BBC Cesspit – Its not just about Savile

24.10.2012 02:55

This campaign has consistently stated that the BBC’s interest in Hollie’s abuse and Anne had been managed, manipulated and spiked.

Ever looked at Indy UK and thought,

"There are a lot less original posts than there used to be"

Well you are right there are and one reason is the heavy handed, arrogant approach taken by the moderators - below is a perfect example.

The poster did all that was asked of him, he saw his post had been hidden so instead of simply moving away from Indymedia and posting somewhere else on the web he took the time to discover the details of the collective, found out the correct procedure for querying a hide and promptly emailed them. The response he received was staggering:

https://lists.indymedia.org.uk/pipermail/moderation/2012-October/000911.html

Is where is begins, read through and watch how two moderators combine to belittle the requests, patronise the person, dismiss questions raised and generally do all they can to ensure this person feels unwanted. What are the chances of this individual returning to Indymedia, how likely is it he or she will post an update on their campaign, provide a report of an action, give details in the calender of an event or crucially recommend Indy UK to others. ?

I am sure the two moderators involved have a nice smug feeling of superiority as a result of this episode and when Indy UK is left with no posts apart from the Turkish spam I am sure they will be the first to complain that the site got no support from the activist community. Indy UK is in decline not just because it failed to move with the times but also because the attitude of the moderators drives people away.

'Number 10 link to paedophile ring'

24.10.2012 15:36

"There is "clear intelligence" suggesting a historic paedophile ring may be linked to Downing Street and a former prime minister, MPs have been told.

Labour MP Tom Watson alleged a member of a notorious group was connected to a former No 10 aide.

He said: "The evidence file used to convict Peter Righton, if it still exists, contains clear intelligence of a widespread paedophile ring.

"One of its members boasts of his links to a senior aide of a former prime minister, who says he could smuggle indecent images of children from abroad.

"The leads were not followed up, but if the files still exist, I want to ensure that the Metropolitan Police secure the evidence, re-examine it and investigate clear intelligence suggesting a powerful paedophile network linked to Parliament and No 10."

Speaking at Prime Minister's Questions in the Commons, David Cameron said it was a "very difficult and complex case" and he was "not entirely sure" to which former prime minister Mr Watson was referring.

The Prime Minister said he would look at the case "very carefully and see what the Government can do to help give" Mr Watson the assurances he wanted."

Protestant paramilitaries who ran child-sex

24.10.2012 22:47

How ironic, in view of what the far-right say about Islam and kiddy-fiddlers, that the organisations most responsible for covering-up for child abusers are Christian - a/ the Catholic Church, b/ the Boy Scouts, and c/ (in case anyone thinks this comment is sectarian) the Protestant Loyalist paramilitaries who ran child-sex rings for senior Establishment figures in collusion with MI6 -

And, while we're thinking about the police cover-ups over Ian Tomlinson, Hillsborough, Orgreave, Sean Rigg and the thousands of other people who've been killed by the British police, let's not forget the cops who were paid-off by Jimmy Savile

Same story goes mainstream on ITN and Daily Mail etc

Playing child

It is useless and rather sick to overcompensate the lack of feeling among adults in vulnerable children who do suffer thereby; it is easier to be full of pity for a coward than to be sensible eye to eye. The lack of feeling in adults is the cause of and is caused by a similar cold in their own childhood when it didn't matter, which is reacted to the commenter playing child.
