Also as I have pointed out they do not refer to the police ignoring the problem for fear as being perceived as being racist they refers to councillors.
That statement ignores other pieces of documented actions by the police. It ignores other statements in the report that contradict this narrative

No, I addressed that - namely that other statements within the report itself contradict this.

What the report actually says, that you ignore is
That statement is contradicted by other statements and other documented occurences - hence why I left it out. Where did this public perception of Police inaction against a certain group come from? The public knew that the group was committing crime, they were reporting it and upon seeing that their reports went un-investigated based solely on the race of the perpetrator - they formed this opinion.
Then you have the letter from Weir - where she raises the ethnicity of the offenders from the reports of the victims - and instead of acting on this letter to apprehend or investigate the offenders - they told her not to refer to the offenders Race again and booked her for a re-education course.
Taking those 2 data points into consideration - can you hand on your heart say that Race did not play a factor in Police inaction?
Furthermore you have to take into account the wider public discourse surrounding the Rotherham case - all of which cite the report as evidence of Police failure to act, based on fear of accusations of Racism.
So a question for you then Husa - If Myself, Katman (and lord knows we agree on pretty much nothing, save possibly the color of the Sky and the manufacturer of our preferred Motorbikes), The Rotherham public and the Wider UK populace have all reached this conclusion - what information are you privy to that invalidates the mainstream interpretation?

Which is not what you have reported it to say now is it.
You choose these quotes (not me)as being in the report as evidence that backed up your assertions that the police did not investigate due to fear of being seen as being racist yet they clearly do not.
They do when read in the wider context of the Report - which is why the prevailing interpretation of the report is that is shows the Police failed to act on fear of Racism...
