This is fking grim as in doesn't get much worse

Labour MP arrested on suspicion of rape and child sex offences

Held on suspicion of misconduct in public office too thought that's obviously secondary to the far more serious reasons for his arrest.

Released on bail unlike people who said nasty things on twitter. Clownworld.

He's not been charged.

It may be worth looking at the facts rather than trying to shoehorn a tiresome agenda in every post.

So arrested but not yet charged. https://www.lbc.co.uk/crime/dan-norris-labour-mp-a...

Will the same amount of vitriol be poured out against this piece of slime that is apparent on the piece of slime that is Brand thread? Let's see.

Mr Norris is a former Labour minister who outed Jacob Rees-Mogg at last year’s General Election.

Wait...what?

His brother was a teacher who was "advised to leave" over similar activities. Allegedly.

From the news article offences go from 2000s to the 2020s an the victim is being looked after by specialist officers. This is part of a long term investigation.

He is fked

He’s innocent until proven guilty, so all we can be sure of is that IF he’s found guilty then - given he’s a Labour MP and we live under a two tier justice system - he’ll get a very light sentence, just like Mike Amesbury.

As if the Labour party couldn't get any worse.

Using this to score political points is grim but unsurprising, it’s likely there are some victims having undergone something horrific and all some weirdos care about is cheap comments about politics.

Absolutely doldrums of society on NP&E.

Local to me. Always thought he was a bit of a creap/slimeball.
Hopefully he is guilty so he wont be on the local news much longer.

It is becoming increasingly obvious why Labour don't want an inquiry into organised child rape gangs.

Well, according to some on the Marine le Pen thread as he is a politician he either shouldn't be charged in the first place, and/ or should stay an MP, as police and courts following the law is undemocratic = only the voters should judge at the ballot box and mustn't be denied the right to vote for a wrong 'un

I did wonder whether it would go that way but didn't expect it to do so quite so soon with the rubbish about Brand and grooming gangs.

It shows a complete lack of concern for the alleged victim but seeing the names involved I'm not surprised either.

He's been suspended and had the whip withdrawn so my assumption would be that he's done for and we're into what happens legally and whether he stands down as an MP - no charges yet and far as I'm aware no way to force him to so for now he's there as an independent.

If the system allows that it raises some very serious questions about safeguarding IMO.

I think it was obvious anyway, it's just yet another, alleged, wrongun.

Still, let's pretend this is a one off and there's no systemic issue here.

Amesbury's sentence was in line with others who commited the same offence.

They can always get worse, junior.
