forget DEI for Disney and DEI for TV adverts. let's get real. let's go for DEI for sex trafficking. DEI of victims. and DEI of perpetrators #allchildrenmatter #nochildleftbehind

@dyershand he had more money than the other two. she wanted him because he was the 'cool bad boy'. now she's claiming arshid was a holy guy who targeted her because she wasn't a muslim. it's all so tiresome

The Samantha Woodhouse / Arshid Hussain thing was a case of a precocious, very early-developing 14-year-old girl seeking out and CHOOSING for herself - after two fully consummated sexual relationships with older white drug dealers - a 24-year-old boyfriend with even more "dark triad" appeal than her two previous ones. Not exactly a relationship to be recommended and emulated, I'll admit, but really nothing that - prior to the wave of psychotic woke neo-puritanism that's swept over the world in the past ten years - would have struck anyone as more than just somewhat "cringe" on Hussain's part. For fifty years we've been able to go to the cinema and admire the beauty of a relationship with just this age difference - and likewise a romantic "partnership in crime" - in Terence Malick's loved and praised movie "Badlands". Just very recently Paul Thomas Anderson also made a universally acclaimed movie with just this age difference, only the genders reversed. Woodhouse was never beaten - or at least received no more slaps than any other girl running around robbing post offices and other drug dealers with her gangster boyfriend as a rule receives - never trafficked and never forced to have sex against her will. As far as she was concerned, during the whole two years that she spent with Hussain, he was just her boyfriend in the normal sense of the term. That he was "trafficking" countless other girls during the years they were together was a fact completely unknown to her - and indeed, if the account she gives of these years in her 2017 memoir is even close to being true, it seems unlikely that it was a fact at all. She recounts that she spent an enormous amount of time in his company in the years 2000-2001 and it is frankly impossible to imagine that he was "running" other girls in this period unbeknownst to her. In any case, all this is set down, black on white, in the 2017 memoir - that she was never raped, never coerced and never beaten - yet she feels she can get away with giving an account that directly contradicts this to an audience of tens of thousands on the Michael Knowles Show. This is the point we have reached.

@Laocailarry she's not. she's laughing at how DUMB the report is. which, i have to say, is pretty dumb. i was laughing harder yesterday. right-wingers should try becoming smart.

You can admit this woman as a obnoxious vile bitch and not be a Restoretard - it’s okay

@southlondonjohn @TiffanyFong the report is such trash, it's insane

@TiffanyFong MSM have been covering the story since 2011

Why am I not seeing mainstream news coverage on the 250,000 girls raped by migrants in the UK? I only know about this through 𝕏.

@SteLeoM9 @getstuffedtwit @TwoTierTruth shut the fuck up, stephen

@getstuffedtwit @TwoTierTruth They render it meaningless ? really ? You cold sick fuck

Restore Britains Rape Gang Inquiry Firstly it isn’t an investigation. It’s a rushed, error strewn political stunt cooked up by Rupert Lowe and his party to exploit the industrial scale rape, torture and trafficking of British girls for their own gain. A basic schoolboy level mistake in the video like trafficked across county lines. County lines are phone lines used in drug dealing, not geographic borders. You cannot traffic children across them. That howler exposes the entire document as amateur hour junk sloppy, lazy and clearly not written by people who understand the crimes they claim to expose. This isn’t justice for the victims. It’s grift and opportunism. Restore Britain has turned one of the worst scandals in modern British history into campaign material and donor fuel. Survivors deserved rigorous, professional work not this half arsed pamphlet rushed out to boost a political brand. The laughter isn’t mockery of the victims. It’s the sound of someone calling out blatant incompetence and political exploitation. Restore Britain delivered theatre, not truth. And they got caught.

@UKRRUSNews 600,000 GBP

How did this grooming gang assessment cost? I could have produced it for free.

@SharonMorr90146 what is it?

@romillyknower Everyone knows what a grooming gang is

can someone please define 'grooming gang' for me? ((some people)) quit the inquiry because the scope was going to be expanded to all group-based CSE and THEY wanted it to be ONLY about 'grooming gangs'. but this is a phrase no one really understands. what is a grooming gang?

✴️ FEELINGS OVER FACTS ✴️ The Rape Gang Inquiry Report lacks serious credibility as a rigorous, objective, or authoritative inquiry. It functions primarily as a political advocacy document rather than a neutral fact-finding exercise. Here are my findings. - It is a private, self-appointed project chaired by a sitting MP with strong, pre-existing views on immigration, multiculturalism, and the specific issues covered. It has no statutory powers, no government backing, no independent panel of experts or judges, and no ability to compel witnesses or evidence. Official inquiries (e.g., Jay Report, Telford Inquiry) operate under formal terms of reference with legal authority; this one does not. - Crowdfunded by a self-selecting donor base. Raised £600k from over 20,000 donors explicitly framed as British patriots. This creates obvious selection bias and incentive problems. Transparency exists on the associated website, but funding from aligned supporters undermines claims of neutrality. - Heavy reliance on speculative and disputed national extrapolations. The headline claim of at least 250,000 victims since the 1950s originates from loose extrapolations by Lord Pearson (House of Lords, 2018–2019) scaling up Rotherham figures. Independent analyses (e.g., Full Fact) have repeatedly flagged this as methodologically weak and unsupported by comprehensive data. Official sources consistently note poor national recording and avoid such precise high-end totals. The report presents it as established fact. - Theological causation claims exceed the evidence. Sections attributing the phenomenon primarily to the Influence of Islam (citing specific Quranic verses, hadiths, supremacism doctrines, etc.) represent ideological interpretation rather than empirical criminological analysis. Official inquiries identify cultural attitudes, clan networks, misogyny, and opportunity structures in certain communities as key factors. They do not frame core Islamic theology as the driver. This overreach shifts the document from inquiry to polemic. - Selective focus and lack of balance. Strong emphasis on one perpetrator demographic (Pakistani Muslim men) in group-based CSE, while giving minimal weight to data limitations, other offender groups, broader child sexual exploitation patterns, or countervailing evidence. Official reviews acknowledge overrepresentation in specific prosecuted cases but stress poor data quality and the risks of overgeneralisation. The report's framing amplifies one narrative. - Advocacy tone and emotive language. Mixes formal report structure with highly charged rhetoric ("evil," "demonic chapter," "barbarism," calls for maximum penalties including death in places). Political accusations against named figures (e.g., Starmer, Khan) are presented in accusatory terms rather than balanced analysis of institutional failures documented in prior reports. - Anonymised, untested testimonies with no adversarial process — Survivor and whistleblower accounts are powerful and consistent with known cases, but they are anonymised and collected in a non-statutory setting without cross-examination, corroboration requirements, or legal safeguards typical of official inquiries or criminal proceedings. This limits verifiability. - No independent verification or peer review. It draws on existing public inquiries and media but adds its own scaling and interpretive layers without external methodological scrutiny. Claims of 149 districts and nationwide patterns since the 1950s rest on compilation rather than new rigorous fieldwork. Bottom line: The report has value in amplifying survivor voices on a genuinely serious and historically mishandled. However, its methodological weaknesses, partisan leadership and funding, speculative statistics, and ideological framing mean it does not meet the standards of a serious, credible inquiry. It is best read as a political intervention rather than a definitive or neutral source.

@lporiginalg @deportjeets report still sucks

@deportjeets @romillyknower Ayooo!

@ollieparrot @eatadickfarage what do you make of the CSE perpetrated by Irish paramilitaries in NI?

@eatadickfarage Operationally, it should be treated as a criminal enterprise. Homing in on the Islamic dimension is unlikely to achieve results.

@eatadickfarage @ollieparrot all bullshit

And to elaborate further on the religious influences driving who the gangs saw as legitimate targets. These are my own views, I haven't yet reached the part of Lowe's report where these arguments are made, it's heavy reading going through the testimonies, I'm taking it slow. Islam starkly divides the world into muslim and non-muslim, dar-al-Islam and dar-al-harb. The protections of peace and decency detailed in the quran and sunnah are heavily weighted towards intra-faith political relations, whereas the acceptable limits of conduct against non-muslims are considerably less constrained and allow what we would consider today to be war crimes and genocide. Islam dehumanises and emphasises the inferior status of non-muslims. The basic word for a non-believer, kuffar, is itself a pejorative term. Let's not pretend that 1400 years of othering those outside the religion doesn't contibute to the lack of empathy required to commit the crimes we are discussing. In Islamic jurisprudence, during conflict muslims cannot be taken as slaves, the rules of engagement are strictly regulated, bloodshed is to be avoided, wealth and property cannot be permanently taken. Conversely non-muslims can be enslaved, the women can be raped, bloodshed is permitted and at times encouraged, property can be taken. Yes, classical Islam allows these actions only under a state of war, so it's quite possible to make an argument that acting this way outside of limited scenarios is forbidden under Islamic theology and jurisprudence, however you can also argue that some of the final, most violent quranic revelations abrogated all earlier peace between muslims and non-muslims, and set the institution of Islam on a permanent state of war with the rest of the world. The Islamic conquests certainly suggest this interpretation was the accepted consensus of the time, and given the prohibition of bid'ah and Mohammed's status as the final prophet, there's no way for any kind of reformation to put that toothpaste back in the tube. The hijab acts to protect a woman's modesty (and more specifically the honour of her mahram), and to signal the purity of the woman and place her spiritually and physically off-limits. Conversely we know the rape gangs saw the non-muslim girls as promiscuous or 'asking for it' because they were unveiled or non-virgins. Morally debasing these girls by virtue of their religion was a critical step in everything that took place. Indeed we see similar sexual abuses with theological justification across the world, well outside baradari clan networks. Harrowing reports exist of the wholesale rape of female protesters in Iran, there are fatwas endorsing it published in national newspapers. The rapists call the women ghana'em, literally war booty, emphasising the doctrinal legality of sexual crime. I have no need to rehash the stories of what ISIS did to yazidi girls with the same theological justification. I will emphasise all of these actions are to an extent a twisted form of Islam. But as far as Islam itself is a big old mess of contradictory and half-baked commands and stories, it it easy to see this horrifying interpretation as valid as any other. So again, downplaying the role of religion in favour of a more sociological explanation is to do a disservice to the truth. I don't think you are doing this by design and I welcome your very perspicacious addition to the debate, but don't throw the baby with the bathwater.

@tsundokkuma that's the spirit!

@romillyknower in the course of your meltdown you've dropped some decent ideas. We should get a professional data-scientist on board and map the paki rape gangs out properly

The report was released. It's so bad I think it's a joke. I mean, I'm sure to the targeted demographic, this is probably the most intelligent thing they've ever read in their entire life, but it's such a MEME from an academic point of view I'm starting to think Rupert's a troll

@Stevnage75328 @grace_hawthorn @DavidPGCSE what's it trying to do?

@grace_hawthorn @DavidPGCSE The woman in *that* video focused on "county lines" The thread slates it for not being an academic study with statistical rigour Neither deals with the Report in terms of what it was trying to do, which is I think what you're focusing on - hence my interest in your take

Sorry girls, methodology was off so you'll just have to put up with it

@grace_hawthorn @BradfemlyWalsh i think the report is offensive to the survivors who were edited out of it. like the pakistani ones ... and most of the survivors of all the other gangs

@BradfemlyWalsh how was this space left for the Tommy-2-names & the Rupert Lowes to exploit? how was this allowed to happen? it's yet another monumental betrayal of survivors. beyond 2nd wound, and devastating.

Attitudes like this was why I chose to not go into academia in my 20s. There's a form of intellectual grooming to try to get clever young women like myself to be sneerily dismissive of the suffering of ordinary women and kids just to prove their worth to snooty, lefty men. GTFO.

@Simon_Cleret i'm not, you idiot

@romillyknower Defending the rape gangs is probably not the smartest move you've ever done, m8.

@SmorglesBord still a crap report

@romillyknower Your comments raise an important question: what if it’s not only Muslims who must be removed from British society?

@cognitofalcon the entire report was a political gotcha

@romillyknower So what's your point? Are you more concerned with political gotcha games? Or are you concerned about the victims? Because you put all your energy into pedantic gotcha games. You put your energy into academic jargon and hide behind it like a high and mighty arbiter of truth.

@cognitofalcon the report was ridiculous dribble, tbh

@romillyknower You post paragraphs of ridoculous dribble to attempt to cast 250,000 vivtims' testimony into extreme doubt and skepticism. Your flippant tone is disrespectful.

@FrannyRocket you've not explained why a report claiming a network doesn't provide evidence for a network

@romillyknower Your complaints are meaningless. I've explained why, but it's above your paygrade to understand.

@FrannyRocket why?

@romillyknower No.
