More hysterical nonsense about Cliff Richard and Jimmy Savile
A further nonsense 'report' about Jimmy Savile is published just as the process which led to this witch-hunt travesty is being rehearsed all over again with Cliff Richard by the ever useless South Yorkshire Police and the BBC, stung into further wild flailing fantasy by the lambasting they received this week.
When will anyone learn that if you carry out a police-media trawl of any and every celebrity, then inevitably a line of variously motivated complainants comes forward? This is just as would be expected no matter how clearly innocent is the target. And they don't come much more obviously innocent than Cliff Richard.
It's not as though this phenomenon is unknown or non-researched. It's taboo, of course: Professor Keith Soothill's findings about the amazingly trivial varied motivations of women making false rape allegations is never even mentioned in the media. And that's before you consider the research on the hopelessness of human memory even for events which have just happened, never mind putative occurrences of 30 or 40 years ago, for which 'false memories' are readily constructed. The media spotlight and financial recompense enter the fray with high-profile police-media trawling; as does the issue of the sheer volume of individuals – the entire population – from which there are significant numbers of psychologically disturbed women seeking a peg on which to hang their aberrant life histories, supposed PTSD, etc. When you have literally thousands of sexual encounters in your past, then it's a fair bet that a lot of now ageing females are going to redefine consensual and, indeed their initiated advances, as now somehow non-consensual.
The report on Savile is merely yet further cataloguing of mere allegation, on the spurious grounds that parallel allegation must be mutually corroborating. It's profoundly false to rely on the very phenomenon your investigative methods in themselves were bound to produce as justification for your investigation and its mode. It's a 'self-fulfilling prophecy' almost certain to result in miscarriage of justice.
It's not that all there is here is invention, of course; it's not least the exaggeration of behaviour which appears to be nothing out of the ordinary for a very high-profile youth-cult celebrity. At worst, Savile was described as a "sex pest". No doubt he had a presumptive attitude that a kiss or cuddle from him usually would be welcome. That's because usually obviously they were. But it is madness to extrapolate the likely high volume of sex he had with young women and older girls in his trailer by the TOTP studio to try to make out that somehow this was with unwilling partners, and that he transferred this behaviour to a hospital setting. Someone at the time in Savile's position would have had an endless stream of girls throwing themselves at him. It would require saintly behaviour never to have misread signals and never to have unwittingly had sex with an under-age girl (when girls by the thousand lied about their ages to get into the TOTP studio). The normal behaviour of such males at times might now, in our crazy era, pass for misdemeanour as 'sexual harassment', but hardly so at the time; and if it would have been thus considered it would be regarded as mild. It's not 'rape' or serious sexual assault. And still less was it 'paedophilia', even on the non-scientific current absurdly loose definition of the term – 'paedophilia is an exclusive sexual interest in pre-pubertal individuals, and Savile had a non-exclusive sexual interest in post-pubertal girls (he had sex with fully mature women).
History, and very recent history included, is littered with appalling witch-hunts of male sexual behaviour. It is not long ago that we had the utterly risible 'satanic sexual abuse' hysteria. This was found, eventually, to be 100% bogus. It was a wholly non-existent phenomenon. Now we have a recapitulation of that ridiculous hysteria to try to convict any male ageing celebrity through inviting bogus allegation or to goad anyone who has any sort of social or willing sexual encounter to redefine it as assault. So it is that Rolf Harris – Rolf Harris of all people – is in prison on the basis of nothing substantive. Ditto several others, not to mention the many cases too absurdly flimsy that even in the current climate the sex-fascists at the CPS couldn't persuade some hapless jury to convict.
I need to add, it should go without saying it (though in our numptie-coddling era it's necessary), that it may be that Savile indeed was the serious predator he's being made out to be, but there is in place of evidence only allegation. Therefore, no such conclusion can be made. But more than this, the likelihood is that surely he was 'a bit of a lad' but worse than that he was not.
This debacle will be looked back on by future generations as an object lesson in how crazy a society can become..

Rotherham 'PC': Liebore shafts itself in its own rotten borough
Everybody now fully accepts that 'political correctness' -- the enforcement of 'identity politics' principles – is at the root of the dysfunctional Labour rotten borough of Rotherham; everybody bar the Labour Party and its union sponsors, that is. The parachuted-in all-wimmin (and no locals)-rigged new MP there, Sarah Champion, reckons UKIP is inappropriately making a political issue out of it. Come again?! [Well we can hardly expect much logic or sense from someone so protected from any meaningful competition in her selection.]
It IS of course a political issue and with giant knobs on. The issue is 'PC': the totalitarian ethos which, more than any other organisation, the Liebore Party has foisted on us. This is the political party that originally and still more than any other embodies the nonsense of 'the personal is political'. Yet Liebore is pushing the line that the gang-rape of large numbers of under-age girls in a pretty crappy town Liebore was instrumental, in various ways, of making crappy … that this somehow is not political! It's one thing to turn UK steelmaking into a crazily, vastly over-manned and thereby massively uncompetitive industry (costing the taxpayer, back in the early 1980s, £100 per week per employee), but it is quite a feat to feed the over-manning with huge numbers of wholly non-needed people from an alien culture; who form a separate migrant enclave, from which come those who manufacture instead of steel an actual (rather than the feminists' imagined) 'rape culture'.
Could Liebore any better gift UKIP the Rotherham Parliamentary seat?
The now all-pervasive totalitarian ideology of our age ('identity politics' reinforced by 'PC') hides the basis of the strong link between rape and ethnic minority: the rape of 'host' community girls by migrant enclave men. The Pakistani-on-'white' gang-rape culture further revealed in Rotherham – already officially well known back in 2002 and the subject of now three reports – is a window on the core reality of forced sex (that is, rape as popularly well understood, and not the usually cross-signals or retrospective withdrawal of consent that is most 'acquaintance rape'): it occurs across a major in-group/ out-group divide. 'Normal' males do not appear to force sex on females within what they perceive to be their own community. Yes, in certain scenarios, such as a war theatre, given certain conditions men may force sex when the target would be clearly belonging to a very distinct out-group (not the sort of arbitrary 'minimal' group created in social psychology experiments). 'White' girls were not part of the community of these Pakistani men, as they perceived things; and evidently were regarded as 'fair game' -- like ISIS warriors view non-Wahhabi females.
As highlighted in the new (as in the previous) report, and as everyone knows would always have been the case, the 'race card' was shown to anyone so much as hinting they might make a fuss about people who, though of the politically hated class 'men', happened to be of an ethnic minority. The critical factor in why the problem persisted unaddressed for so long is the 'identity politics' (/'PC') imperative not to raise an issue in respect of a 'group' identified as 'disadvantaged' and 'oppressed'.
It is -- to use the risible Rotherham MP's word – "hilarious" that her Party's deliberate mass importation of an un-needed and undesired alien culture has bit the hand that fed it, just as the Roma are biting David Blunkett's guilty bum in adjacent parts of Sheffield. 'Social engineering' by politicians motivated by hatred towards the masses in their 'identity politics' (/'PC') has boomeranged, as it has long been obvious it would do.
