Tories knew about Elphicke’s sex crimes before he was charged – and did nothing. Why weren’t they arrested as accessories?
Charlie Elphicke: guilty of sex crimes. What about those in the Tory whips office who knew and are therefore accessories? What about Theresa May, the PM of the day, who also knew?
Former Conservative MP Charlie Elphicke has been found guilty of three counts of sexual assault this week, after being charged nearly three years ago.
But did you know that the Conservative Party’s Parliamentary whips had been well aware of his crimes before he was charged?
Their so-called “dirty dossier” of MPs (during the 2017-19 Parliament) who were known for their inappropriate behaviour included this line: “Charlie Elphicke: inappropriate with female researchers.”
Indeed.
We now learn that in 2007 he kissed and groped a woman at his home, while his wife was away for the night. He went on to chase her around the house, chanting, “I’m a naughty Tory.”
That woman was not identified as a researcher but in 2016 he tried to kiss and then groped a Parliamentary worker, afterwards allegedly saying, “I’m so naughty sometimes.” A month later he ran a hand up her thigh.
That he will be sentenced for his sexual assaults next month will come as scant comfort to the women he assaulted – or to the unknown number of other women (and men) who remain subject to sexual attack by predators who justify it by saying they’re “a naughty Tory”.
The copy of the Tory sexual offenders’ dossier available to me is nearly three years old. It became public knowledge in October 2017; Elphicke was charged in early November.
Who knows how many of the new intake of Tory MPs have joined those who kept their seats in the December 2019 election (Elphicke did not) on that list?
The simple fact is that a crime is a crime, even if committed by a member of Parliament, but these creeps seem to think they are above the law.
Knowing about a crime but hiding the evidence makes a person an accessory to the crime – equally guilty.
So why have the police not arrested those who occupied the Conservative whips’ office in October 2017 – and then-prime minister Theresa May, who was also aware of the list – as accessories to Elphicke’s sex crimes?

Years?
Yes – years. Corrected. Thanks.
Powerful males in politics protecting their equally powerful male bros is not new because for example there is the Cyril Smith scandal and the Jeremy Thorpe one. Both men were powerful and the old white boys’ club ensured these two male sexual predators were protected. Theresa May is a woman so she can’t be part of the white boys’ club so all she could do was obey their male orders and not ‘out’ the now convicted male terrorist Charlie Elphicke.
Whole network of MPs and their followers is rotten to the core – time they were all ‘tossed in the garbage can’ and radical change enacted to ensure no male gains immense political power. But that won’t happen not with lardy fascist dictator boris in power!
Who says Theresa May obeyed “male” orders?
Why should no male be allowed to gain political power?
Your misandry is showing.
