🚨NAMED AND SHAMED🚨 GBNews has REVEALED the NINE Labour officials who worked behind the scenes to OBSTRUCT a national inquiry into grooming gangs Any guesses who? [Thread listing all of them 🧵]
YVETTE COOPER Even after admitting that the gangs operating in Britain committed "appalling" and "some of the most vile crimes that we are talking about" The Home Secretary REPEATEDLY denied any requests for an inquiry before saying in an interview we've already had an inquiry
BRIDGET PHILLIPSON Phillipson, who is also Starmer’s Equalities chief, accused those calling for an inquiry of being "bandwagon jumpers" who "don't care about children". She denied an inquiry was ever needed
SADIQ KHAN He has repeatedly refused to answer if there is any evidence of Grooming Gangs operating in London. On one occasion he pretended he didn't even know what they were asking "Can she define what you mean by that?”. He then crushed a bill to have an inquiry in London
LISA NANDY The Culture Secretary rejected calls for a grooming gangs inquiry, instead hailing the previous Jay Inquiry for taking evidence from thousands of victims. "That inquiry found what every inquiry has found" She then claimed there was no need for another one
WES STREETING The Health Secretary rejected an inquiry saying "there are people in my community who have either Pakistani heritage or look different, who are now more fearful today than they were before.” Disgraceful
JESS PHILLIPS In parliament the safeguarding minister let slip that there was in fact a COVER UP of these crimes but then went on to claim we still shouldn't have a national inquiry She also rejected a local inquiry in Oldham after campaigners fought for so long to have one
DAVID LAMMY He criticised Elon Musk saying he was 'peddling mistruths' on grooming gangs He also rejected an inquiry after saying "By singling out Asians we not only pander to the far-right but increase the risk of violence and abuse against minorities across the country."
LUCY POWELL The leader of the House of Commons WASN'T sacked or forced to resign for saying 'oh we want to blow that little trumpet now' when the issue of Grooming Gangs was brought up. She also claimed they were a 'dog whistle' A disgrace.
KEIR STARMER The Prime Minister said anyone calling for an inquiry was 'jumping on a far right bandwagon', he also said people like Tommy Robinson were spreading 'mistruths and misinformation' He has done everything he could to stop this inquiry But the truth will prevail
