Grooming gangs still at large

Spot on.
Sailing close to thread deletion though

I know. And this is something that needs to be talked about. This is why the problem continues. With people afraid to talk about it. With white working class girls as collateral damage with their lives ruined, as they don't seem to matter. I don't see any white privilege here.

This is still a huge problem in Sheffield and Rotherham. Nothing gets done.

I listened to this last week. This woman's story is absolutely shocking. It's a really difficult to hear, but i think it's important that we listen when these survivors are brave enough to speak

They don't say that though. They say the reason they don't do anything about the perpetrators is for fear they will be branded racist and community sensitivity. They don't have any worry about being branded racist when targeting certain communities about, e.g., terrorism offences. The police (as a class, NAPALT) don't give a fuck about female victims of male violence, and that's the bottom line. They may take action if a high profile, high press attention, high value woman is the victim, but ultimately, that's to cover their own arses.

As I understand it, these are predominantly working class and vulnerable girls. It seems there’s an attitude of ‘oh well, that’s just what happens to girls like that, what can you do’.

It reminds me of the report into institutional racism within the Metropolitan police where the attitude towards black boys becoming victim to knife crime was a similar one of ‘oh well, that’s just what happens to boys like that, what can you do?’

Assistant Chief Constable Catherine Hankinson of West Yorkshire Police said: "Tackling serious sexual offences is a top priority for West Yorkshire Police."

Do they not believe this constitutes a “serious” sexual offence? Or are they just as ineffective at tackling all their other priorities?

Agree, utterly corrupt- why aren’t W Yorkshire police being investigated?

Don't be ridiculous. White women have so much more privilege than brown men, so how can they possibly be victims?

Of course, I am not serious - but many white liberals believe this, and corrupt police seize on these liberal beliefs to justify their own inaction and misogyny. And that is why the current trend of white woman privilege and "Karening" is so dangerous and pernicious, and will only lead to women being ignored even more than they already are. I say this as someone who is not white.

I won't say anything more than yes, I know and agree with pp. In case the thread gets deleted.

won't say why I believe the police do nothing about this as my post would no doubt get deleted

Yes

Can't think of a single thing to say without crossing any lines.
Can I just confirm that South Yorkshire also has this issue.

This is happening across the country.

West Yorkshire police need taking down and re-building. The force is beyond rotten and not fit for purpose.

They say they care about the abuse of girls and women but repeatedly their actions show us otherwise. Meanwhile a complaint about misgendering has them leaping into action
