76 politicians and almost 250 “persons of public prominence.” More than 100,000 alleged attacks have been catalogued by detectives since the police launched a series of inquiries into sexual abuse by people in positions of power.

Despite the public inquiry and police investigations, campaigners argue that British leaders are still trying to hide the worst of the abuse that has been perpetrated against children and teenagers over decades. Britain’s libel and defamation laws, which are some of the fiercest in the world, have also prevented victims from speaking out against their attackers.

Sigh, if I have to explain that, perhaps you shouldn’t be taking part in UK threads.

Bowie (contrary to myth) is not bisexual.
Guinness was a happily married man.

Methinks you are confusing Obi Wan with Sir John Gielgud, who WAS gay.

Ten?.

I could name you hundreds of famous English rock stars, pop stars, actors, writers, musicians, celebrities, sports stars, politicians etc etc of the last 50-60 yrs who are straight.

Let’s see... Winston Churchill, Stephen Hawking, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon, George Harrison, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, G.K. Chesterton, Bertrand Russell, Alfred North Whitehead, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Francis Crick, T. S. Eliot, Paul Dirac.

Actually, now that I think about it, that's not really an appropriate measure. Because Homosexuals make up 1.8% (latest most scientific survey) of the population, to bring the numbers back into balance, you need to name ~ 50 times the number of normal people that are not queers.

I guess that means that if there are 10 prominent homosexuals in England from the last half Century, then you should have to name 500 prominent Englishmen in the last half Century who are not Homosexual.

The 1-1 ratio you have matched so far, actually supports my point quite strongly.

CS Lewis spoke of the buggery that was commonplace in the British boys schools.

The queers are claiming him. Sorry. I was disappointed too.

Good. As I pointed out in an earlier message, you need to come up with 500 of them just to make the ratio of Normal/Homosexual in line with what the latest studies have revealed is the norm in the US.

Here, 1.8% of the population is queer. That puts the ratio at better than 50 to 1.

It's really not fair. Every time I add one, you have to add 50. :)

OK, born in America but took British citizenship. Does that count?
