Re:Amazon Panorama "expose" 11 Years, 7 Months ago
A really bad programme; Panorama might do better exposing how the Savile false allegations industry encouraged thousands to exaggerate or why the media hates the BBC.

Panaroma is nothing like it was in the 90's, as Christmas approaching easy to boycott a big company like Amazon, remember they did one eBay which is still growing.

We don't actually know if the allegations against savile were false or true for that matter.

Agreed......apparently being forced to work contracted hours is stressful, and you might, as a fit 23 year old, be asked to walk 6-11 miles in a shift. Scandalous......

There is overwhelming evidence that several of the claims are false, and many more seem quite ludicrous.
I suggest Robbie that memories change over time and without real evidence can be exaggerated - whether by genuine reasons or for cash or a desire for sympathy or for many other reasons. I seriously doubt whether all are accurate.

Then no one would want to work there until they improve conditions. I worked in a factory I could not reach their 4000 production target I could only reach to 2000 in 12 hours, I was sacked in 2 weeks.

I don't believe that all the allegations are true either. I'm just saying that just as the media assume guilt all the time, the people on this site always assume innocence. The truth is that we will never know whether any or all of the allegations are true.
I certainly don't always assume innocence Robbie and don't believe most others do either. But many of us assume confusion, exaggeration, inflation and police corruption.

I don't, but I think it is indecent to declare someone guilty without proper evidence.

In fairness most of the allegations were believed to have taken place in the 60s,70s, and early 80s, well before childlike was set up. Although they could have reported historical abuse, most people probably would have thought that they had missed the boat.
Re:Amazon Panorama "expose" 11 Years, 7 Months ago
Is anyone else on Amazon Vine? They asked me a few years ago. I get loads of lovely things for free in return for a review. Twice a month. It's great, but I still don't know why they asked me. It's more mysterious than the Apostles!
