Suella Braverman’s focus on the ethnicity of grooming gangs is “dangerous” for victims, the former chief prosecutor who brought the Rochdale abusers to justice told theipaper
Mr Afzal welcomed the Government’s announcement on mandatory reporting but suggested it had come a decade after prosecutors, including Labour leader and former director of public prosecutions, Sir Keir Starmer, asked for it.
“Children are less safe than they were a decade ago and that’s because the people who could make them safe and keep them safe are just not there,” he said. Asked if the focus on British-Pakistani grooming gangs was appropriate, Mr Sunak said independent reports into abuse in Rochdale, Rotherham and Telford showed victims and whistleblowers were ignored by social workers, politicians and the police “due to cultural sensitivity and political correctness”, stressing: “that’s not right.”to tell the truth” about grooming gangs.
The Home Office also doubled down on the rhetoric. A source said: “This is about grooming gangs, you’ve got to look at the Casey report, the Jay inquiry, they all talk about Pakistani-heritage men, the British-Pakistani community and several reports have been clear about the problem within that community.
