If anyone has missed this then as Rick said, please feel free to use it. These MSP’s need pressured into doing the right thing.With this being discussed in Holyrood today, please take the time to email your MSP. It really does help, even if it seems they don't listen. If no one emails then they have an excuse to do nothing. Don't make it that easy.
Feel free to copy my letter if it helps.
Hello XYZ,
I had contacted you before regarding historic child abuse in Scottish football. At the time you had suggested that everyone should wait until the SFA had released its report on the subject before anything could be moved forward.
The SFA has now released its long-awaited / delayed report. It is welcome that every club has to own-up and apologise for their own part in any events.
However, questions are rightfully being asked about what has been omitted and how scale and the facts of circumstance have been carefully removed from the report. In the words of victims and victims’ families, it’s a whitewash.
So, with this subject due to be discussed in Holyrood today I ask you to consider the following:
- Was the author of the report the most suitable person to lead the investigation?
- Was the SFA the most suitable body to conduct the investigation, given influence and conflicts of interest?
- Why has so much information been omitted?
Is a full and open public independent enquiry the only way to forward now?
I trust you’ll do your best,
R R
I’ll leave you with the opinions of the ones that really matter.
Also if any of you haven’t seen Ricks blogs on this issue then I urge you to do so. Some outstanding work has been done by Rick on this.
