Nazir Afzal(former chief prosecutor NW England): "When Keir Starmer left the CPS we had the highest conviction rate for child sexual abuse in our history... that's his legacy. Boris Johnson said investigating child sexual abuse was money spaffed up a wall." Feb 22

Labour played politics when girls as young as 11 were raped by Pakistani grooming gangs - how dare they call critics "far right".

Having read graphic detail of how these Pakistani rape gang victims were treated.
Plied with drink and drugs,
Using devices so four men could enter a 12 year old anus simultaneously, being urinated on as punishment and one poor 12 year old soul raped with a broken bottle as further punishment, leaving her with life like bf injuries and the inability to have children,
I'm really struggling to comprehend how any officials, be it civil service, police or even number 10 could ever interpret being raped by a gang of men as a lifestyle choice and claims that they knew what they were doing.
They were vulnerable children. The passing the buck and band wagon statements by politicians who had every opportunity to be outraged at the time is shameful.
As for Mainstream journalists, concentrating on what's happened to Jess Phillips which is very wrong and shouldn't happen, yet have shown no interest in even reading about the atrocities, let alone talking to the victims.. I'm just wondering where their humanity is.
All they're focused on is Elon Musk. Elon has blown the lid off the shame of Britain.
I fear all this publicity for the girls and some boys will be harvested to grab more control of free speech, social media and increase Draconian controls in this country, where police responses to burglary is nearly obsolete yet a hurty tweet can see four coppers at your door to police your vocabulary.
We have Theresa May to thank for that . She introduced the hate speech laws.
No doubt our current disgraceful government will use all of this to empower themselves and all the victims of utter dehumanisation and abject cruelty will get is empty one line platitudes from journalists and politicians, who will simply ...get it out of the way so they can concentrate on Elon Musk allegedly interfering with British politics.
I don't see it like that at all.
As a layman I see one of the biggest failings of many authority figures continuing to save their own sorry backsides being dragged back into the spotlight , where it should have been two decades ago.
It's all about priorities, I don't see the victims even on their lists!
🚨🇬🇧 “Your 13 year old daughter was ra*ed by a man who travelled 18 miles to do so & the Police told you to let it go - otherwise you will be arrested for being racist”
“John don’t go into town - there’s a huge gang of Muslims looking for ya”
British Father threatened by The Police who contacted them over his 13 year old daughter being abused.
This is just one of thousands of shocking similar stories - now you know why Keir Starmer & Labour don’t want further inquiry into this horrific scandal.
Who was instructing The Police?
BREAKING NEWS🔥
Tory Rory Stewart, in his podcast with war criminal Alistair Campbell describes the foreign rape gangs as men who were:
"PAYING FOR SEX"
They were raping girls as young as 10!
What a sick twisted little Lord Charles!
On the UK's biggest political podcast, Rory Stewart describes the grooming gangs as confined to just two towns, involving 90 or so men "paying for sex."
That's quite a way to describe men raping children, some as young as 10 years-old, and some of whom were raped so brutally that they required hysterectomies.
What's crazy is that this actually seems to be the extent of his knowledge on the scandal, and this is a man who was once in contention to be leader of the Conservative Party.
@CharlotteCGill Come off it. And what about all the dirty and offshore money that's always bankrolled the Tories? Should we ask about the Russian money. Show some perspective or you just a stooge.
@jeremycorbyn Over half of the hospitals in Europe are privately owned and are part of systems that give far better outcomes. You're irrelevant and a moron.
I fundamentally don't understand why there should be 1.6 million Pakistanis in Britain.
They could simply live in Pakistan.
Why should they instead live halfway around the world, in a place with a different culture and religion, and where a different language is spoken?
@supertanskiii The inquiry states quite clearly.
"None of the areas examined kept data on the ethnicity of victims and alleged perpetrators"
Try reading the inquiry before trying to score political points.
We’ve seen more mainstream attention and scrutiny on the Pakistani-Muslim grooming gangs scandal this week than ever.
How does Channel 4, one of Britain’s largest broadcasters, respond? By airing a documentary about fake grooming claims.
Do they have no shame?
How dare they
@deegandeegan111@BladeoftheS Do they? Most poor people take out far more than they put in. An ever smaller group pay more tax than they services they consume. You'll be worse off.
