What would you do if you thought a child was being abused? Phone the police? Contact the social services department of your local authority? Or phone the Home Office and ask to be put through to Theresa May?
Before this week I think the answer to that question would be fairly obvious. Now I’m not so sure.
As we speak our government is on the hunt for paedophiles. It’s looking for them in the hospitals. In the broadcast media. The church. Among the judiciary. Our government is even hunting them within the government.
At the same time, Ministers have embarked on a hunt for the people who did not hunt the paedophiles. Apparently, there is a “magic file” in which all the paedophiles are named. Or at least some of the more high-profile ones. Or at least, we think they’re high profile. We don’t know for sure, because the file has gone missing. Why? Who made it vanish? Our government wants an answer.
Or does it? It’s emerged that the woman the Government has appointed Paedo-Finder General may herself be implicated in the “establishment cover-up” of these horrific crimes. Well, we don’t know if there have actually been any crimes. And therefore we don’t know if there’s been any cover-up. But they’re bound to be horrific none the less.
You see, Elizabeth Butler-Sloss’s brother – the former Attorney General – once failed to prosecute an infamous “establishment” paedophile by the name of Peter Haymen. Haymen was an “establishment paedophile”, as opposed to just an ordinary paedophile, because he worked for MI6. And Butler-Sloss’s brother let him off scot-free, on the spurious grounds there wasn’t enough evidence to stand up the case in a court of law. Which apparently raises questions about his sister’s independence.
Though not in the eyes of her nephew, the actor Nigel Havers, who has today claimed his aunt is herself the victim of “politically motivated” smears.
