As the Tory government scrambled to avoid scandal, it appears little or no consideration was given to the children who were raped.
LONDONThe head of Britains MI5 domestic intelligence service told the Thatcher government that a pedophile MP was operating in the House of Commons but suggested a plot to cover up his penchant for small boys in order to avoid political embarrassment.

Proof of the extraordinary cover-up in the 1980s was kept hidden in the Cabinet Office vaults for more than a quarter of a century despite an official inquiry last year that was supposed to uncover government documents that included
any evidence of pedophiles in Westminster.

after the government slipped it online as parliament closed for the summer. (PDF)
