Rotten justice

THE astonishing leniency towards Huw Edwards exposes a two-tier justice system which must be rebuilt.

It is not just the suspicion that ­convicted celebrities get better treatment than ordinary criminals, as if the establishment considers their public disgrace punishment enough.

It is that four out of five paedos, regardless of background, dodge jail for having child abuse pictures as Edwards did.

It is scandalous that a man can be locked away for stealing cherry bakewells but not for viewing images of a small boy being raped.

Each horrific photo the BBC’s top journalist leered over was of an innocent child being sexually abused.

He and other perverts fuel an abhorrent global trade in exploitation.

Is Edwards being sufficiently punished, living freely and in comfort, while attending occasional rehabilitation sessions? Hardly.

And what deterrent is there if paedos are overwhelmingly likely to get just a slap on the wrist over illegal images?

None — as our dossier today proves.

Medic menaces

THE arrogance, self-importance and naked greed of the junior doctors’ BMA union are a sickening disgrace.

The young medics have reluctantly accepted their jaw-dropping 22 per cent rise — a no-strings-attached bribe to stop their incessant strikes.

But their power-crazed Marxist union leaders have banked that and warned of more walkouts unless ultimately they get another 20.8 per cent.

Huw Edwards is a manipulative paedo – if The Sun hadn’t exposed him he'd have remained undetected

Meanwhile the Health Department has agreed to rebrand junior doctors “resident doctors” — the union deeming the original too demeaning.

They demand our respect, while threatening to blackmail the NHS yet again for even more money.

These are the ­tactics of gangsters, not junior doctors.

The Government cannot appease militant extremists. They just keep coming for more.

Free and Keir

THE scandal over the Starmers’ freebies is not whether Commons rules were followed.

It is why a wealthy Prime Minister and his wife believe they still need designer clothes and even glasses bought for them by a Labour-backing tycoon who was given a Downing Street pass.

It is that Sir Keir somehow imagined this was OK while simultaneously stripping pensioners of their winter heating payment (to give to train drivers from a union which bankrolls Labour).

And, as Tory leadership hopeful Kemi Badenoch says, it is about the sanctimonious rage with which the PM and his party previously savaged the Tory ­Government for taking donations to redecorate No10’s publicly owned flat.

How confected and hypocritical all that moralising over sleaze looks now.
