Former Hospital Porter Says Savile was Ignored

The transcript discusses the activities of Jimmy Savile at Leeds General Infirmary, where he had an office for about 10 years. Allegations suggest he used his celebrity status to abuse young people, with 300 potential victims identified by the Metropolitan Police. Savile's official access to NHS hospitals, including Stoke Mandeville and Broadmoor, meant staff did not challenge him. The NHS Trust at Leeds General Infirmary stated that access to the nurses' home was strictly controlled and denied any improper use of the office. Labour has called for an independent inquiry into these allegations.
