ALISTAIR User ID: 26907527 United Kingdom 11/03/2012 07:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Newsnight fails to name Tory who was part of paedophile ring BBC's Newsnight has sensationally claimed that a 'leading politician from the Thatcher years' was embroiled in a widespread paedophile ring - and repeatedly raped boys from a children's home. Alleged victim Steven Messham told reporters he was raped 'more than a dozen times' by the man, described on the programme as a 'shadowy figure of high public standing'. But despite a string of damning allegations, Newsnight reporters said it didn't have 'enough evidence' to name the politician, sparking angry claims on Twitter that the Beeb 'bottled it'.

You have my name bitch. Anyhoo I'd put money on ITV slipping the name before the end of next week. The tory government oversaw the destruction of Murdochs empire, that cunts going to be rubbing his paws at this prospect. He even has the name of the victiam. The BBC really can't afford to chuck any more shit into this whole story as they are at the heart if it. Ahh, zio-shill media and the rulers of our realm. Swear to God, if a member of the royal family is brought into this prevalent circle of noncerey I'm going to lead a prole revolution, Royals, politicians and billionaires up against the wall. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1176602 They are not just making claims, they have someone there who has made the claim, if it is broadcast by the BBC, they will not be liable, as they could easily claim that they where not aware that the person being interviewed was going to name the person. Also, the BBC are now required to make this name known to the police, and the police in turn will have to make it public. At that stage, there should be a public hanging off this bastard. |

So the clues we have are a Senior politician from Wales, who was in Thatcher's government ..? |
