I think the person who suggested Michael Gove is on the wrong tracks - wrong by about 30 years.

Because it's a load of unsubstantiated, homophobic claptrap? trotting out the old homosexual=paedophile stuff? C'mon, seriously?

Reminds me of the fairly recent threads that said..."What, just 'cos he looked like a weirdo & lived alone, Savile was a paedo? It's nothing but a load of unsubstantiated claptrap - about a dear old man who raised millions for charity".

Hmm

You may be right - it might all be bollox. But absolutely nowhere have I seen anyone pulling the homosexual=paedophile stuff. Guess what - some paedophiles are gay, some are straight, some are lesbians and some are bi-sexual.

Let's wait and see.

I said Jimmy Somerville because people keep confusing him with Jimmy Saville, just like the swansea footballer and the former home secretary.

David Icke named some people many years ago in his book 'The Biggest Secret' and some allegations he made were even more serious, and he always said if it isn't true why didn't anyone sue him.

I'm only putting names in the way of 'this blog says x has done y',. Which I believe is ok as the blog does say that do what I've said is true. I offer no opinion on whether the blog is correct.

I don't think anyone has trotted out , homosexual = paedophile at all.

I think that in the past when homosexuality was illegal, gay men could have been forced to become secretive and to mix in circles which may have overlapped with more sinster groups including paedophilia. But that obviously does not mean that one necessarily links to the other.

I don't think anyone would sue David Icke because that might suggest he was actually worth taking seriously.

If you're just one of many people named in one of his conspiracy theories (along with extraterrestrial lizards or whatever) it would surely be better just to treat it as a big joke?

DW saw Michael Portillo being shown round Marrakesh back in the 1990s - he was on his own though with a guide doing the tour in Spanish ;-)

It's outrageous and unbelievable - it actually reads like one of those 'fantastical' American thrillers.....

It just gets worse and worse......;-(

And all I can say on the subject of Newsnight is that my twitter feed this afternoon has been curiously full of references to suede shoes...

Well he just had a sellout show at Wembley Stadium a week ago, and he says it on video and live and in radio interviews etc. There are blogs all over the net saying similar things.

I've just been on Guido's blog: there are dozens of names there - all parties, all plausible. No clear front runner.

And that's the damning bit. So many of whom one was prepared to believe it.

Blue suede shoes, expat? Mine was full of comments about a young one who likes summer holidays and devil women.

There is a youtube video of David Icke at the Oxford Union. They invited him to speak. I personally think he says a lot of things that are true but lots of new age stuff that is rubbish and is possible deliberate deception of the audience to further a new age agenda. But not everything he says is rubbish. He said Savile was a paedophile and necrophiliac while the main stream media was lauding him for his charity work.

If that's who I think it is, & turns out to be true, I'd be really, really Shock about that. And slightly gutted 'cos I've always thought of him as one of the good guys :(

I think the politician in question is known for wearing rather scruffy brown suede shoes. But Twitter has been getting rather over-excited this afetrnoon, so who knows.

Same here, Crikey - not a Tory fan, but he always seemed more human than the new guard. But may well be wrong.

However, I'm thinking it's not him now, anyway.

www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/9652422/New-BBC-row-over-Newsnight-paedophile-politician-probe.html

The Daily Telegraph has learned that the claims centre on historic allegations about a paedophile ring at a children's home.
The politician, who does not want to be named, told The Daily Telegraph the allegations were "totally untrue".

It seems that the media covered for Savile and others, but now the lid has been lifted. Some media will not look in, but it is possible that other media might look further. It might spread and it is not impossible that it might even lead to a general election.
