I simply have no words that describe the bravery and       courage of these women who have come forward.              No words.              What they have been through is indescribable.              It has been a life-changing experience for me. I never thought such evil       was possible. Never. Not here, in Britain. In our towns, in our       communities. It is pure evil. These men are so utterly depraved.              If it were up to me, thousands of them would receive the death penalty.              To do what they did, on such an industrial scale, to innocent young       girls - many of whom were already in such an incredibly vulnerable       place? There is no redemption possible. The world is a better place       without them in it.              I started this inquiry because so many others failed.              Speaking honestly, I did not understand how deep this evil is rooted in       our society.              Police, politicians, council officials, the NHS, social workers,       children’s homes - it is everywhere.              IS everywhere. Not was. IS.              Meeting these women, and men, listening to how severely they were failed       by those tasked to protect them? My views have changed forever. I knew       it was bad. I never knew how bad it was.              Every single one who has come forward is a hero in my view.              The courage and grace in how they have conducted themselves is unlike       anything I have seen in my life. All because they don’t want others to       suffer the same fate. That is an extraordinary sacrifice. They could       have just moved on with their lives. Tried to forget. But no, they chose       to do this. I am in awe of all of them.              Our hearings will finish tomorrow, following the contribution of three       more expert witnesses.              Then the next stage begins. We will produce a report, and then we will       seek to put people in prison. There are FAR more testimonies and       evidence to release - this will keep coming and coming and coming.              Even with a media blackout, we have reached tens of millions. We have       made real progress.              And following such immense demand, we will reopen the portal so that       more women can tell their stories.              This is just the beginning.              Politicians from all parties have failed these girls, again and again       and again.              I do not intend to join that list.              To everyone who donated, thank you. To our team, thank you. And       especially to the survivors, thank you.              I believe that together we can start to make Britain understand what is       happening, and then finally do something about it."              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
