MP arrested on suspicion of child abuse and rape

[Maffy]

I really hope this is not true, but how do these people gain positions of responsibility?

Bloody hell.

Main story now on the BBC website

I’ve just seen this. Previously worked as a teacher and in child protection apparently. Bloody awful.

I know he’s innocent until proven guilty etc etc. Not yet been charged. But bloody hell.

"Trained with the NSPCC, previously worked as a child protection officer" I feel sick.

He's our local MP and also Mayor of WECA (West of England Combined Authorities).

Just caught up with this. Not again I thought. Another child abuse case.

Have there always been this many cases and they just used to not be reported, or is this CSA worsening due to some sort of societal issue or the Internet?
Seems insane the amount of seemingly normal offenders.

A local priest, teacher, school chaplain, married with four children, one a pre toddler was arrested a few months ago here in sleepy n Wales. Received a suspended sentence.

I don't know if we're catching more to be honest.
