To think that Sadiq Khan needs investigated?

Heres Julie Bindel, you know that raging EDL type hatemonger.

But on the key issues of ethnicity that I had asked her to examine, she has found continued failure to gather proper robust national data, despite concerns being raised going back very many years. In the local data that the audit examined from 3 police forces they identify clear evidence of over-representation among suspects of Asian and Pakistani-heritage men. And she refers to “examples of organisations avoiding the topic altogether for fear of appearing racist or raising community tensions”.

It’s been referenced repeatedly. Sonia Sodha is booting the boot in on this “lets not talk about ethnicity” thing on twitter. Godbless her, I love that woman.

I’m asian and I personally don’t feel like people trying to avoid offense are doing me any favours. I feel like they put the feelings of men above the safety of children. I honestly don’t give a flying fuck about anything other than girls and women at this point.

There is always something more important than the rights of children and women not to be harmed.

After the revolution dear.

Yes, I read that ealrier in the thread. I cant see where it says "this type of offending" is carried out predominately by muslim men.

There is a terrifying amount of CSA going on and it all needs addressing. It is of course necessary to look at grooming by predominately Pakisatani men but not make the mistake of thinking that's going to solve the problem of CSA.

The truth is that there has not been enough PUBLICITY about this issue until recently as it has been covered up for decades.

If you don’t know about the data then you should read Baroness Casey’s report https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/baroness-caseys-audit-of-group-based-child-sexual-exploitation-and-abuse
The Home Secretary said “But on the key issues of ethnicity that I had asked her to examine, she has found continued failure to gather proper robust national data, despite concerns being raised going back very many years. In the local data that the audit examined from 3 police forces they identify clear evidence of over-representation among suspects of Asian and Pakistani-heritage men. And she refers to “examples of organisations avoiding the topic altogether for fear of appearing racist or raising community tensions”.

I don't know the DATA points to "this type of offending" being predominately muslim men.

It's certain that much of the PUBLICITY is around gang based grooming by prodominately muslim men.

Should we ignore what’s happening in London right now and talk about historic cases of sexual abuse instead ?
Or is that “diverting our attention “?

Of course it bloody is.

They are doing a great job at diverting our attention though aren't they 😂

That’s a very partial interpretation of what happened.

Thanks. Very interesting.
Love Julie Bindel.

Julie Bindel has published a very interesting piece on Unherd today titled “Why is London ignoring its grooming gangs?”

No, authority turned a blind eye because they were sexually abusing the same victims, but a lot of people thinks thats okay as the figures in authority were largely white, so gloss over it ever happening.

The issue for me is that grooming gangs elsewhere in the country were allowed to continue for years . People in authority turned a blind eye because they didn’t want to be accused of racism. I don’t want that to happen in London.
I want the safety of young girls to come first.

All the data points to this particular type of offending to be predominantly muslim men. No-one is saying that most sex offenders are muslim.

Khan saw the reports talking about this kind of offending and then pretended it isn’t happening and now the mets come out and said it is happening.

Someone is being dishonest here.

As a born and bred Londoner I’m hoping Khan runs again so I can vote for him. Again. Great Mayor who loves this city.

I don't think anyone can say that there aren't grooming gangs in London. The issue is that certain individuals keep including the word Pakistani which is race bating, Islamically and dangerous as it creates a false narrative around these groups because the evidence shows they are slightly less likely that white individuals, therefore it makes it easier for white people to get away with it (85% as of last years stats)
Yaxley Lennon and his ilk do not give a monkeys about the safety and girls, they are just fueled by Islamic Hatred and this thread is a byproduct of that.

Another day, another boo hiss Sadiq Khan thread. Boring.

For those whose sensibilities are offended by the facts reported in the Express:

And Baroness Casey’s report which describes issues in London, particularly with reference to how different definitions obscure data:

@CloudSky I know the thread has moved on, but I absolutely agree.

It’s outlined in the Express article. Maggie Oliver, who knows more than anyone, thinks it clearly indicates the same pattern as grooming rape gangs, and the investigation shows that Khan has seen these reports. You have Oliver and Chris Wild, people who deal with abuse on a daily basis, and victims of grooming giving their stories, all in the article.

You know, it might be worth your while to read responses by other posters here. Some of which provide useful information. Such as quoting what Khan said to Susan Hall on 1st July 2025; this has already been posted twice, a few hours ago, but so you don't have to go looking for it:

"My understanding from speaking to the police, and she will appreciate, I have done on a regular basis, is - and I choose my words carefully for the reasons she will understand - there are no reported cases and also no indication of the grooming gangs that she is concerned about in London. That is not to say it could not have happened for the reasons she has said, but the MPS has been quite proactive in trying to see if there are any issues in relation to the stuff reported in other parts of the country."

Pretty clear really. He's speaking directly to Hall. He's telling her what the MPS has told him. And what the MPS has told him is that there is no indication of the "rape gangs" - the words Hall herself used - in London.

You've been vehemently adamant that there "must be" CSA gangs operating in London, and that Khan is actively ignoring the existence of these. So, it's now time for you to provide the factual, verified information that backs up your claim. And by verified information I don't mean the badly-written slop published by the Express you linked to before; that contained unevidenced assertions with nothing to substantiate them.

You must have got your knowledge that there are gangs operating in London, and Khan is actively ignoring them, from somewhere. Show us from where - provide the links to these credible sources of information so we can see for ourselves.

We don’t know without an investigation, do we?

And if he has no knowledge of grooming rape gangs, why didn’t he tell Susan Hall “I have no knowledge of grooming rape gangs”?

And yes, I would expect the Mayor of London to have knowledge of such matters given its huge importance. If he doesn’t, that means criminal matters of huge importance aren’t being passed onto him. He somehow knew all about other criminal matters though didn’t he? Criminal numbering and so on? But not willing to talk about grooming gangs?

So why? Is it not as important as those things he did know about? Or he hasn’t had that information passed on to him? Or he knows and wouldn’t say?

No, I posted the link to point out that all men of all races are being subject to scrutiny over their handling of such things. Who is Rowley’s boss?

Oh my dear god.

Do you honestly think khan has more knowledge about criminal cases than Rowley?!
