An open letter to the Home Office

An open letter from Michael H Murrin to the Home Office in relation to the child abuse inquiry appears in childprotectionwhistleblowers.com. It calls for the inquiry to be rebooted as a royal commission with statutory powers in order to determine the truth or falsity of the serious allegations being made about Lord Brittan and others.

He refers to the involvement of the Home Office in the various drafts of Mrs Woolf`s letter to the Select Committee, and goes on:

 Let me make it clear. I am saying there are now substantial reasons to assert that the Inquiry is not impartial, is not independent and the honesty of its last chair has been completely undermined by being under the direct control of the Home Office. This amounts to nothing less than a criminal undertaking to subvert the Democratic process.
 

Mr Murrin points to an early draft of Mrs Woolf’s letter to the Home Affairs Select Committee which failed to make it into the final Home Office draft, in which she said: 

"In my capacity as Lord Mayor my steward has been Colin Tucker a former solicitor from Edinburgh. In 1989 Mr Tucker was prosecuted for fraud. He was later struck off as a solicitor. In 1983 he was involved in an inquiry into an allegation of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, in Scotland, conducted by WA Nimmo Smith QC and JD Friel, Regional Procurator Fiscal of North Strathclyde. The inquiry concerned allegations that senior figures in the Edinburgh legal fraternity, including judges, were engaged in sexual relations with underage boys" 

If this alone were not bad enough Mrs Woolf and the Home Office were also finally forced to admit in her list of interests to the existence of a link to none other than PIE: [Paedophile Information Exchange]...It has been suggested that P.I.E was, in effect, taken over and run by the security services for the purposes of collecting information which has been used to compromise, blackmail and control members and servants of Her Majesty’s Government. It is this allegation which convinces me that ANY Inquiry into child abuse that excludes a specific investigation into P.I.E is nothing more than a cover up.

It can be better understood why abuse at Kincora boy`s home in Ireland and abuse in Scotland are not being addressed by the inquiry. For those interested in a cover-up, it is best to avoid the links.

  1. Interesting ... This part caught my eye.

    "In my capacity as Lord Mayor my steward has been Colin Tucker a former solicitor from Edinburgh. In 1989 Mr Tucker was prosecuted for fraud. He was later struck off as a solicitor.

    Is this the same thing that Kenneth Roy wrote about in the Scottish Review recently ?

  2. It`s the same case. The 16-year-old boy on leave from a children's home was held at the address in central Edinburgh, drugged and repeatedly raped over a period of 10 days.

    The investigation initially resulted in 57 charges against 10 men, later reduced to 10 charges against five men whose not guilty pleas were accepted by a court in February 1991.

    The property was owned by Tam Paton, the late manager of the Bay City Rollers and was believed by the police to be at the hub of the Operation Planet paedophile network.

    Operation Planet is also discussed at http://www.ukcolumn.org/article/operation-planet-abuse-justice-crown-office-scotland
