> Seriously? Do you have a source on that documentation?
It's in the Jay report (http://www.rotherham.gov.uk/downloads/file/1407/independent_inquiry_cse_in_rotherham http://www.rotherham.gov.uk/downloads/file/1407/independent_...):
By far the majority of perpetrators were described as 'Asian' by victims, yet throughout the entire
period, councillors did not engage directly with the Pakistani-heritage community to discuss how
best they could jointly address the issue. Some councillors seemed to think it was a one-off problem,
which they hoped would go away. Several staff described their nervousness about identifying the
ethnic origins of perpetrators for fear of being thought racist; others remembered clear direction
from their managers not to do so.
> So if "nobody" even tried, why is the left at fault? Wouldn't be "everybody" at fault?
Nobody in the left tried is what I mean, not nobody in general. Parts of the right did try, but they get dismissed as far-right loonies (apparently the rational thing to do about this is to not care, and memory-hole it?).
> the justice system deals with such things. Not politics or the media or twitter.
This would be ideal, but the justice system dealt with it only after decades, thousands of victims, and even some murders. This was a massive government failure that has been memory-holed, and you seem to believe it's some kind of non-event.
