United Kingdom: Children being kidnapped from residences set up by Home Office

 Another day, another scandal

Dozens of asylum-seeking children have been kidnapped by gangs from a Brighton hotel run by the Home Office in a pattern apparently being repeated across the south coast, an Observer investigation can reveal.

A whistleblower, who works for Home Office contractor Mitie, and child protection sources describe children being abducted off the street outside the hotel and bundled into cars.

“Children are literally being picked up from outside the building, disappearing and not being found. They’re being taken from the street by traffickers,” said the source.

It has also emerged that the Home Office was warned repeatedly by police that the vulnerable occupants of the hotel – asylum-seeking children who had recently arrived in the UK without parents or carers – would be targeted by criminal networks.

About 600 unaccompanied children have passed through the Sussex hotel in the past 18 months, with 136 reported missing. More than half of these – 79 – remain unaccounted for.

The shadow home secretary, Yvette Cooper, described the revelation as “truly appalling and scandalous” and called on the government to reveal how many children had disappeared and what was being done to find them.

She added: “Suella Braverman [the home secretary] has failed to act on the repeated warnings she has been given about totally inadequate safeguards for children in their care.

“It is a total dereliction of duty for the Home Office to so badly fail to protect child safety or crack down on the dangerous gangs putting them in terrible risk. Ministers must urgently put new protection arrangements in place.”

The Mitie whistleblower also described witnessing children being in effect trafficked from a similar hotel run by the Home Office in Hythe, Kent, estimating that 10% of its youngsters disappeared each week.

The child protection source said some of the children missing from the Brighton hotel may have been trafficked as far away as Manchester and Scotland. One case is under investigation by the Metropolitan police in London.

Data published in October showed 222 unaccompanied asylum-seeking children were missing from hotels run by the Home Office. Ministers admitted that they had no idea of their whereabouts.

This is Britain today. Well, while the mass media dwell in scandals surrounding the Royal Family, Harry and Meghan, and so forth, the stench of criminality in the United Kingdom is spreading in every direction. Under Labour, and for more than 16 years, children were drugged, raped and killed while local MPs chose to look the other way for fear of being called 'Racists'. A Labour government ignored the plight of thousands of vulnerable children that were taken away from child refuges. Now, it is happening under a Conservative government. Yvette Cooper MP, who now denounces what is happening under a Conservative government, was a member of the said Labour government.

Meanwhile, it has also emerged that no new guidance for police has been issued for tracking down missing asylum-seeking children, with sources saying it remains in “development”.

New data released under the Freedom of Information Act shows that newly arrived unaccompanied children spend an average of 16.5 days in Home Office hotels before being transferred into council care around the country.

When asked to comment, Brighton and Hove city council, which traditionally cares for child asylum seekers when they arrive in the UK without parents or guardians, referred queries on criminals targeting children to the police. Sussex police said queries on criminals targeting the children should be addressed to the Home Office.

The Home Office said: “Local authorities have a statutory duty to protect all children, regardless of where they go missing from. In the concerning occasion when a child goes missing, they work closely with other local agencies, including the police, to urgently establish their whereabouts and ensure they are safe.

“We have robust safeguarding procedures in place to ensure all children in our care are as safe and supported as possible as we seek urgent placements with a local authority.”

Brighton and Hove city council added: “We have been actively involved when any child is reported missing and have worked with the police and other agencies to try to trace them.”

Catherine Hankinson, National Police Chiefs’ Council lead for missing persons, said regular multi-agency meetings by police reviewed the response to every missing migrant child who had not been located.

 

BNP to shake up Rotherham - Day of Action - Saturday 30th August 2014

For more than 13 years, the British National Party has been campaigning and denouncing the actions of Asian gangs in Rotherham and other British cities where children both boys and girls are targeted by sexual abusers.  In 2001, then British National Party Chairman told the British Broadcasting Corporation about sexual crimes being committed while no politicians and no members of the Police Forces were doing anything to protect the victims. For political and ideological reasons both elected politicians and the Police tried to hide what was going on and ignored the pleas of victims and relatives of the victims. Now, in 2014, even the BBC, itself rocked by a series of sexual abuses involving the BBC itself, show a great deal of hypocrisy regarding this and other issues. But the situation is not limited to Rotherham. It has spilled into other British cities and the number of prosecutions is minimal given high level of criminality and the number of children affected by sexual abuses. BNP to shake up Rotherham

Dear fellow patriot, BNP DAY OF ACTION – SATURDAY 30th AUGUST Join us this Saturday. Meeting time at 12 noon – Meeting point here 20 Stadium Way, Retail World, Parkgate Rotherham, Yorkshire S60 1TG We'll be demanding ex-Labour Police & Crime Commissioner Shaun Wright face criminal prosecution. ==> See the BNP leaflet 'Criminal Charges NOW' <== The children of Rotherham have been sacrificed on the altar of political correctness by the Labour Party – resignations are NOT enough! It was BNP super-activist Marlene Guest whose 5 year campaign investigating the horrors of Muslim grooming gangs in her hometown of Rotherham, forced the independent inquiry after being supplied the mountain of research compiled by Marlene that they needed. The following report revealed that a staggering 1,400 young girls had been gang raped and tortured – in Rotherham alone – by men of 'Pakistani heritage'. “The horrific nature of these crimes is unimaginable and the level of betrayal of the people of Rotherham by the Labour Party staggering!” declared Adam Walker, Leader of the British National Party. “The BNP is now demanding criminal prosecutions. "The paedophile gangs must be hunted down and caged, and those in a position of authority who turned a blind eye to the suffering of our young girls must face the full force of the law!” 50 Labour Councillors and others ignored these crimes. Resignations are not enough! The BNP is demanding criminal charges be brought against the paedophiles, and all those on the council, in the social services and the police who neglected their duty. Will you stand up for justice – can we count on you?

FACT: Just ONE BNP Councillor would have blown the whistle! 64 local councillors in Rotherham and NOT ONE took action for the victims or against the Muslim gangs preying on our girls: • 50 Labour Councillors • 10 UKIP Councillors • 2 Conservative Councillors • 2 Independent Councillors Just ONE BNP Councillor would have blown the whistle and stopped them getting away with these horrific crimes. Are you a Rotherham voter? Your BNP vote could have saved hundreds of victims!

BNP DEMANDS FOR JUSTICE 1. Criminal investigations against all those in public office who covered up these crimes 2. Disciplinary action against staff who failed in their duty towards the victims 3. The introduction of recall so that voters can call an election and officials, like Shaun Wright, can be sacked 4. The detention and prosecution of all those involved in both the grooming and sexual abuse 5. Civil sanctions against all those who have been involved in the abuse or cover-up

Time for action! See you Saturday, Clive Jefferson P.S. BNP super-activist Marlene Guest won her 5 year campaign to force an independent inquiry into paedophile Muslim grooming gangs in Rotherham. Resignations from those who covered up the horrific scandal are NOT good enough. The BNP is holding a day of action this Saturday in Rotherham to DEMAND criminal prosecutions. Can we rely on you?
