I'm not going to whitewash the Tories' failure to hold people accountable for the betrayal of Britain's young women in the decades-long rape gang scandal.
Tens or hundreds of thousands of British girls were...it's impossible to describe the horrors they faced, or the betrayal by the governments involved. If many of us had our way, the wood chippers could be kept busy for years as they dispensed justice to everybody involved.
But the current malefactors are the Labour government, which has been doing everything it can to slow-walk the inquiry into what happened and who was responsible for the betrayals. No doubt one of the main reasons is that Labour politicians are deeply implicated, as is Keir Starmer himself.
Starmer, you see, was head of the Crown Prosecution Service at the height of the abuses, and it isn't really clear that all the abuses have stopped yet. He opposed the idea of conducting any inquiry, calling it "far-right," and reversed course only because the political pressure was too intense to ignore.
When I say that Labour is slow-walking the process, I am not exaggerating. The official report will not be released until 2029, five years after it was initially authorized under great pressure.
Britain needs to understand the sophisticated level of coordination between the rape gangs - it goes far deeper than anybody realises.

This is not simply dispersed groups of savages.
This is coordinated, right across the country. The tactics are well rehearsed, and well drilled. They know EXACTLY what they are doing.
Nothing is off limits to these people - nothing.
And there is ZERO appetite in Westminster or the media to even discuss it.
This is all so much worse than anybody knows.
Rupert Lowe, a newly elected Reform UK MP, has done something the British government has not: gotten to work getting the facts out and helping the victims find a voice. He crowdfunded an "unofficial" but highly credible inquiry that gathered as much government data as could be gotten from freedom of information requests, and began taking testimony in public.
And the scandal is SO MUCH WORSE than any of us could imagine. It's not so much that it was impossible to cobble together a picture of the horrors and betrayals of the young British women who were abused for years; it's that laying it all out on the table, and hearing from one victim after another about how they suffered and how government officials betrayed them, is absolutely heartbreaking in a way that having the information dispensed over years in dribs and drabs cannot communicate.

Government officials didn't just look away. Some actually profited from selling girls to their abusers. Police would arrest girls, return them to their abusers, or call them prostitutes to dismiss their complaints.

Rapists walked into group homes and got to choose which girls they wanted. Not only did the authorities do nothing about it, but they also punished the girls for reporting the abuse.

Some of these girls were abducted and taken to Pakistan, and many of those are still missing to this day.

Even people who tried to help the girls faced discipline. This goes far beyond government officials covering things up for the sake of multiculturalism; it wasn't just looking the other way. They were in on it.

Is it any wonder that the British establishment has done everything it could to bury this? For decades, they knew what was going on and buried it, either because they were complicit themselves or to maintain the fiction that "diversity is our strength."

Who were the victims? They were considered disposable, coming mainly from the lower classes, and as you can see, many of them were wards of the state. Girls who were in group homes were sold by the people charged with caring for them, and dismissed by the doctors and social workers whose job was to ensure their health and safety.
Parents would beg for help from the police, who obviously were in on it at some level.

There are other Members of Parliament, even from Labour, who have had the courage to show up at the inquiry. There are still people of conscience in government.
But not enough. It has taken a Reform UK MP to help these victims get their stories out and to start to lay the facts on the table and force people to look at them.
Thousands and thousands and thousands of girls were put through physical and psychological torture by these gangs. It continues today.

I know it's difficult to see these testimonies given to our inquiry. But please read it. Digest it.

Starmer calls this "far right."

Will there be justice for these girls? Or will Labour just keep delaying and delaying until they can say "Move On?"
