For anyone that has been living off grid for the last two weeks, the grooming gang scandal is one that spans decades, where potentially hundreds of thousands of young white working class girls were groomed, raped, abused and forced into crime by Pakistani men.
This scandal has been known about for many years, I did a quick search on my X account and found so many tweets of mine regarding this absolute horror, but the crimes are not the only shocking revelation in many of these cases, it is a fact that a cover up includes councillors, police, MPs and social services. Something I cannot even begin to comprehend.
In many cases, victims were demonised, blamed and even arrested, something I find quite unbelievable.
Yvette Cooper has announced five local inquiries on grooming gangs
GB News
Successive Governments have shyed away from bringing a full inquiry into the Pakistani grooming gangs, with the last report, The Jay report, failing to look into nearly all the areas that these gangs operated and failing to highlight the ethnicity of the main perpertrators of these heinous crimes. Let’s be honest, we know why, and it is the same reason that these crimes were overlooked, covered up and played down… simply, for a fear of stoking racial tensions in these towns. So why has this all blown up again?
Because of Charlie Peters’ investigative reporting at GB NEWS, which caught the eye of the world’s most followed and wealthiset man, Elon Musk.
Musk went on a social media rampage, posting Charlie Peters’ findings, GB News commentators and shared stories of some of the victims, even sharing court transcripts from a case, which highlighted the true horrors of these crimes to the world.
It is now a huge political story, with every party either trying to out do the other or protect themselves from the failings of their own which is not going away.
Elon Musk sent this nuclear, our media cannot hide, they cannot shy away, especially with the brave reporting and relentlessness of GB News.
GB NEWS are not letting this go and presenters are filling their shows with accounts from victims, from MPs, and former police employees and people that are in the mix of what went on.
One notable voice on the channel has been Maggie Oliver, who runs a foundation to support the victims of these gangs, she has been fearless in calling out Keir Starmer for his past failures and also pushed for a national inquiry, she even gained a place on the front page of The Daily Mail, so the nation really is waiting and watching for developments.
Yvette Cooper surprised many and has finally announced the Government will sanction five local inquiries into the rape gangs, but I fear this is simply a £5million PR exercise to try and stop the anger and abuse currently being directed at them.
A local inquiry in just five towns will NOT uncover a national problem, it will NOT force anyone to come forward and testify, this solves nothing.
This isn’t good enough, the nation now knows that there were 50 towns affected by these gangs, in fact, the world knows because of Elon Musk and five inquires won’t cut it.. nice try Yvette, this won’t shut us up.
As a father, I’m keen to want a national inquiry, the thought of this ever happening to one of my daughter’s, fills me with horror, how could these kids be let down so badly?
We must all keep applying the pressure, so write to your MP, message them on socials and get behind the Reform Party and those Conservative MPs still pushing for one.
So where do we go from here?… I truly believe with more victim revelations, more aggressive reporting from the likes of GB News and Reform MPs applying the pressure, Starmer will have to eventually fold, if not, I believe that this Government could end up collapsing from within.
THERE IS NOTHING MORE SACRED TO US BRITS THAN OUR CHILDREN, you’ve been warned Keir!
