Rejected petition Call for MP Boris Johnson to resign after his vile & distasteful language RE CSA
MP Boris Johnson went on the Radio & when asked where police money could be saved, he said historic child sexual abuse investigations had “spaffed” £66m up the wall. His comments are vile, unfounded & he is not fit for public office. His terminology deeply offensive to survivors of CSA.
More details
It takes years for victims to come forwards & tell someone about their abuse as a child.
To use “spaffed” the urban slang for ejaculate to describe money spent investigating these crimes is vile & he needs to apologise in the commons or resign.
It is not a waste of money, because offenders don’t stop until they are made too. This means not just getting justice for historic victims but protecting children today & in the future. 1 in 6 sexually abused in the UK & they deserve justice.
