LIBERAL CATHOLIC CHURCH OF SAINT STEPHENS REACTS TO COMMONS VOTE ON NATIONAL INQUIRY INTO GROOMING GANGS...
The Liberal Catholic Church of Saint Stephens tonight has voiced its opposition and disapproval the House of Commons in the United Kingdom has voted against a National inquiry into grooming gangs.
It is our belief that an inquiry In stating that we need to be 'racially sensitive' with regard to this dreadfully sad and damaging issue places far more emphasis on the suggested needs of the perpetrators, whilst totally disregarding the feelings of the victims/survivors of these disgusting and life altering crimes against THE most vulnerable members of our communities;
innocent children, as is pandering to (on this occasion) misguided political correctness as of more importance than discovering the truth.
Any democratic, citizen-centred government MUST put the protection of its citizens at the centre of everything they do in our names. This vote simply does not.
An inquiry, free of political pressure mist be launched and members of the public should be able to freely come forward to give evidence to such an inquiry.
We will continue to call for an inquiry and support other groups that call for any inquiry.
