The Liberal Democrats, as we know, are in a pitiful and painful state. They had a once in a lifetime shot at power some time back, and performed poorly, as they are not designed for power, their scenario is a kind of utopia that simply doesn't and can't exist in normal life. In the recent election they flopped badly and lost yet another leader, which came as a surprise because had she done things differently, in such a crucial election, Jo Swinson could have made the party stronger.
The Liberal Democrats has a history of high profile paedophiles and peadophile protectors, although the other political parties are far from innocent. But the Liberal Democrats won't address abuse and complaints and refuse to act, in their utopia of 'greener and fairer' realities of abuse and its effects seem to be lost. As a certain victim who we know well found out.
Dodd's self-righteous attacks on the UK government, considering what she has done and her election as leader of the decimated Welsh Lib Dems are a sign that the Lib Dems are reaching rock bottom. A) because they are aware of her dismal political record, an opportunistic election because of an MP being removed due to fraud, Dodds was MP for all of a few months, and b) because she has unresolved safeguarding complaints against her that involve her taking part in harm to an abuse victim in order to cover up abuse. Dodds sounds like the guilty Justin Welby in her attention-seeking by judging others, cut from the same cloth.
The world is largely silent about Dodds because politically the Lib Dems could be a florists business as far as most people are concerned. A nuisance florists shop at times. Dodds could be a florist. But, it seems that the Lib Dems have a very significant safeguarding problem, in that they specialize in serious prolific abusers and those who protect them, such people, in the Lib Dems are invariably exalted and promoted, as Dodds proves. How is the lib dems, a haven for corruption and abuse, 'fairer' than other parties?
Paedophiles, abusers and those who cover up abuse include:
- Cyril Smith - not cleared although there are still newspapers who do not know the difference between not convicted and not cleared.
- Lord Steel, who failed to investigate Cyril Smith properly.
- Mark Oaten
- Frank Beck
- Lord Carlile
- Jane Dodds
- Francis Butler
- Justin Tillman
- John Astley
- Maurice Burgess
- Michael Angell
- Morris Lightfoot
- Neil Derbyshire
- John Pilkington
- Bob Hargreaves
I have observed the lenient sentences that the convicted of offences get, the opposite of the 'fairer' world that the Lib Dems and Dodds claim to strive for. And the list is just a few, several new convictions of councillors have been made recently.
My understanding Of Dodds is that she wouldn't have any place in politics if she was an English woman in England, her 'Welsh' background makes her slightly less than totally insignificant in Wales. Previous to Dodds being Monmouthshire's perpetual and never elected candidate, Lord Carlile was the Liberal Democrat MP for Monmouthshire, he is also a very unpleasant and misogynistic man who openly personally insulted his wife when he left her for his mistress, and appears to have no shame. I have never heard the Liberal Democrats condemn him either for this or his other behaviours. He behaves appallingly and increases the bad reputation of the party and yet he interferes in abuse cases.
Carlile is widely considered to be a paedophile sympathizer, and shared offices with some of the highest profile prolific paedophiles in Westminster, he has been the unsuitable lead in abuse cases, whitewashing and denying abuse in cases where abuse was later proven to have occurred. He could almost be seen as a personal whitewasher not just for the Liberal Democrats, but interestingly enough, for the Church of England, who have a core gang of Lords and QCs who are too powerful to be questioned or investigated and routinely carry out investigations which protect the C of E. Consider how serious that balance of power is in relation to vulnerable abuse victims.
So Dodds tried to step into Carlile's shoes in Monmouthshire, and failed abjectly, and interestingly enough, also followed him into the Church of England's cover-up team. There is no doubt, especially looking at the bizarre 'Lib Dem' style of the C of E at the moment, both in virtue signalling and in protection of abusers, safeguarding failure, lack of accountability and lack of response to concerns, that the C of E and Liberal Democrats are intermeshed. One body that actively supports abusers working with another both refusing to change as both die from their corruption and abuse.
The liberal democrats have some phrase about 'Greener and Fairer'. Cast greener aside while the UK is in severe crisis because life matters more than compost, and the 'Fairer' simply doesn't belong to a party that is active in abuse and cover-up and refusal of responsibility. Dodd's flailing tantrums about the government are astounding considering that she is a firmly not elected politician who briefly gained a seat by being devious, opportunistic and without the slightest regard for her Monmouthshire constituents, power before people. Dodds firmly lost the seat and if poor old Brecon is lucky, will never regain it, they already have enough problems, they need an MP, not someone with a worthless dream and hypocrisy who is a safeguarding risk.
Some years back, Dodds, while claiming to be 'working hard for a greener and fairer Monmouthshire' was travelling to London to manage the Church of England's safeguarding cases, obviously a full time salaried position if each Diocese receives hundreds of complaints per month. During this time, C of E victims saw no improvement in the cold and nasty way the Church of England treated them, and not a single Bishop or Senior Clergyman or member of Laity involved in cover-ups or abuse was removed. While Dodds was in office, and some said she was claiming to be a 'volunteer' for the Church although their safeguarding case manager, which was her position, is a full time paid position.
No improvement was made to safeguarding on Dodds' watch. In fact during that time it is written on several victims' blogs that Dodds and team put the phone down on them, refused to engage, failed to answer letters, messages and calls, and obstructed their quest for justice and a voice in a nasty way, a number of victims have been made out to be insane.
Now all of this is generic Church of England behaviour towards victims, always has been, and despite another wave of falsehoods about changed leads and changed safeguarding, that remains the case, notably including the fact that Dodds has not been disciplined or regulated for her behaviour. Dodds was willing to defame the victim and uphold lies about her and allow powerful people to crush the victim. Those aren't qualities or behaviours fitting for an MP.
We know the victim of the high profile case where Dodds and her colleagues in the Church of England tried to silence her and significantly failed to act in one of the biggest cover-ups in the Church of England. Dodds, if she had a conscience, would not be standing in any public position after the damage she has done, not just in the cover-up, where she personally allowed a vulnerable adult to be seriously harmed, but also in making sure that the victims continued complaints to Dodds and about her to Welsh Lib Dems, UK Lib Dems, Welsh Safeguarding, Welsh Government and more, were not processed.
The C of E method is to make a distressed victim who goes on demanding justice out to be insane, and Dodds, taking part in that and not taking responsibility for herself, makes her integrity nil, her flailing in the press inappropriate and in poor taste, and her continued involvement and promotion in the Lib Dems into a farce. Dodds abusing the press for her needs is reminiscent of the same behaviour by her friends and colleagues in the Church of England, the constant virtue signalling and attempts at judgement from clergy who have been involved in such rotten, corrupt and abusive behaviour.
The matter of cover-up was where Dodds allowed a vulnerable adult to be destroyed publicly for the sake of the Church's image, and falsehood reports akin to those of Lord Carlile's were carried out by similar conflicted and power abusing dignitaries. Dodds allowed the reports to be acted upon as if they were genuine, despite the autistic victim fighting for her life and taking out an injunction. Dodds allowed dangerous acts by the senior clergy involved to nearly kill the victim, she failed completely to stop harm to the victim and astonishingly tried to tell the victim that 'no one meant to hurt her' and 'the church could learn from her' and other such insults added to serious injury that nearly killed the victim of two serial abusers and the closed and abusive ranks of the Church of England.
Dodds then left the position which she had held for a matter of months, without any warning to victims, and walked away to continue her pseudo-career in politics, knowing that she had walked away from an abuse victim still being destroyed by the Church of England. Dodds had not made Monmouthshire aware of her bizarre stint in the C of E. The victim lost their home and their whole life, and remains homeless as Dodds adds to their anguish by her feeble and flailing 'political career', having not been made responsible by the Liberal Democrats for the harm that she took part in to the victim and other victims in less high profile case.
So if being complicit in abuse is why Dodds and others progress in the Liberal Democrats, we can be assured that the party will continue to attract abusers and those like Dodds, Carlile, Steel, who protect abusers and harm victims.
The C of E have a very high turnover of safeguarding staff because safeguarding in the Church of England is not possible and those people find themselves compromised if they have any integrity, but Dodd's intervention for a matter of months in order to insult and distress the victim of the biggest whitewash in the history of the C of E was exceptional.
Very shortly after Dodds left, presumably chosen by her, Lord Carlile carried out another unprofessional and inappropriate 'safeguarding investigation' which had a lasting impact, and more recently he has continued to intervene as one of the core Lord and QCs who protect the church at the expense of victims.
Dodds continued to be a surplus in Monmouthshire until she deviously decided to simply abandon her post when the MP for Brecon and Radnorshire was forced out due to dishonesty and there was little time to arrange a strong replacement so Dodds took advantage of that, and despite safeguarding complaints against her to the Lib Dems and Welsh Safeguarding Board, she was allowed to abuse the election to be elected, for a matter of months until a proper replacement for the former MP was found for the general election.
Dodds being one of the shortest serving MPs ever, was now back to being a 'candidate' in Brecon and Radnorshire, not welcome back to Monmouthshire in full. Her flailings and tantrums, considering her failed career, have been ridiculous and a distress to her victims. She is then, on the strength of her failed political career, elected to lead the Welsh Lib Dems, indicating that the Lib Dems have crashed hard and are unlikely to rise again even in the horrifying position that the UK is in. The lib dems need leaders, not apologists.
It would help all victims of the Church of England and the Liberal Democrats if Dodds would wind her neck in and not try to act as if she was in a position to publicly judge politicians. Her election as head of the Welsh Lib Dems is an indication that the Welsh Lib Dems are on their last legs, as well as an indication that Dodds is typical of both the C of E and Lib Dems, without conscience and without regulation, willing and able to go on harming the vulnerable. Her victim from the major cover-up, remains homeless and seriously injured, suffering life-changing harm because of Dodds. Dodds is aware of that and aware that her fake political career and flailing tantrums in the press harms her victim and all other victims of C of E and Lib Dem safeguarding failures. All who were made aware and instead of acting, allowed the victim to be portrayed as insane, are responsible for Dodds and any further harm that she does.
Dodds flailing in the press is very unwelcome indeed. It is an insult to C of E victims, she is a failed politician and a dishonest one, she makes the lib dems ridiculous, she is an indication of the death of the Lib Dems and their failure to safeguard. So for pity's sake, don't let her tantrums and false triumphs be inflicted on the general public, and make sure the safeguarding complaint is dealt with.
Dodds' behaviour in the whitewash nearly killed someone, and if it had, she would still be without conscience and flailing as she is. The lib dems, like their friends in the C of E, have fallen beyond redemption.
