The @bbc showed its true colours again last week by interviewing a man himself accused of being a paedophile to defend Ghislaine Maxwell.
Given the huge number of past cases, one could be forgiven for thinking the BBC is bound by its statutes to defend and protect nonces.
Although many at the Beeb prefer to use the rear entrance, this thread takes us into Broadcasting House aka Nonce Towers round the front, past the statue of the naked child by the paedophile 'artist' Eric Gill.
Let's see where it takes us!

It isn't just the entertainers, presenters and producers who make the BBC a safe haven for nonces. It's the people behind the scenes with the power to set the agenda, turn a blind eye and then feign surprise at how Savile could have happened.
Like Lizzie Watson...
Lizzi Watson is a) BBC news editor and b) daughter of Margaret Hodge who presided over child abuse at homes under her watch on an industrial scale. These included 'Savile taxis' ferrying kids in care to abusers.

…earchingreform-net.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/researchin…
With a daughter on the news team and David Edmonds, her nephew and brother of Philip of Maddie fame, as a feature maker, it is hard to believe that Hodge would never be tempted to influence the BBC's coverage of Savile, Islington or the McCann case.
Paedophila runs through the BBC's DNA to such an extent that they even employed a triple-convicted child abuser to ferry big-name nonces to Broadcasting House. Niven Sinclair even sat in on BBC meetings yet was never identified by Dame Janet Smith!

This and Alex Bourne's interview with James O'Brien throws up more questions than it answers:
Why do Hancock and Bourne only rush to justify their actions AFTER the disclosure by Good Law Project?
Why does Matt Hancock always refer to Bourne as 'my constituent' when he was the landlord of the pub, a picture of which adorned the wall of his office until he surretiously took it down and is referred to as 'Matty' by Bourne.

What is it about Britain's Secretaries of State for Culture, Media and Sport?
James Purnell held this post in the mid-Noughties. In 2003, vile child abuse images were found on his computer. A fall guy, Paul Doggett, was soon found and Purnell was cleared of involvement. But what halfwit of a Culture Secretary would grant unfettered access to his computer?
Interestingly, the fall guy ploy was adopted in the case of Purnell's close friend Peter Mandelson. When Operation Ore suspected him of trawling the web for child-abuse images, a Welsh student was pulled out of the hat who allegedly had claimed to be Mandelson.
How convenient!

Johnson is like Julius Caesar:
Let me have men about me that are fat. People who do my bidding.
Hence, his attempts to install his sycophants and buddies in positions of power, building a ring of steel around him.
Like Dacre at Ofcom, for example.

But someone had to hold the fort at the Mail. A steady hand was needed to steer the fascist Rothermere course as complaints about the way this failing government has been treated by the Fail have been received from No. 10 ...
Geordie Greig, the incumbent and an extremely close friend of Ghislaine Maxwell over the years, had to go to make way for a hardliner, shaped in the image of Dacre, a steady pro-Boris hand on the tiller ...

I think the world is quite rightly more interested in the longer report you didn't publish.
@InquiryCSA
In fact, I would go as far as saying that by withholding the true nature of Janner's crimes and his associations you are in fact part of the coverup and perpetuating child abuse by sending out a clear message to VIP abusers that their actions have no consequences!
In fact, your refusal to release the full and unredacted version fuels the wildly ludicrous and baseless claims of the likes of Daniel Janner that the abuse inquiry offers no proof of his father's guilt.

Oh look, John Whittingdale got his daughter Alice a job promoting Matt Hancock!
With hindsight, a very interesting read:

Here's Alice Whittingdale, daughter of John Whippingdale, from the Pagefield website.
Senior Executive at such a young age ... or was it a case of who your daddy knows?
