That is a misrepresentation of the circular in question: [Link] It was issued on 18th July 2008. Starmer became DPP on 1st November 2008. Starmer made changes that it can be argued led to successful prosecutions of these gangs and other similar abusers: [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(46-1-50) Author

NNN, this appears to be your personal opinion. You have not provided direct evidence or sources to disprove the post. Opinions should not be presented as facts without supporting evidence. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(24-1-20) Author

The one who wrote CN is not providing any evidence against the OP's claim. They are just sharing an opinion which should belongs to the comments. The sources provided do not prove anything, and are unreliable. NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(14-0-13) Author

NN - The proposed CN clearly states two facts that contradict the OP. 1) The circular has been purposefully misrepresented and the full circular has been provided for additional context. 2) Keir Starmer was appointed DPP after the circular was produced, with dates provided.

This quote refers to a circular which was produced prior to Keir Starmer being appointed DPP. Keir Starmer became DPP on 1 November 2008. It’s incorrect to claim he said this, when the evidence shows that he did not. [Link][Link][Link][Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(49-1-31) Author

NNN - The current note provides one link to an official source, to the .gov website. It would seem that they used a government link to “ The duties and powers of the police under The Children Act 1989”, which has no content to support the note. And The Guardian is not reliable.

The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) plays no role in the Home Office. If the email was sent, then Starmer was not involved. The DPP heads the Crown Prosecution Service: [Link] The CPS is overseen by the Attorney General: [Link] The Home Office is a different government body. [Link][Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(17-0-18) Author

The claim in the image is false. The “informed choice” quote originated with Nazir Afzal, who first claimed in 2017 (and still claims today) the words appeared in a 2008 circular emailed to police. They clearly did not: [Link] Link is from Afzal himself: [Link][Link][Link][Link] In his words: [Link][Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL(30-0-12) Author

The quote is made up and never written in the 2008 statement. The circular was distributed as part of the Children’s Act which seeks to protect Children from harm. Further, Keir Starmer wasn't yet DPP at the time. He assumed office in November, the letter is from July. [Link][Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(11-1-3) Author
