Pakistan won't take back the Rochdale rape gang. Ringleaders Adil Khan and Qari Rauf were jailed for leading a nine-strong gang who sexually assaulted 47 girls, some of them as young as 12 years old, after plying them with drink and drugs.

They were initially jailed in 2012 and then set for deportation back in 2018. But they destroyed their Pakistani passports. So that's that then, is it?

So what about the most recent grooming gang, some of whom were convicted just last week? I believe all four of them were born in Pakistan. I mean, if they just destroy their passport, are they Britain's problem now too?

Well, do we have any leverage over Pakistan? I think we do. Between 2015 and 2019, Pakistan was the largest recipient of British foreign aid. We're set to give them £133million this year alone.

'Pakistan won't take back the Rochdale rape gang'

So withhold it, then block it. What about the visas that we keep dishing out? There are approximately 1.6 million people of Pakistani origin living in the United Kingdom.

We'll just say, sorry, you can't send people to Britain to live, work, and probably claim benefits in some cases as well, let's be honest, and then not take back your rapists.

It's not like Pakistan seems to care about the quality of people they allow to live there, is it?

And for all this talk about international law, the Pakistani Government doesn't seem to care about international law. They forcefully deported nearly 855,000 Afghans in the last two years, even though those people face persecution by the Taliban.

So Pakistan faced huge levels of criticism for this, from charities, from international lawyers, from all sorts. Do you know what they did? They doubled down. They just deported more of them in April.

I mean, we are about to have a national grooming gang inquiry. We all know what that's going to unearth, don't we? We know that there's going to be a lot of Pakistani men involved.

'We all know what that's going to unearth, don't we?'

So down the back of the sofa, we're going to find loads of them that we need to deport.

This Labour Government is, frankly, internationally regarded as such a bad negotiator that Pakistan, instead of being utterly ashamed that Pakistan has sent us so many rapists and paedophiles, they are instead demanding that Labour accepts this.

Honestly, I mean, if this Government can't get Pakistani men who raped our girls on a plane back to their homeland, then they are even more useless than I thought.
