From the Telegraph and the Guardian
A damning report is expected to disclose that more than 300 young people have been groomed and sexually exploited by gangs in Oxfordshire over the past 15 years.
Systemic failures by police and social services meant victims were subjected to years of sexual torture, rape and trafficking, it is understood.
The victims, mostly girls, come predominantly from Oxford, making it the latest area in Britain to be embroiled in a scandal over the handling of child sex abuse and proving the issue is not confined to inner cities. One senior investigative source told The Guardian: “If you think you haven’t got a problem in your city or town, you are just not looking for it.”
The report comes after seven men were jailed for a string of horrendous child sex crimes against six victims, aged between 11 and 15, over a seven-year period.
…a serious case review by the Oxfordshire safeguarding children board will be published on Tuesday. It is expected to condemn Thames Valley Police and Oxfordshire social services for failing to act. Key findings are will expose how police officers and social workers failed to believe the girls when they detailed the abuse they were suffering, and dismissed their complaints.
The girls and some of their abusers crossed the police and social services radar multiple times. In 2006 alone, the police received four complaints from the young girls about the men, with their accounts corroborated in some cases. One victim reported the abuse twice to police in 2006. She told officers: “They are doing it to other girls, little girls with their school uniforms on.”
There were thousands of contacts between both agencies and the girls and they were reported missing at least 450 times. One victim, known as Girl C, has spoken of how her foster mother reported her missing 80 times.
The report will also put a figure on the extent of the abuse in Oxfordshire, and is understood to have identified 300 young people who have been subjected to grooming and abuse between 1999 and 2014. All have been spoken to by police or social services.
However, it is feared that the figure may be just the tip of the iceberg.
The ‘M’ word and the ‘R’ word are not mentioned here (the euphemism ‘Asian’ to hide these men behind upright Sikhs and Hindus is) – and abuse is not exclusive to the ‘M’ group, nor neglect exclusive to those to fear the ‘R’ word – but I believe this will prove to be a factor.

Wherever there is a Mohammedan colony of any appreciable size, anywhere in Britain, I would guess that this sort of vileness has been going on.
And I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if it should suddenly turn out that similar things were going on in Auburn or Lakemba or other significantly-Islamised parts of Australia, though I think that the local police and officialdom and care agencies may not have been as heavily infiltrated/ compromised/ corrupted as they have been in many parts of the UK. Yet.
