Human Events: UK MP demands full accountability for cover up of child rape ‘grooming gangs’ where Arab men raped British girls for decades while Labor, police looked the other way
UK Conservative lawmakers are calling for a full investigation into the historic "grooming gangs" scandal after the Labour Party rejected Oldham Council's request for an inquiry. Labour's safeguarding minister, Jess Phillips, stated it wasn't Parliament's role to investigate, prompting criticism from Tories and public figures like JK Rowling and Elon Musk.
The scandal involves decades of child sexual exploitation, primarily by Pakistani Muslim men, with allegations of a cover-up by authorities fearing accusations of racism. Reports indicate that officials had knowledge of the abuse but failed to act, leading to calls for accountability and a thorough investigation into the matter.
