The troubled national inquiry into child abuse has mounted a fightback after a large survivors’ group withdrew from participation, condemning it as a “stage-managed and contrived” investigation.

In a series of television interviews, senior panel member Dru Sharpling said the inquiry would continue. She apologised to hundreds of victims of child abuse in Lambeth children’s homes – the Shirley Oaks Survivors Association – who announced they were pulling out of the proceedings on Friday because it was “failing publicly and tragically”.

But Sharpling insisted the investigations would go on without the group. She said: “The Lambeth investigation will continue. I am very sorry that they have decided to leave. I hope that they will come back, but we will continue to do that work. There is evidence being forwarded to us now which enables us to undertake this inquiry and I hope that, as time goes by, their confidence in the inquiry improves, as others have.”

The troubled inquiry into child sex abuse was hit by a fresh crisis today after two more victim groups said they had lost confidence in its leadership.
They expressed concerns about Professor Alexis Jay, the fourth chair of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) and have demanded an emergency meeting with the inquiry's panel to discuss their work.
The Minister and Clergy Sexual Abuse Survivors (MACSAS) group said it wanted to 'to find out exactly where this is going, because none of us really know' as it said questioned Professor Jay's qualifications to lead the inquiry.
And the White Flowers Alba group, which also represents alleged victims of child abuse, warned that the crisis surrounding the inquiry was deterring key witnesses from speaking out.

The beleaguered child abuse inquiry faced a new secrecy row last night as it was accused of gagging lawyers from talking to MPs about why they have quit.
The Home Affairs Select Committee has requested written evidence from seven lawyers who have resigned from Britain’s biggest public inquiry.
But the Mail has learnt that the barristers have been prevented from speaking out under contractual rules. The inquiry has refused to waive legal privilege, which prevents all communications between a lawyer and their client from being disclosed without the permission of the client, which in this case is the inquiry.

Now there's an inquiry into sex abuse inquiry! Yet more farce as lawyers probe lawyers on claims of bullying and sex assaults... no wonder it's costing £100m

It is not believed the offences occurred while he was an officer, Snaresbrook Crown Court heard.

So why the need to mention his previous profession when it had no bearing on what went on?

BH-H commenting in the news again:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4035390/Scotland-Yard-probe-20-VIPs.html

At least 20 high profile people are at the centre of Scotland Yard investigations, Britain’s top police officer said yesterday.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, who retires from policing in a matter of weeks, described some of them as ‘very significant public figures.'

Although it doesn't clarify if these 'very significant public figures' are related to child abuse.

She shouldn't be released. Ever.

This makes sad reading and also this little piece stands out.

And corruption at the heart of Scotland Yard meant that almost all of the abusers have escaped justice, it said.

Yep good old SY in charge of an operation to discover what happened to a missing child in a foreign land and failing miserably.

Those allegations have presumably died a death.

Another sort of allegation - all right it's just gossip this time but it's riveting news that we all need to know!

Will just stick this one here about this disgusting Doctor.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4225062/Paediatrician-admits-distributing-child-abuse-videos.html

Senior children's doctor, 47, pleads guilty to distributing horrific hours-long films of the most-extreme child abuse to fellow paedophiles
Dr Jonathan Walsh pleaded guilty to 17 charges at Exeter Crown Court
These included nine count of distributing indecent images of children and six of making them
Walsh previously worked as a paediatrician at North Devon District Hospital
But police have said none of the offences related to patients at the hospital

Group of women who say they were abused by Sir Edward Heath also claim their parents ran a satanic sex cult that was involved in SIXTEEN child murders
They say that the cult regularly slaughtered children as ritual sacrifices in church
The woman claim that the former prime minister was part of a paedophile ring
If the allegations are true it would make the cult the worst child murderers in British history

**Freedom** Mon 20 Feb 2017, 10:41 am

Hmmm - it sounds as if they watched horror films when they were younger.

It really is difficult to believe that many children could be murdered and nobody notice that they had disappeared.

It's unlikely from what we know of him that Edward Heath abused females. He might have been involved with rent boys but that doesn't make him a killer as has been alleged at times.

P.S. This reminds me of various child abuse scandals like the one in Cleveland which is perhaps the best known.

A married BBC duo dubbed the 'Richard and Judy of local radio' are trying to clear their names over a string of historic child sex offences.
Tony Wadsworth and Julie Mayer, who were axed from Radio Leicester last year, have a total of 14 charges dating back to the 1990s hanging over them.
But the couple, who could be jailed if found guilty of abusing four children, are now asking a Crown Court judge to drop them all.
