Links - 1st March 2026 (1 - UK Grooming Gangs)

Fury as Pakistan gets £19m to tackle child abuse as UK ‘fails at home' - "Outrage erupted today after revelations that the UK is ploughing £19million into Pakistan to combat child sexual exploitation, even as a damning report exposes failures to safeguard British children from grooming gangs dominated by suspects of Pakistani heritage. The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) funding, aimed at curbing illegal migration and abuse networks, has already disbursed £498,873, with £18.7million more pledged through 2030. Critics slammed the move as a betrayal of domestic priorities, pointing to crumbling public services and unchecked predators at home. A Government-commissioned inquiry earlier this year laid bare the crisis, warning of "clear evidence of over-representation among suspects of Asian and Pakistani-heritage men" in child sexual exploitation cases across Britain. However, while trials drag on for years and social workers buckle under caseloads, taxpayer cash flows abroad. Grooming gang whistleblower Maggie Oliver, a former detective who exposed Rochdale's horrors, was deeply unhappy at the revelation... "We have public services on their knees through lack of funding, policing unfit for purpose, three to four year waits for trials, social workers carrying unmanageable workloads, prisons full and overflowing, sex offenders inadequately monitored and yet we can still give away millions to Pakistan."  Ms Oliver continued: "We need to get our priorities right and as I watch our once incredible country falling apart, and the public seemingly powerless to stop it, this yet again clearly shows to me that we need a total clear out of the incompetent politicians and civil servants behind the scenes who are clearly unaccountable. It must change.""

suzanne moore on X - "People in The Guardian referring to rape of children as part of a "culture war" shows their priorities. You either believe in the safeguarding of women and girls or you don't."

Meme - Matt Goodwin @GoodwinMJ: "Look at this now deleted tweet from @Sathnam  at The Times
-“innocent white women” in quotes aka children who were raped
-the suggestion grooming is rooted in white racism
-and shameless book plug
It’s disgusting attitudes like his that led to the rape gangs being ignored"
Sathnam Sanghera @Sathnam: "Of course, the vivid fear of "innocent white women" being violated by brown men was one of the great drivers of British imperial racism. The fear even led to Indian soldiers being policed in Brighton as they were treated for injuries sustained while defending the empire in WWI. #Empireworld"
Seth Abramson: "Elon has lost it. There are 3.4 million girls 14 and under in England. Elon just wrote-like a sociopath-that 1 OUT OF EVERY 13 SUCH GIRLS IN ENGLAND is right now being "systematically raped by migrant gangs.""
If you defy the left wing agenda, you are a sociopath and need to be sent to an asylum, like in the Soviet Union

Elon Musk has ripped the cloak of deceit off Britain’s grooming gangs scandal - "Since he entered Downing Street six intolerable months ago, the Prime Minister’s ability to strike exactly the wrong note on any given occasion has never failed him, but his denunciation of Elon Musk for “spreading lies and misinformation” about Pakistani-heritage Muslim child-rape gangs is a whole orchestra of discordant deceit. Many Britons feel deeply grateful that [he] was moved to intervene in this disgusting scandal, I suspect, and Musk has certainly provoked more soul-searching in 10 days than Westminster managed in 10 years. The Prime Minister’s imputation that those who want a full-throated national inquiry into the evil gangs, and the cowardly state apparatchiks who covered them up, were simply seeking to “jump on a bandwagon of the far-Right” is obscene. Apparently, thousands of survivors who endured mass rape as children (20 men awaiting their turn downstairs, one woman recalled) are far-Right for wanting answers and accountability. Is it far-Right, Prime Minister, to object that your primary torturer was released early after a derisory sentence and now lurks menacingly outside your home?... Sir Keir spoke out of narrow party self-interest, only sounding vaguely passionate when addressing what really troubles him: Islamophobia.  Exactly as he did back in July after the massacre of children in Southport. Berated by a crowd of locals whom he refused to speak to after hastily laying a wreath, Starmer couldn’t wait to dash to a mosque where he vowed to “take every step possible” to keep the Muslim community safe. That meant creating a new violent disorder unit to deal with all the “far-Right thugs” who, for some reason, objected to three little girls at a Taylor Swift dance class being slaughtered. Can’t think why.     People on social media who, in the heat of the moment, posted deeply unsavoury, inflammatory reactions or retweeted “conspiracy theories” were arrested and jailed with an alacrity and force that was entirely absent when it came to catching the foul fiends who committed some of the most despicable crimes imaginable. (One police officer explained to a distraught father that his daughter being raped might actually “teach her a lesson”.)  In both cases, we see the same sly, leftie-liberal playbook. Minimise the rape/killing/trafficking of young girls. Call it “grooming” and not what it is: raping children. Refuse to disclose the ethnic identity of the perpetrators to prevent “racism”. Accuse anyone who mentions the religion or ethnicity of the perpetrators of bigotry and “dog-whistle” politics. Under pressure, admit that the perpetrators are “Asians” (to the understandable anger of Sikhs, Hindus and Christians). Deflect attention from the sheer stomach-churning horror of the crimes and the wild, unappeasable sorrow of the victims and switch the focus to the “inappropriate” language or “harmful rhetoric” of people who are prepared to call out the most depraved assaults and most shocking cover-up in British history. Sir Keir genuinely seems more outraged about Elon Musk calling safeguarding minister Jess Phillips a “genocidal rape apologist” for her refusal to authorise a national inquiry into the Oldham scandal (she insists the council can have its own inquiry) than he is about the 12-year-old who was driven at night to a Yorkshire wood where she was forced to give oral sex to at least 10 men (more cars kept arriving as word spread) before being left alone in the dark.  If a prime minister can’t empathise, just for a few seconds, with the terror that child experienced then he shouldn’t be leading the country. But Starmer was clearly far more at ease saying he was “very shocked and angered” at the killing of George Floyd, a black American for whom he fell to one knee. As I have learnt since Essex police called on me over an alleged hate crime, British institutions, from Parliament to the police, are obsessed with “protected characteristics” enshrined in the Equality Act. In 2013, if you were a white working-class kid in care in Keighley, who was passed around from uncle to cousin to nephew, forget it. No characteristics worth protecting, love. In fact, in the unlikely event that poor child had ever plucked up courage to go to the council or the police, her complaint would have been viewed as unhelpful to the greater goal of anti-racism and diversity. Had the ethnic profiles been reversed – the child was black or Muslim and the bastards who pimped her out white – you can bet we would never have heard the end of it. The British Establishment had something in common with the rapists: they saw the girls as white trash. Viewing everything through the prism of race is a disease of the elite liberal and bureaucratic class, not just here but throughout a self-loathing Western world which sees merit in every culture but its own... Does Sanghera actually think thousands of brutalised white girls in up to 50 British towns and villages from Rochdale to Oxford made up their ordeals in order to cast racist aspersions on innocent brown men?... Holding the opinion that non-white people are somehow always victims is a sign of social superiority, marking one out from ghastly fascist proles like Tommy Robinson. Whatever Robinson’s manifold flaws, he inspires huge loyalty among his supporters because he has fought like a lion for girls from his social class. Girls who former Labour home secretary Jack Straw admitted were regarded as “easy meat” by some of his Pakistani constituents... Lucy Allan, who was the Conservative MP for Telford from  2015-2024, explained to me how even those who do try to fight for the victims are thwarted and obstructed. After she’d met survivors in her Shropshire town, Allan started speaking out in Parliament. The pushback was intense. “There was a co-ordinated official response by people in positions of power. Shaun Davies, Telford Council Leader (now the town’s Labour MP), immediately published a letter to the Home Secretary stating that no inquiry into Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) was necessary. He backed up his assertion with claims that we now know were false. Multiple senior men were asked to be co-signatories to his claims and they all readily agreed.” Instead of trying to right heinous wrongs, Telford councillors set about discrediting the messengers. Lucy Allan was accused of “lying, causing division, racism, being unbalanced, irrational, stupid and motivated not by a desire to help victims but to score political points. This narrative was relentlessly pushed for as long as I campaigned on the issue. It had the intended effect of ensuring that the voice I sought to be for victims would not be heard.”... “The newly-minted Junior Minister for Safeguarding, Vicky Atkins, told me not to speak to the media on the subject as ‘you do not understand the issues’."... The Government tells us there is no need for another national inquiry, instead they will implement the recommendations of the 2022 Jay report on child sexual abuse (CSA).  But CSA is not the same as Group Localised Child Sexual Exploitation (GLCSE)"

Annats 🇦🇺 🏴‍☠️ 🐾🦖💜🇮🇱🎗️🇬🇧 on X - ".."The Chief Constable of West Mercia Police said: “you wouldn’t want to be known as a troublemaker like Sarah Champion. It will harm your reputation and career.” The policing of these terrible crimes against young girls reveals a truly corrupt cesspit in hell."
MPs working on behalf of their constituents are troublemakers

Grooming gang victims to have convictions wiped - "Almost 4,000 police cautions were given to children aged 10 to 18 for prostitution-related offences between 1989 and 1995, according to historic criminal records."

Basil the Great on X - "🚨MAGGIE OLIVER CALLS OUT ISLAM "I have seen nationalities that are not Pakistani men in these gangs, many of them are Afganistani or Iranian or Iraqi but they are still all Muslim.""

Three men 'who raped teenager in Rotherham' told her 'this is what white girls are for', court hears - "Describing one of the times the teenager was allegedly raped by Hussain, Mr Bailey told the court she later said: 'He said it was my own fault, I'd led him on. 'I shouldn't have walked around in what I was dressed in. 'I deserved it and that is what white girls were for.' Mr Bailey then told the jury of eight women and four men: 'He continued to call her things like "white sl**" when he saw her.'"
Only white people can commit racially-aggravated crimes

Kemi Badenoch: Grooming gangs inquiry must probe ‘insidious’ cousin marriage links - "Baroness Casey’s grooming gangs report last week found “two-thirds of suspects offended within groups” that were “based on pre-existing relationships — mainly brothers and cousins”.  Academic Dr Patrick Nash told the Sunday Times this weekend that “Cousin marriage sustains close-kin networks which incentivise clan members both to dehumanise out-group victims and to suppress knowledge of criminal activity to preserve family honour”.  Dr Nash’s research has been central to Tory efforts to ban the practice, first proposed in a private member’s bill.  YouGov polling last month found that 77 per cent of Brits are in favour of banning cousin marriage, with just 9 per cent opposing a ban."

Report on UK grooming gangs says 4% Pakistanis behind 64% of the sex abuse crimes in Rotherham, still hyphenates perpetrators with 'Asians' - "The National Audit on Group-Based Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse has made disturbing revelations in the UK grooming gangs scandal... Describing features of grooming gangs, the report mentions a point requiring special attention, “A 2020 Home Office paper noted that in several cases they examined, offenders and victims came from different communities, and officers suggested that disregard for victims from outside the perpetrators’ own community may be an enabling factor for offenders.” While the 2020 Home Office paper missed out on mentioning the names of the community, it essentially means that Muslim rape gangs, mostly of Pakistani origin, harboured disregard, rather hatred for non-Muslims and this hatred and perverted mindset of asserting religious dominance by sexually exploiting non-Muslim women, has been an enabling factor behind these crimes.  It also noted that empathy with victims is a likely barrier to offending behaviour, and therefore disregard for victims – whether through misogyny or so-called ‘othering’ – enables offenders to overcome this barrier. “Operation Stovewood consider this to have been a factor at play in Rotherham, where nearly two-thirds of offenders were from a Pakistani ethnic background, and the majority of the girls were White,” the report says.  The report mentions that Pakistani men are responsible for 64 per cent of cases of child sexual exploitation in Rotherham.   Another disturbing pattern traced in the audit was the deliberate reluctance of the authorities from recording ethnicity of the perpetrators.  “We found that the ethnicity of perpetrators is shied away from and is still not recorded for two-thirds of perpetrators, so we are unable to provide any accurate assessment from the nationally collected data,” the report reads, adding that despite limited data, it was found that most perpetrators were of Asian ethnic backgrounds.  The report found a persistent failure of the UK authorities in creating a proper data set of groomers/rapists or conducting serious case reviews in child-sexual exploitation cases, let alone acting against the perpetrators...   While the report says that flawed data is used repeatedly to dismiss claims about ‘Asian grooming gangs’ as sensationalised, biased or untrue, and that it does a disservice the victims, the report itself does disservice to the victims and law-abiding Asian communities in the UK when it hyphenates Pakistani men with Asian men.  Although it is a progress that the United Kingdom is finally openly the Pakistani origins of grooming gang members, and delving deeper into the ethnicity of the perpetrators, the country is yet to reach the root of menace. It is not a ethnicity problem, it is a problem of religiously-motivated perversion. This perpetuation of this perversion has been facilitated by not only the police which remained too scared to come across as racist by acting against Muslim grooming gangs and politicians who did everything they could to ensure that these Pakistani rape jihadis are never called out, their religious motivations never condemned.  It must be recalled that the Labour Party, which is currently in power in the UK, had in 2019, adopted the All-Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims (APPG) definition of Islamophobia in 2019. This definition essentially implied that criticising Pakistani Muslim grooming gangs/rape gangs is ‘racist’ against Muslims...   Casey’s report has prompted a national inquiry into grooming gangs. However, it must not be forgotten that the British PM Keir Starmer had earlier this year, not only rejected the demands of a national inquiry into the historical child sexual exploitation but also deemed demands for a national inquiry into Pakistani rape gangs a “far-right” position...   Evidently, the fears of appearing Islamophobic and racially insensitive prevented UK authorities from effectively acting against Pakistani Muslim groomers/rapists for years and the Muslim-appeasing political parties of the United Kingdom also ensured that the Muslim community remains sacrosanct to criticism even as members of this community, especially those of Pakistani origins continued to sexually abuse White and other non-Muslim girls.  It must be recalled how Sarah Champion, a Labour Party MP had to apologise for an article published in The Sun in 2017 wherein she wrote that “Britain has a problem with British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls”. She pointed out that the child sexual exploitations being reported in the UK involved “predominantly Pakistani men”, adding that the apprehension of getting labelled ‘racist’ was hindering the investigation by the authorities. “These people are predators, and the common denominator is their ethnic heritage.”  Champion was not only made to apologise under the pressure of Muslim appeasing politicians like Jeremy Corbyn, but also to resign from her position as the shadow minister.  In 2012, Keith Vaz, a Labour Party leader and Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee, downplayed the grooming jihad crimes calling them not racially motivated and emphasised that the entire community should not be ‘stigmatised’. His overemphasis on not singling out the identity of the grooming gang members reflected the Labour Party’s appeasement politics and downplayed the crimes of the grooming gangs involving men of Pakistani origins.   In 2011, former Home Secretary Jack Straw attributed the cultural practices of Pakistani men to their crimes against white girls. He said that Pakistani men see white girls as “easy meat”.  A Nottingham Crown Court judge who convicted two Pakistani men who groomed and raped several minor white girls, downplayed the identity of the perpetrators by asserting that the race of both, the victims and the abusers were ‘coincidental’...   The Casey report further highlighted that the local police knew exactly what was happening for many years, however, they deliberately alert the people, owing to their concerns about community tensions because of links to Pakistani men...   Beginning in the 1980s in the town of Telford, vulnerable girls as young as 11 were picked up, raped, beaten, sold, and even killed by grooming gangs or rape gangs for a full forty years... the UK authorities were reluctant to act and adopted a silence and denial approach against the grooming/rape gangs believing that acting against the Pakistani-origin rapists would reinforce ‘negative stereotypes’ about the ‘minority’ community.  In many cases, instead of arresting the rapists, the police ended up arresting the victims and their families"

Basil the Great on X - "I actually despise Jess Phillips She helped cover this up for years and now she's been dragged to this point where she can't deny that Pakistanis are doing this she instead decides to have a swipe at 'ALL MEN' She blocked the Oldham inquiry She should be in the dock"

BBC Newsnight on X - ""Absolutely not me, I have never turned a blind eye." Jess Phillips MP, Safeguarding Minister, on criticisms that politicians buried their heads in the sand over grooming gangs. #Newsnight"
(((Dan Hodges))) on X - "This is staggering. Jess Phillips literally rejected Oldham Council's request for national support for their inquiry. That's how all this exploded. She literally criticised Katy Lamb for raising the ethnicity of the perpetrators. It's all a matter of public record."

Rupert Lowe MP on X - "The Labour Party agreed to a national inquiry into the rape gangs for one reason - overwhelmingly pressure.  That happened on June 14th. It's now October 12th.  In correspondence with me the responsible minister, Jess Phillips, admitted no Chair has been appointed, no terms of reference have been written, no areas have been identified for review, no investigations have started.  What have they been doing? A genuine question?  I am calling on Jess Phillips to come to Parliament, immediately, and explain in full what has actually been done.  Not what they plan to do. I want to know what they have done in four months.  This is URGENT. Girls continue to be raped and abused by these gangs now. Today. It's happening right now.  This is not good enough. Labour took the headlines for announcing the inquiry, and have achieved absolutely sod all.   In the same way the public demanded action before, it needs to happen again."

‘Grooming gang’ told victims ‘Islam forbids wearing protection’ - "An Asian grooming gang told victims it was forbidden for Muslim men to use condoms, a court has heard.  Six men accused of abusing teenage girls in Rochdale appeared at Manchester Minshull Street Crown Court on Monday.  Alleged ringleader Tahir Rashid, 54, is said to have abused two vulnerable schoolgirls and also to have raped a 12-year-old girl in the late 1980s.  Opening the case, Rossano Scamardella, prosecuting, said: “Unprotected sex was routine. The girls were lied to about it being forbidden for Muslim men to use protection.” The men “cared not a bit about sexually transmitted diseases or unwanted pregnancies”, the prosecutor added.

The Stark Naked Brief. on X - "This is Sabah Kaiser.  She is one of the advisers Labour appointed to the new national grooming gang inquiry panel and a survivor of child sexual abuse herself.  It has now emerged that Kaiser has previously downplayed the disproportionate role of Pakistani and Muslim men in grooming gangs.  She is on record saying that claims that most crimes were committed by Asian men as “destructive, distracting, irresponsible,” and “not based on evidence.”  In reality, the government’s own audit, led by Baroness Casey, later found the opposite.   What's curious...  Kaiser grew up in a Pakistani Muslim household.  Some of her abusers were relatives on her mother’s side who had emigrated from Pakistan to the UK.  In one account, she described being raped on a kitchen table, while an older woman stood guard so younger children would not interrupt.  When she eventually told her mother what had happened, she was told to “go and drown herself.”  In other words, here we have yet another survivor of Pakistani/Muslim child sex abuse who has arguably minimised the very cases that were committed by predominantly Pakistani/Muslim gangs.  This grooming-gang inquiry was supposed to focus on the type of abuse that was systematically concealed...  That being, the organised targeting of white working-class girls and the institutional negligence and complicity that enabled it.  We've already held a general inquiry into child sexual abuse that covered the wider landscape.  What's the point of this inquiry if it doesn't  confront the specific, politically sensitive form of abuse that officials have ignored for decades—and some still do..."

Deport Foreign Criminals on X - "12 Cousins all convicted of Raping the same child, over and over again, sometimes one after the other and always, anywhere they wanted.  These rapists all have two things in common, they’re all Cousins and they all go to the same Mosque. Let that sink in, they all go to the same Mosque and no one says anything !    Yasser Kabir, 25, of Belgrave Road, Keighley, was found guilty on three charges of rape.  Kabir's half-brother, Tauqeer (also known as Toki) Hussain, 23, of Belgrave Road, Keighley, was found guilty of three charges of rape - which included a second victim.  Sufyan (Sufy) Ziarab, 22, of Kendal Mellor Court, Keighley, was convicted of two counts of rape.  His brother, Bilal (Billy or Browny) Ziarab, 21, of Sedgwick Close, Manningham, Bradford, was also found guilty on two rape charges.  Israr Ali (Sari), 19, of Devonshire Street West, Keighley, was found guilty on one rape charge  Nazir Khan (Khany), 23, of Buxton Street, Keighley, was found guilty of rape.  Faisal Khan (Buller) 27, of Buxton Street, Lawkholme, Keighley, was convicted on one rape charge.  Hussain Sardar (Dolly) 19, of Bradford Street, Lawkholme, Keighley, was found guilty on one rape charge.  Saqib Younis (Saqi Butcher), 29, of Bradford Street, Lawkholme, Keighley, was found guilty of one rape charge.  Zain Ali (Droopy), 20, of Buxton Street, Keighley, was convicted on one rape charge.  Taxi driver Mohammed Akram, 63, of Holker Street, Keighley, was found guilty of sexual activity with a child under 16, when he was 59 and she was 14. He had sex with her in his cab.  A 12th man, Khalid Mahmood, 34, care of Ashfield Prison, pleaded guilty to five charges of rape before the trial, we can now report."

Zarah Sultana MP on X - "On Saturday, a woman of Punjabi heritage was raped in a racist attack in Walsall. Last month, a Sikh woman was raped in a racist attack in Oldbury. These horrifying attacks show how racism and misogyny feed each other — fuelled by the rise of fascism and hate. As a woman of colour, I know how real and frightening this threat is.  We must stand together — against racism, fascism and misogyny — and fight for a socialist society built on equality, justice and solidarity."
Russell Quirk on X - "Wow. Wait until you find out about all the Pakistani gangs raping white girls. That’ll really grind your gears. Or not."

Mothin Ali on X - "Racists are now more emboldened to use rape as a weapon of intimidation. This is the second racially aggravated rape - in a matter of months, following other racialised attacks, including on the synagogue in Manchester and the mosque in Peacehaven When politicians, media pundits and the billionaire class continue to sacrifice Black and Brown people for their violent agenda, they endanger us all"
Christopher Talbot on X - "Pakistanis have been racially gang raping white girls for decades, somehow you didn't notice that."

Meme - "250,000+ raped White English girls. i sleep
A single Pakistani raped. real shit"
