Labour didn’t even tell the parents what had happened!

Labour’s handling of this makes the legal profession look good by comparison.

How could they not tell parents about this? They had 15 and 16 year olds there. All parents (not just those of the victims) should have been told.

There’s a number of questions that Labour needs to answer:

  1. Did they have written consent from parents to supply alcohol to those under 18?
  2. Do they believe the supply of alcohol was done in a responsible manner as required by law?
  3. Were those assaulted informed they could lay a complaint with the Police? If not, why not?
  4. Were those assaulted pressured not to lay a complaint?
  5. Who decided not to tell parents of minors what had happened?
  6. Who decided not to tell the party leader that there were complaints of sexual assault at a Labour Party event she had spoken at?
  7. How did anyone think that trying to keep it all quiet and sweep it under the carpet was going to work in the post Weinstein world
  8. Will Labour try and claim this was not an official Labour Party event and blame it all on Young Labour or Matt McCarten!
