I wonder if the Tory back benchers are getting uppity about the Savile jibe because it'll resurface Thatcher's rather close relationship with him.

She tried to get him a knighthood for years, for his fundraising for Stoke Mandeville hospital.
There was a connection with Thatcher but a close relationship I'm not sure.

I don't think he had him around for tea and cucumber sandwiches though.
but Savills kiddie fiddling hadn't surfaced then no complaints on him apart from good causes. like there wasn't on the West ham guy who kicked the cat no trouble with him till this story
I think there were those who had a good idea what Jim was fixing.
but then Starmer buried the Rotherham kiddie fiddling scared he would be called a racist 10 months he hid it even when they had DNA
No idea about that. I met Savile once in Scarborough, it wasn't difficult to see he wasn't althogther a wholesome person.
I never read anything like that at the time your good with innuendo mate put facts up if you have some the only fact is Starmer left him and the groomers off prosecution to secure his career

Starmer’s Shambolic CPS, previously dubbed ‘an enemy to women’, proves he is unfit to serve as a member of parliament, let alone leader of the opposition.
November 2008, Sir Keir’s half decade in the position oversaw cases as large and polarising as the Rochdale grooming gang scandal, mass sexual abuse scandals involving entertainment figures such as Jimmy Savile, and the John Worboys case. Patel noted Sir Keir has a complete ‘lack of interest in prosecuting horrendous crimes against women’, a statement hard to argue with when presented with his record.
nothing to get exited about old bean old news which he apologised for which is trying to be swept under the carpet

Arguably the biggest scandal during his time as DPP came right at the beginning of his tenure. A victim of the Rochdale Grooming gang had reported to Greater Manchester Police the sexual exploitation she’d been experiencing since the age of 15, including becoming pregnant by one of the men abusing her. When referred to the CPS, they decided that the victim was ‘not credible’ and that due to ‘insufficient evidence’ there was an ‘unrealistic prospect of conviction’. Victims continued to be plied with alcohol, drugs and gifts and were prostituted out to multiple men a night, multiple times a week for a further five years.

The BBC apparently had complaints etc but ignored them.

We failed grooming victims, law chief Keir Starmer admits
A generation of girls was betrayed by the justice system’s flawed approach to sexual exploitation, England’s chief prosecutor has admitted.
Keir Starmer, QC, the Director of Public Prosecutions, said that men who groomed teenagers for sex had escaped justice for decades because police, prosecutors and the courts failed to understand the nature of the abu
Mr Starmer has ordered a comprehensive restructuring of the Crown Prosecution Service’s response to sex grooming, designed to raise the number of convictions.
The reforms come after an in-depth review of the CPS’s initial reluctance to charge men involved in a notorious sex-grooming network in Rochdale, Greater Manchester.
They will apply to the handling of all current and historic cases of sexual exploitation involving girls and boys, including reviews of
Eric before spreading **** about the Tories at least take a few mins to check out how the real dirty slimy bastards on the Labour side operate. you can apologise to me later for jumping in without checking
So its the leftie loving BBC who hid it from everyone why didn't Starmer prosecute them for withholding evidence, oh forgot he needed them to make him look good
I didn't spread any untruth about the tories. You asked for a link to show Savile met Thatcher. I provided it and also said I didn't know if it was a relationship. If you don't like Starmer then ok I have no view of him.
