Because he has had the gall to do things like stand up for his Jewish constituency or stand up for Israel, had to walk around wearing a stab vest, had his office, I think, was the victim of an arson attack and ultimately thought, screw this, this isn't worth it. This is not worth my life, which is frankly a pretty rational conclusion.

Or just when you think about why is the average British person not caring? Well, maybe it's because looking at the nature of the problem is pretty terrifying. If you look at the nature of the problem here, you could arguably say โ€“ Holy shit. Excuse my language.

A lot of people have been led into this country that do not share basic fundamental British or Western values of toleration and pluralism and liberalism broadly defined. There doesn't seem to be a plan on the part of either party to solve that. And so we're just going to kind of wish it away. From my perspective, that seems to be a huge dynamic at play here. of why people don't want to look.

More with Ayan and Julie after the break. Please stay with us. Let's talk a little bit about sort of the cover-up here and the systematic nature of the cover-up because when you look at all of the layers of it, it almost looks like a conspiracy.

Local counselors and members of parliament rejected pleas for help from the parents of raped children.
