Wanna Be in My Gang?

Look, isn't it harassment?  Arresting Gary Glitter again, I mean.  For God's sake, he's already a convicted sex offender in two countries.  I think we've clearly established that he's a nonce, do we really need to spend yet more money and resources investigating him because he knew Jimmy Savile?  And what's with the media continuously referring to Glitter as a 'former pop star'?  How do they know tht he's still not a pop star?  OK, he doesn't have a record contract and hasn't released anything for decades, but for all we know, he could be recording and releasing stuff directly to the web.  Perhaps he's invented a whole new genre - peado rap?  Who knows.  But his arrest is sadly inevitable - as I've been predicting, whilst the police and press like to tease us with talk of more celebrities about to be named and shamed as alleged sex offenders as the Savile hysteria, sorry, investigation continues, the reality is that, when push came to shove, they were only ever going to give us stuff we'd already heard.  Glitter is always a safe bet to name in connection with this sort of case - he's already been convicted twice of child sex offences so he's unlikely to sue if the press acuse him of being a peado, which we already know he is.

In the meantime, this continued teasing has only one result - endless web speculation and searches by people trying to link every celebrity they don't like with Jimmy Savile or peadophilia generally.  I know, lots of them end up at The Sleaze, (believe me, I'm more than happy to exploit such media fuelled insanity to generate traffic for my site).  You wouldn't believe some of the names they're trying get dirt on.  Indeed, for obvious legal reasons, I can't name any names.  But believe me, come of them are bloody bizarre.  Actually, my top tip for the dead minor celebrity most likely to turn out to have been a nonce hasn't been mentioned anywhere yet: Rod Hull and Emu.  Yeah, that's right, the popular seventies and eighties children's entertainer.  I've no doubt he used that bloody Emu puppet to grope young girls.  It was the perfect alibi: 'It wasn't me - was Emu!'.  Getting back to Savile, I see the Vatican is trying to strip him of that Papal Knighthood they gave him.  Yeah, that'll show him, the dead bastard!  Apart from being utterly pointless, this gesture also seems more than a little hypocritical coming from an organisation whose priests have pretty much institutionalised the sexual abuse of children.  Surely they should be canonising Savile to make him the patron saint of kiddie fiddlers?  Then he could look after all those Catholic priests, using his influence with God to stop them being exposed...
