The fact that the MSM covered it up is disingenuous. The story was broken by the Times, covered by the BBC, most major newspapers, had several public inquiries and was featured in several documentaries. Starmer as DPP in conjunction with the TV overturned the CPS decision not to prosecute due to the inconsistencies with the stories of the girls involved and the failure to obtain a conviction due to this fact. There have been failures during all governments involved, sometimes due to cultural sensitivity, sometimes due to the practicality of mounting an expensive prosecution (at a time when CPS funds have been cut) when the chances of success are slim due to unreliable witnesses or failures by the police due to feeling that they would be accused of racism. But there has been an inquiry and the recommendations have been slow to be implemented. This is an ongoing issue and not something that Musk has just discovered and put on the agenda. The wheels of government and society are slow. see how the cladding scandal after Grenfell are still playing out. This does not mean that this is being covered up. This is a sad fact of government and also of inaction by the Tories who wanted to seem like they were doing something but kicked any legislation into the long grass due to the cost and complexity of action.
There is an issue with a small section of the Pakistani community at the lower rungs of society who want to satisfy their lust by exploiting young girls because they are forced into cultural arranged loveless marriages. This has been extensively investigated and steps are being taken to prosecute and address these issues. Not due to the tweets of the far right and trolls but because the government are taking appropriate steps at the speed at which government moves. The agenda of government should not be privy to the whims of trolls and self seeking football hooligans. This should be done at the behest and in support of the victims and issues that are best understood by the people involved and with their consultation. This unfortunately is not simple, unlike internet trolls like to say.
internet Trolls have no understanding of what is happening in the UK and are only using the situation for political capital and is only tweeting in support of racist football hooligans, who have been jailed for contempt of a British court for nearly collapsing an abuse case against the interest of victims. They do not care about the victims or justice but solely to amplify their political agenda or for lolz and to spread chaos. We also have political leaders in this country playing into the hands of internet trolls and giving them airtime, little realising that all they are doing to spreading chaos before moving on to their next area of chaos. This is not in the best interests of our society and we should shut them down and not give them airtime.
we need to prepare for the collapse of NATO, the spread of the war in Ukraine to most of Eastern Europe, the collapse of world trade, the fracturing of international detente and the rise of nations state, an imminent global recession, the exacerbation of the climate crisis and regional extreme weather patterns and foot shortages and the rise of regionalised wars. The government should not be swayed into reacting to trolls that sway public opinion towards the aims of billionaires to serve their own agenda.
