Labour’s creepy obsession with Adolescence

Jacob Reynolds on the spiked podcast.

This is a watershed moment in British politics and nobody on the Right seems to have twigged. Any politician who sweeps the grooming gang issue, yet again, under the carpet, is basically a monster. Even the ones who choose to silent, their silence makes them complicit in this monstrosity. This is the time that someone should be making a list of those people, and publicizing it. Come next election, it will be on the conscience of the voters, to choose between those who sat there and let this continue, and those who at least spoke out publicly. This is a basic test of character.

They thought it was adolescents and got all excited

That's the calibre of our PM, he thinks it's a documentary.

"Three Girls" aired years ago and there was nothing from the Government that I recall but Adolescence features the right "target" demographic for Labour. White, working class young men. "Three Girls" (based on what really happened) had the wrong victim/ perpetrator demographics... Grooming of this particular type has been going on for decades, it was even around in the early 80's when I was a teenager. The fact that it is still going on is a national disgrace. The fact that it's appeared in other countries in Europe was inevitable.

Pity the don’t talk about what it’s based on

And only if there was a connection between the two..

Current Oz PM Albanese is now saying this work of fiction should be watched in all schools ! He has never had an original thought though, so no surprise.

What do you mean “there will be no lessons in school on grooming gangs”?
