The Enablers are staying very very quiet, urged to say and do nothing to encourage further examination. But the fuse has been lit. Mainly amongst the lawyers who thought they were onto a real winner here. Allegations against a rich, famous dead person can earn fortunes for those who file the paperwork and bank the fees.

As they can for broadcasters, newspapers, for interviews, programmes and salacious memoirs. With no apparent downside.

As the PR man Max Clifford used to tell clients (with a wink and a nod) - "you must assure me you are telling the truth here".

Then helping memories, assisting on things like dates and provable facts ("look, here's an old diary entry"). How can it go wrong?

You'll notice, strangely, lawyers making public statements about harm done, damage, personal traumas - lawyers rarely do that about murders, fraud, drug smuggling.

Ambulance chasers have changed their public image and hide behind different facades.

It's how they react during a crisis which is interesting and revealing. Which is why advice is given "say nothing. stay silent".

How can a liar be exposed? It's very hard when the only other witness is dead. But there are more honest, decent people around than you might think and people like the daughter and son involved in the Savile fraud case illustrate that. And there are further motivations. Greed. When the money has run out from a lie, sometimes liars think "I might earn more if I now tell the truth". So get ready for "false accuser spills the beans and reveals why she lied about Savile" type stories.

And some enablers will be squirming.

The tide is indeed turning.

The Mirror's completely watered-down take is quite funny - they daren't overstep the mark of their paymasters and print the more unedifying facts from the MoS article
