First, I think the charity is probably overstating its case - the claim that literally every town in the nation exhibits child abuse is incredible and smacks of an organisation that either doesn't understand its scope or, more likely, is trying to widen it to improve its prominence.
Second, there is an underlying point about an escalation of claims. This is what I've been going on about for some time now. The greater the claim, the more sufficient the need for evidence, otherwise you're set to ride a runaway train of suspicious rumours and vague conspiracy theories. That is exhibited here with this charity and also with the suggestions of a historic high level paedophile ring.
Third, and finally, there is something weirdly salacious about all these matters and that is a bit troubling - that people would like this to be true rather than false.
