PIZZAGATE: WESTMINSTER
Former politicians, police and security services are to be summoned before a new inquiry into alleged child sex abuse “involving people of public prominence associated with Westminster”.
Starting today, the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) is to examine allegations of historic coverups, conspiracies and a tolerance for paedophilia in the highest levels of government.
MI5, Scotland Yard, former ministers, MPs, party whips and peers are among witnesses to be called over three weeks of hearings.
A spokesperson for IICSA said it will be examining “whether Westminster institutions, including political parties, government departments, law enforcement or intelligence agencies, have failed or are still failing to protect children from sexual abuse”.
Police investigations, charging decisions, political parties, the honours system and the Paedophile Information Exchange (PIE), a British pro-paedophile activist group which openly lobbied parliament in the 1970s, are all within the inquiry’s remit.
A former Home Office consultant is to give evidence on allegations PIE received public money, and the inquiry will also hear claims that police seized a supposed dossier of VIP paedophiles drawn up by late Labour peer Barbara Castle in the 1980s.
Hearings will examine whether “political parties turned a blind eye to allegations of inhouse child sexual abuse, or whether there were attempts to cover up such allegations”.
They will also look at allegations police officers were “warned off” investigating prominent paedophiles, and suggestions that party whips sought to use the claims for their own advantage.

Did you hear about that R Kelly shit where he talked about a whole bunch of people havin’ better access to his money than he did? I’m Putin’ it in this thread because of some of what that guy’s accused of, but man, I don’t know about the accusations. Man says he doesn’t know how to hogtie someone and that sounds embarrassing enough to be real; who nowadays doesn’t know how to tie a gal up for some fun? Not even always gals, either. S’yeah… Thing is, a whole buncha people having their hands in his kitty treatin’ him like the Black Bank of New Slavery though, that sounds real too. I believe in that bit even more’n I believe he doesn’t how to tie anyone up. Maybe it ain’t so hot to be a celeb; maybe they’re being exploited and held to bad behavior on an’ or-else basis, y’hear?
The right used to smack down every expression of idealism. “That’s not how the world works,” “nobody will go for that,” and “you shouldn’t get ideas above your station,” were tools of abusive right-wingers to stop people who threatened to make the world a happier place despite them. The only acceptable idealisms were the right’s holy sanctimonies.
Then… they learned better! That shit stopped. The right started looking forward to a changing world with real energy.
Around that time the left started learning to treat idealism as a command. Every favorable sentiment was met with world-weary cynicism, outright rebuke, or histrionic spite. These tools were deployed against anyone who threatened to make the world a happier place despite them.
They were worse than the right, because even uttering their canned sanctimonies was not acceptable. Everyone was to know good was hopeless and only angry unhappy fearful people huddling in “safety” were tolerable.
That was the power that made Pizzagate sociologically inevitable. The far right is pathetic, but hostility to kindness doesn’t work either.
