@JHound nope. It's form a quote you lifted way back??

You don’t think a very wide ranging national report concluded 2 years ago ‘shone a light’ then?

This is what I came to say. Why are the Tories calling for an enquiry, and blaming Labour for not having one, when there was a very informative enquiry which led to the 2022 report, which the Tories ignored?

if you think Musk getting involved is a good thing I truly despair. He isn't using his platform to "shine a light". He is using it as a way to get involved in UK politics which is a truly terrifying prospect. He has bought his way into US politics, paid people for their vote. He is now bankrolling a private business that masquerades as a political party here. I find him more terrifying than I do Trump.

X is a cess pit of misogyny and racism, if Musk is so worried about the safety of women and girls why is he happy to let this go unchecked?

When Musk took over Twitter there was huge amounts of child abuse imagery (aka ‘child porn’) and paedophiles (aka ‘minor attracted people’s on it. He cracked down on this and much of it has now emigrated yo BlueSky.

Has he cracked down on the porn? Genuine question, I am not an x or twitter user. DC talks about kids at school accessing twitter porn. He may mean tiktok though.

Thanks for proving the point you know ZERO about this scandal. Go do your home work and learn the basic facts before commenting 🤔

I am asking you. You said the report did not cover all areas. So what areas do you think it missed?

Chainzreaction · 03/01/2025 12:47

Feelingathomenow · 03/01/2025 12:45

Any there needs to be more, that is clear and there needs to be an investigation as to how it was allowed to happen.

Apparently it still is happening.

I don’t care who is putting pressure on Labour, I don’t care what their motives are. Children in the UK, apparently as young as 10 or 11 were allegedly drugged and raped by adult men as part of organised gangs.

Of course this needs investigating. Every single person complicity in this atrocity needs to be brought to justice. Why on earth would any decent human being not want this investigated? Anyone shining light on child abuse is doing the right thing. We have a duty as a country to protect children. Anyone found guilty must be removed from society. Where they can be, they need removing from the UK permanently, where they can’t they need imprisoning for a very long time. They are rapists and child abusers.

But do you care why? Because it's obvious this is an attempt to stir up racists and undermine our democracy.

HumanBurrito · 03/01/2025 12:48

There has been an investigation. Do people honestly think Starmer, who has devoted his entire career to furthering the cause of law and who kids himself, is sitting there going "mass rapes of vulnerable young women? meh can't be arsed to look into it"? or are the facts perhaps being slightly misrepresented at some point along the line by people with a vested interested in destabilising the UK politically?

@lifeonmars100 we all know Elon has gone a little....

But fascist? Apparently he was devoted democratic until fairly recently.

What happened?

thousandsofdreams · 03/01/2025 12:32

It might be that Elon Musk knows something most of us don't, because of who he is. So he knows why things aren't being investigated. For example, there may be a person of power behind the scenes trying to squash invesigation for some reason, which most of us don't know about it and EM is pushing the other way to provide a balance. I am not saying this is right, I might be talking nonsense, but I am guessing there will be a reason why EM has picked up on this particular horror, out of the many horrors we face in the world.

You are indeed talking nonsense. Conspiracy nonsense, which is often anti semitic in nature.
Nobody is squashing investigations for one thing. There’s been a detailed inquiry and report.

Totallymessed · 03/01/2025 12:49

JHound · 03/01/2025 12:42

I said I was an expert on the content of the report?

REALLY? Are you sure about that?

Maybe go back and read a few posts.

You're working very hard to give the impression you know what you're talking about. I'm not saying I think you do.

There have been several major trials and lots of men are in prison for a very long time.

How many of them, and how long for though, exactly?

This is the methodology of the Elonites - they have no answers so they DARVO.

We can't all spend all day and all night on Mumsnet, unfortunately.

How about you try and do a modicum of research yourself? It might introduce you to some facts.

Chainzreaction · 03/01/2025 12:47

I'm sure it is. As is sexual abuse of young girls by other groups, which is actually the majority of such crimes. Why is it that only the crimes committed by a certain ethnic group concern you so much?

I'm concerned with ALL VAWAG. And the problem is MEN. Not just one subset of men, but all predatory men.

well if the two of you read the tread and my posts, the answers would allready be listed their 😂

I do not pander to people who are to lazy to educate themselfs on a subject they are questioning. This is a forum, how about you educate yourselfs first before dipping your toes in.

Its a bit like going another country with strict laws, breaking them and claiming you did not now.

Feelingathomenow · 03/01/2025 12:44

Musk can’t make any person vote for something. What he can do is pile on pressure to ensure that the systemic rape and abuse of young girls is properly investigated, together with any cover up. The Labour Party are doing a great job of pushing people towards voting reform without the help of any outside agents. They’re a disgrace.

You really think he is doing it in the interest of the girls? You really are truly deluded! Your delusions continue of course he can influence the outcome, he’s giving huge sums to reform so that they can peddle misinformation which the gullible like you believe! Did you read their manifesto at the last election? I suggest you do as if Reform were elected the US would become our paymasters! You do realise that Musk backed Biden in 2020? He switched to Trump and MAGA as he knew he could influence Trump! You do realise that Musk will actually be running the US!

Sunworshiper · 03/01/2025 12:38

@Totallymessed They have conveniently missed the point as they have ZERO clue about this all that 40 of the towns and cities that have been identified to hold these rape gangs are not mentioned in that most of the councils and people involved still hold positions of power to this day.

They still fail to realise that calling for a national inquiry will allow them to investigate the whole thing and join the dots and not allow those who failed them in the first place to investigate themselves and cover it up further.
But that’s to simple for them to understand.

Edited

There. Has. Been. A. National. Inquiry.
FFS. The post you quote was asking for a summary of the report of that inquiry so you haven’t even was/understood what you are quoting.

anniegun · 03/01/2025 12:54

Badenoch is being shown at her worst here. The Tories made the same decision as Labour but now Musk has brought it up she is all for (another) enquiry.

No, they aren't. And you know that. You made a thread about Elon Musk's involvement, not a thread to discuss how shocking the crimes were.
