There is nothing more understandable than a son and a daughter wanting to clear their father’s name of serious unproven allegations after he is no longer here to defend himself. Particularly if the allegations concern such a heinous crime as child sex abuse.
And their father Greville was a national figure with a huge reputation as a fighter for reparations for the victims of the Holocaust.
However his son Daniel Janner, himself a prominent barrister, has gone over the top in deciding that the Independent Inquiry into Child Sex Abuse cannot examine the allegations against his father.
