OK This is important as it related to the next possible Prime Minister of the UK and how his investigation failed with regard to child abuse. The above is Maggie Olivers resignation letter.

RESIGNATION LETTER TO

Following my comments yesterday in the media around the huge failures in my opinion of part 4 of
independent review in Manchester, I am sharing my resignation letter sent to him and his deputy last January 2024, as I have been approached by numerous news outlets for more information. I share it below in full. I always try to give credit where credit is due, and I will remain eternally grateful to

for instigating the Independent reviews into Op Augusta in Manchester and Op Span in Rochdale. They both confirmed without doubt that all I had said was true and that has been incredibly important to me and survivors as we tried to make sense of all that happened. The final part of the process however was meant to be an “ Assurance Review” and it was meant to deliver assurances that CURRENT practises in

regarding their treatment of vulnerable victims of sexual abuse were now fit for purpose, based on current evidence. Instead what happened in this 4th part of the review was not honest, transparent, or in any way fit for purpose in my opinion. It’s a complex subject matter and there’s an awful lot to cover, but this letter below which I sent to

last January explains some of it, especially why I and

resigned from a process in stage 4 that was little more than a tick box exercise. Even the two independent professionals who had carried out the previous 3 parts resigned, unwilling to put their names to something they knew was not in fact wanting to speak the truth. What I saw in Mr Burnham and

was a willingness to say there had been huge “failures in the past” but when looking at action around failures still going on today, there truly was no “duty of candour” on display! Instead they turned away. Again. Once again the voices of those victims and survivors whose voices SHOULD have been front and centre of this report were totally silenced and blocked out of the “Assurance review” making it worthless. The establishment again “marking its own homework”. Just Like in

the 7 year statutory national enquiry for which we are currently taking this government to a Judicial Review, like in Oldham and in so many other cases throughout the country over the last 3 decades. So there is a willingness to admit past failures as that can no longer be denied, but there’s still a huge avoidance of addressing what’s still going wrong today. In other words continuing to turn away when what our country (and victims) need is a hard scrutiny at the problems TODAY, based on real life experiences of survivors and not a cover up yet again from those at the top of our PUBLIC institutions whose duty it is to act in my opinion. Our public servants, must begin to show courage, integrity, honesty, and bravery, something we have not seen in decades. And that’s has to change!!
