To me this was TV drama at its best. I am very aware that the perpetrators all have a Pakistani heritage. It is important to remember that not all British Asians are Muslims and yet Sikhs and Hindus have been on the receiving end of backlashes.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-30181444362480585482017-05-21T10:31:52.045+01:002017-05-21T10:31:52.045+01:00I just couldn't bring myself to make time to w...I just couldn't bring myself to make time to watch this. I knew the story, of course, but I've seen too much of 'real life' in real life and I just want to be entertained with happier things at this stage of my life. I notice, however, that all but one (?) of the perpetrators is now out of prison.

Perversion would have been kept in check either by persuasion or force. Now societies are much more fragmented and those old controls have either been relaxed or erased.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-38659792421654486022017-05-21T10:25:56.333+01:002017-05-21T10:25:56.333+01:00I fear that you are right.
