UK Government: Lead a Public Independent Inquiry into Celtic FC Historic Child Abuse


UK Government: Lead a Public Independent Inquiry into Celtic FC Historic Child Abuse
The Issue
The sporting organisation in Scotland known as Celtic Football Club have continually covered up child sexual abuse at their sporting academy organisation "Celtic Boys Club" since the 1960's and have on more than one occasion knowingly employed paedophiles - even after their convictions for CSA offences. Ex-Celtic coach Jim Torbett returned for a second period of employment with Celtic FC after serving time in jail for these crimes towards boys attending the youth academy of Celtic FC. Celtic FC and their director Peter Lawwell have intimated that they have been carrying out a closed-door 2 year investigation on the matter, however victims deserve the right to a full public inquiry, led by the UK and Scottish Parliaments. Please sign this petition to the UK Parliament to ensure this inquiry takes place in the public domain, to ensure compensation paid to the victims of Celtic Boys Club.
