I cant remember for sure but I believe evidence of a verifiable nature was provided to you previous re the activities of the Labour Govt over the Iraq war ( it doesn't require a report/inquiry to be able to substantiate a claim) but you still went into hiding over them.
As stated previous it's truth on your terms, you seem almost oblivious to the notion that Labour have played silly re the Iraq war....even with your above post you still try to draw fire away from Labour/Blair by tarring others with the same brush.
You're a contradiction in all ways.
No, I won't dean.
Will you CONDEMN Harriet Harman and her equally nasty husband Dromy for their (founding, no less) part in PIE (mentioned in your link)?
No, of course you wont.
As Toots has said, you seem too selective in your choice of who to support in this and you seem to support the nasty people spreading vicious lies like your man Tom Watson. Perhaps he has been taking lessons in how to be a messianic prick from past master Bliar.
As my 'ol Gran used to say... them's none as blind as them who refuse t'see.
Actually Dean, you've not provided evidence in handwriting. You've provided a link to a Guardian article in which the newspaper applies its spin to the story.
Take a look at this link. Same story different newspaper
If you bother to read the link, you will see the following paragraph
'The new information appeared to undermine claims that the decision not to prosecute Hayman was part of an Establishment conspiracy to cover up child abuse'
So, which one is correct?
Even if Thatcher was part of a cover up, was she merely continuing a cover up began by the previous Labour Government? Hayman was first arrested in 1978 before Thatcher came to power.
You accuse others of being blind but you really want to believe that it is true due to your deep hatred for Thatcher. I wonder why The BBC hasn't picked up on this article?
"The file, compiled between October 1980 and March 1981, is made up of memos and background notes put together for Thatcher, then prime minister, and is littered with her handwritten notes, underlinings and crossings out. "
" Margaret Thatcher was adamant officials should not publicly name Sir Peter Hayman, a senior diplomat connected to a scandal, even after she had been fully briefed on his activities, examination of formerly secret papers released to the National Archives shows. "
It can't be any clearer to me. Yes it also says it was a full cover up by the establishment !! So who were the establishment in 1980/81 ?? As this unravels, you will see it wasn't Peter Hayman she was really bothered in protecting...it was because she knew where it would lead !! They had even tried to keep this file beyond the 30 year deadline...to try and hide it. The truth will out. I now have faith in the new head of the enquiry, as she is fully independent, and think you will find some big names will be shown to have be involved. And if everything is to be believed, we may even be looking the murder of children after abuse, incase they spoke out.
Norman tebbitt was one of Mrs thatchers great friends, and I think you can see here from his interview in the summer of last year...he knows what will be found;
Asked on the BBC's Andrew Marr programme if he thought there had been a political cover-up at the time, Tebbit said: "I think there may well have been. It was almost unconscious. It was the thing that people did."
This scandal will grow and snowball....mark my words !!!
Did you read the other article? There is no mention of Thatcher being adamant not to release Hayman's name in it. Is what you quoted a Guardian journalist's spin?
The Telegraph article actually publishes a handwritten memo from Thatcher to Sir Michael Havers in which she wrote 'So that there be no doubt, I leave to your judgment whether or not you are interviewed on media or TV about the Hayman matter.” this memo is dated 20 March 1981. Does that sound like a cover up?
Who was in power when Hayman was first arrested in 1978?
yes...I can read...it says as you have quoted a cover up in 1980/81 by the establishment...please tell me who you actually think that is then !! He was arrested in late 1978 but it wasn't until 1980 that it was brought to the attention of any government minister. That is also listed !!
You know as well as I do..as well as Norman Tebbitt does...that cabinet names will come forth and be shown to be part of an organised abuse ring. I am sure MP's from all parties will actually be named. However the question will be, why was it hushed up, and covered up. I will await the findings of the judicial review....but I hope IF and yes its an IF a cover up is found, then you will join me in the Condemnation of those involved.
Are you sure you can read? Where have I quoted and where in the Telegraph article does it say that there was a cover up in 1980/81?
come on Max ...you ain't that daft....you can read between the lines.... over 110 documents go missing...documents are held longer than 30 years...Norman Tebbitt himself says there may of been a cover up....but it was done to protect the establishment...you know where this is leading and what the outcome will be.
Personally my only hope in this matter, is that it is not as bad as some would have it, and we don't find that Murders of innocent children were due to the actions of MP'S and Ministers. I have little doubt myself that, we will find a ring did exist and that very prominent people were involved.
If I am wrong and the report states no sex abuse ever occurred, and there was nothing to cover up...I will come on here and unreservedly apologise and say I got it wrong !!
If I an right and report shows there was an organised ring operating and that Mrs Thatcher knew about it and choose to ignore it.....will you come on here and condemn her and say that such actions and attitudes are abhorrent ???
Ah,so you're reading into it what you want to read. Says it all!
answer the question....I will abide by the independent enquiry and apologise if wrong.
Will you condemn those involved and say the actions are abhorrent if a ring is found to have operated !!
easy enough question ??
and yes ....I was laughed at when I said the weight of evidence against Jimmy Saville would show he was guilty. I was told it was all rubbish and a figment of my imagination. there again, maybe you still think he is innocent as well !!!
Read back through the thread. I've already answered that question previously.
no I would never google that as such like searches are registered !!
It shows the level you have sunk to, that you would suggest that any MP of any party would advocate changing the law for the age if consent to be lowered to 12.
GNV...your recent comments do not become of man of your intelligence. We all have differences of opinion, else the world would be boring place, but I'm sorry to say your recent comments fall below a standard of decency.
Toots....what a laugh....you seen the letter where she underlines....don't release his name !! Is that hearsay...is that conjecture.
And yes...I do have a strong dislike of Mrs thatcher....not exactly on my own hear am I. The most unpopular politician in recorded history during her premiership. So much that her own party got rid of her !!
You still won't answer the question I have put to you numerous times !!
I have clearly said to you that will willing unreservedly to condemn any politician, including Tony Blair, if they are found to have done any wrong doing or deliberately covered anything up !!
I ask again.....I do believe looking back for the 5th time...
If Mrs thatcher is shown to have known and done nothing about a ring in Westminster, that is more than likely to have included some very close friends of her, and cabinet ministers in her government....will you then unreservedly Condemn her and her actions !!
Your silence so far...speaks volumes.
