L to r…Rowen, Smith, ginger bloke
The Slog: For those of you who haven’t yet seen it, the good old Rochdale local
press has run a GMP ‘denial’ of having closed the Cyril Smith case.
Emerging from the very obviously inept facial orifice of Detective Chief
Superintendent Mary Doyle of GMP, it runs (my emphases):
“To say that we have abandoned our investigation into allegations
concerning the late Sir Cyril Smith is misleading and inaccurate. From
the outset, we have always stressed that if anybody wished to come forward and make a complaint, GMP would record this to
recognise the abuse that victim has suffered. We have publicly said
just how important it is for victims that any such abuse is recognised
because as Sir Cyril Smith is deceased, no criminal prosecution can be
brought against him. Since last year, we have only had a very small
number of people come forward to report any abuse by Sir Cyril Smith*,
and we have had no new reports since then. We are still actively
investigating the incidents reported to us.”
Ah yes, Greater Manchester Police, their motto: ‘You detect the
crime, so we don’t have to’.
Said a former officer this lunchtime, “I think the Exaro reporter was saying that the enquiry is basically dormant, and I think he’s right. All DCS Doyle has done is confirm that. People who think the police don’t take this sort of thing seriously enough will probably have had that impression strengthened.” The * above is my childish joke suggesting that, as he’s dead, not very likely that any new abuses of bottoms of Cyril would be coming to light, ho-ho.

My more serious point would be rather more specific: the GMP
investigation had been, I understand, leading to links with other
similar criminal activity involving other suspects. DCS Doyle needs to
explain why that evidence of related crime hasn’t been followed up. So
once more, the sorry folk who have awarded themselves the eternally
frustrating job of baiting the guilty and their protectors with Rumour
& Innuendo must start off some more. You never know, it might
kick-start another investigation.
For example, type Cyril Smith into Google, and you will be told that
‘other people’ searched for by Cyril Smith watchers include Simon
Danczuk, Jeremy Thorpe, Paul Rowen, David Steel and Jimmy Savile.
‘Second police probe ordered into Rochdale child grooming scandal’ reported the Manchester Evening News
a month ago, adding, ‘Greater Manchester Police have been reviewing
their original probe into child sex abuse allegations in the town five
years ago’. Must’ve been another one they closed until harrassed into
opening it again. Simon Danczuk is the Labour MP who bagged Smith’s old
seat at the 2010 election when Liberal Democrat Paul Rowen lost.
Speaking to the MEN, Dynamic Danczuk said, “Lessons have been learned,”
[Chestnut of the Century Winner, 1845] “There’s no complacency on the
part of police about these horrific crimes and I’m confident every
effort is being made to get these predators off our streets”. Great
stuff there Sime, we’re really thrilled that you’re confident. Labour,
you friend in tough times. We don’t want any of Labour’s blind eye to
Islamic grooming in the constituency’s Town Hall coming to light, now do
we?
Paul Rowen held the Seat of Dead Cyril for just five years. He is a
religious man, a catholic educated in strict schools and himself a
former teacher at Catholic schools until his election in 2005. Mr Rowen
has never married.
In 2009, he was obliged to give the following explanation to a local campaigning website:
“I’ve been very lucky over the last few months to have had a number of
young people from Rochdale working as interns in both my London office
and in Rochdale. These have included Natassa Malik whose father is a
good friend of Sir Cyril Smith, Adam Barber who is the son of my GP, and
Tom Barlow who is studying A Levels at Oldham Six Form College”.
Rowen has always, together with his political agent Dave Hennigan,
made great play of his religious Irish connection. Says a local source,
“Rowen know all about the allegations against [Smith] at the Cambridge
House hostel. He never lifted a finger about it.” In fact, the
anti-Rowen camp in Rochdale hammered on at his abuse of expenses and
“spanking ardour”, while cracking near the knuckle gags about castrating
him – “but not the chemical cocktail linked to scurrilous rumours about
Cyril Smith post-Cambridge House allegations and police
investigations”.
Jeremy Thorpe, of course, needs no introduction as the man who bit
pillows, had dogs shot, and was unusually close to Sailor Ted…with whom
he nearly formed a Government in 1974. Jimmy Savile had form for well
let’s not bother, we’ll be here all day….and then there’s David Steel.
As the effervescent and ever-trenchant Needleblog site
attests, Diddy David was rather fractious and thin-skinned on the
subject of Big Cyril. He wrote to Private Eye saying that ‘the story
about Cyril Smith posed a number of reasonable questions which I should
like to answer: “In 1974 Steel was chief whip – was he really not told
about the Smith police files?” The answer is “no”. “By March 1977 he was
leader of the Liberal Party – were the Smith files still not brought to
his attention?” The answer again is “no”. You say that in 1979 the
Rochdale Alternative Paper (sic) “had a plethora of sworn
statements from the victims.” Well if so, you did not include those in
your report that year (which was all I ever heard of the matter) and nor
did they send these to me.’
Harrumph, harrumph. Needdleblog’s addendum question seems to me
entirely apt: ‘then why is it, despite your complete ignorance of any
complaint of any conduct against Cyril Smith, that your press office,
when you were leader of the Liberal Party stated in response to the
Rochdale Alternative Press and the Private Eye articles in April 1979
that; “It’s not a very friendly gesture, publishing that. All he seems
to have done is spank a few bare bottoms”.
Oh right, is that all?
Anyway DCS Mary Doyle Sister of Grace goodluckgoodluck, even if the
Irish blarney still applies in Rochdale, seems to me there’s enough raw
material (and nerves) in the above scurrilous dot-joining to start
wearing out some leather on the case. Ah, the slap of Leather on
Pavement, and Patrick O’Pavement screaming for more….

And German Greens reveal paedophile history repeating itself
The Slog: A Mancunian male claiming to be a victim of sexual abuse by
Cyril Smith emailed The Slog just before Monday lunchtime to allege that
Greater Manchester Police had been “warned off” further investigation
of the late MP’s activities by what he described as “senior cops &
filthy pol bullies worried that their little habits might be outed” as a
result of recent progress made by GMP.While one must remember that, as a bloke who’s been blogging about this cesspit for over six years now, I tend to be a lightning conductor for everything from the genuine article to the fantasist fame-seeking nutter. But what intrigued me about this email was the syntax: it’s typical of the aggression still harboured after many years by paedophilia victims.
It may well have been evoked by the Exaro site’s revelation that the Cyril Smith investigation was to be dropped. It may be a false flag, attention-seeking, or myriad other all-too-common online syndromes. But in some ways, this marks a turning point in the Establishment’s ‘response’ to Britain’s systemic paedophile issue. Unfortunately, it’s a turn into a cul-de-sac, not a new avenue.
It seems that now even extinct minority-Party politicians are too hot to handle. Perhaps we need a new media sitcom, Drop the Dead Cyril. Give Plod some BBC-employed celebs to go at, and he’s like a rabid dog with a bone. Give the Boys in Blue a member of the protected élite species to investigate, and after much kicking, dragging, screaming and promising, they will confiscate victim support evidence and – when all else fails – start investigating each other. Thus the investigation becomes an incestigation, and after that everyone loses interest because Posh Beckham is up the duff again.
I made some further enquiries of my ancestral City yesterday (Greater Manchester Police do have what bobbies used to call ‘form’ at covering up stuff) but thus far it’s led nowhere. That’s probably exactly what it’s supposed to do.
But we needn’t worry, because cunning paedo-networks using standard methods to hide their light under a bushel are just madcap conspiracy theories blended with rumour, innuendo, and left-wing poppycock aren’t they? Of course they are children: the globalised kid-buggery industry is a myth, now go back to sleep, it was just a nasty dream invented by troublemakers who used to be in care. “Weirdos” as David Mellor called them.
Except that breaking news in Germany would suggest otherwise.
Germany’s opposition Greens party has decided to appoint an independent enquiry designed to shed light on the influence a pro-paedophilia group had within the party in the 1980s, Party leader Jürgen Trittin (left) told the Berlin media yesterday. The advocates of legalising sex with children were part of a group also pushing for gay, lesbian and transsexual rights in the early days of the party that grew out of the 1970s peace, anti-nuclear and ecologist movements.
Any of this sound familiar?
The trail predictably goes back to 1985, when a regional conference of German Greens argued strongly for sex with children to be legalised. And latching onto the story, Der Spiegel alleged that the Green’s leadership in that decade had also financed a working group in favour of legalising sex between adults and children.
“Protecting children from sexual abuse was and remains a central concern,” Spiegel Online quoted Green Party co-chairman Cem Ozdemir as saying. More face-saving platitudes, but you can bet your jackboots that the other German Parties will quickly start airbrushing, shredding and otherwise generally rewriting history.
Stay tuned. Another story of perverted sadism in the senior ranks may be about to break.
