Grooming gangs inquiry is welcome, but too late
Spectator (UK)JUN 15
While any inquiry into child sexual exploitation is welcome, this appears to be a politically motivated response to far-right pressure rather than genuine concern for victims. The focus on ethnicity risks stigmatizing entire communities when child sexual abuse occurs across all demographics and backgrounds. Previous inquiries have already examined these issues extensively, and resources would be better spent on implementing existing recommendations rather than launching another lengthy investigation.
