Some of the survivors and whistleblowers have talked about the danger of this inquiry marking
0:13
its own homework, so police officers and social workers being involved. MPs were involved in
0:20
the cover up of this scandal as well. Couldn't you argue that a select committee investigation
0:24
would be MPs just marking their own homework? Very few of the MPs that are still in the Commons today are the same MPs that were there at
0:32
the time that these abuses were happening, is the answer I would give to that. The basic
0:39
point, I think your argument, make your own, you're more than capable, but I think your
0:45
basic argument was that you didn't want social workers or police chairing this inquiry
0:50
Yeah, absolutely. Social workers and police officers are the very institutions that have
0:55
failed us for decades and decades. And I think what people are forgetting as well
0:59
is that institutions almost materializes it. These are real people behind these
1:05
that are constantly looking at us like we're nothing and sending us away and silencing us
1:09
So I think my priority was just somebody with a heart, somebody with a little bit of humanity
1:14
that would be able to fight our corner and do what we've been promised for decades
1:18
and that was to be safeguarded
