There were also lots of cases of CSE gangs which weren't correctly investigated for reasons other than nervousness about race. I am sure the Leader of the Opposition is also interested in those.

I'm not so sure

The Times is reporting: 'Rape area councils brand 'Asian Grooming Gangs' a racist term'.

The councils are Oxford, Newcastle, Greater Manchester and Calderdale.

They are majority Labour Councils. I thought it was the left who were big on identity politics?!?

wrong

all they have done is endorse a national motion to classify the term “Asian grooming gangs as Islamophobic.

it clearly says "An investigation in Telford found that up to 1,000 girls had been abused over 40 years - and that some cases had not been investigated because of "nervousness about race".

So you support the RWRs' calls for spending hundreds of millions more of money [that RWRs reckon we don't have] and wasting years on more hot air and hand wringing, for something already known and documented?

And you reckon it's the tories that are the party of fiscal responsibility?

Asia isn't a religion / faith.

You can conclude that there was no nervousness about investigating certain other races. What races were they?

I'm pretty sure Cyril Smith was a white English man.

What do you think he was?
