The issue is, there is no other source. Everyone else who has reported on this, used the Sunday Mirror as their source.

If everyone else can trust the source, why can't VGChartz?

The BBC article on it says that the issue will be raised in Parliament and the local MP wants an independent inquiry. It's not new information to West Mercia Police and they're taking it very seriously.

See, that would've been a great article to start off the thread. Calm, collected, having more sources than just one and correctly separating what is claim and what is fact. It's refreshing to have an article that doesn't use the victims as a political playball to push a certain agenda.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

What agenda are you talking about here?

It's being used as an excuse to dismiss hard reality so it doesn't have to addressed. The lazy asses can google it if they don't like the source.

The issue is, there is no other source. Everyone else who has reported on this, used the Sunday Mirror as their source.

They wouldn't use them as a source if they were lying about it. There's a ton of sources on grooming gangs in the UK in general. The left leaning sources are as objective as the right leaning ones.

Can't say I am surprised.

Rape cultures do exist, just not where the media tells you to look at (video games, college campuses).

So, because children get sexually abused, that somehow means that women on college campuses cannot?

If you were familiar with the Mirror you'd understand how ridiculous it is to accuse them of an anti-muslim/anti-asian/anti-pakistani agenda. Are you aware that the BBC covered up decades of child rape and sexual assault by their own celebrity employees?
