Westminster ‘chumocracy’ has protected itself from paedophile revelations, claims Cameron’s advisor on child abuse
By TOM MCTAGUE, MAIL ONLINE DEPUTY POLITICAL EDITOR
David Cameron’s advisor on child abuse has lashed out at the Westminster ‘chumocracy’ that has protected itself from allegations of paedophilia.
Tory junior minister Claire Perry said Parliament was full of ‘too many people with the same interests and the same out-of-touch sense of entitlement coming together to protect their own’.
Her damning remarks come amid allegations that a paedophile network was operating in Westminster and was being protected by senior politicians.
Home Secretary Theresa May this week launched an inquiry into organisations including churches, the security services and the BBC.
A separate review will also examine the failures in Westminster to properly investigate allegations of sexual abuse.
