Unofficial Christ's Hospital Forum

Keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer..... Some may have been staying “friends” in order to see what others are saying. I do that in terms of following political figures and commentators I vehemently disagree with - mainly to ensure I don’t exist in my own echo chamber, but also also...

I would hope the church would release a statement, and he’d be de-frocked for his appalling breach of trust and horrific offences to young vulnerable kids away from home, turning to the person who...

I don't think there's anything prejudicial, which isn't already elsewhere on the forum from previous topics/comments.....I think it's all factual, and suitably caveated depending on the verdict.

Done - moved.

I think I’ll leave the previous comment to stand to speak for itself, given the swear-filter blocked it out - but just to be clear this is unbecoming and not normally acceptable on this forum thank you.

J.R. and I have received an update regarding Dobbie's sentencing, which has come to us second-hand, but originates from Sussex Police: Sentencing likely to take place around 30/4/2019, due to further charges having been brought by Sussex Police for new offences relating to indecent assault, with a t...

Ooh, now there’s an idea!
