I expect it will be a immigrant, who will say I’m innocent , women are nobody,& the police will not charge him,
What a ridiculous comment.
Actually it’s happening all over the uk and is always immigrants sorry to burst your bubble.
Stupid man!!!!our prisons are full of UK residents many from The Island bor.n and bred who are in there’s for crimes of this sort ,so close your mouth give your “ar.. a chance probably talks more sense
Probably they get excused saying it’s okay in their religion I say pick on your own children not ours.
A few years back I had some 15 yr olds messing about on my property and I politely told them to leave. The ringleader girl started chanting,”pedo, pedo…” I pointed out I was a small middle aged woman and she was a tall,strapping, strong young woman. Her friends burst out laughing and they left. So I’m taking this tale with a grain of salt.
Ditto
Until the country gets tough with youngsters
nothing will improve.
Where is the description..the girl will have been able to indicate skin colour…
Well….
What has colour got to do with it.
Let me guess, a doctor or engineer recently imported
Don’t be a Numpty all your life, these persons
are well educated and do a great job.
The island needs such professional people.
This happened a few months back as well and turned out to be a fake. Hard on police as they need to investigate but chance are higher than not its the teen with the issue which plays bad on women who are actually assaulted when too many people crying wolf
I wish more of you would take these attacks seriously as they are happening by the thousands across the whole of the UK and police have been told to play down if it is an immigrant which it normally is. Keep your daughters safe and on Fridays your sons
