Rupert Lowe kept his promise and held the privately funded independent grooming gang inquiry. He presented some of the harrowing testimonies from survivors at Monday's e-petition debate in Parliament, about the mandatory collection of data on the ethnicity, religion, and nationality of child abuse offenders.
Reform and Conservative MPs also attended and made valuable contributions.
But independent Muslim MP Ayoub Khan used his speech to blame white men for the crimes, and accused those talking about grooming gangs of "revealing a prejudice" and being "far less interested in victims than in validating their own hatred of ethnic minorities, Muslims, migrants and foreign nationals."
Labour MP Jonathan Brash did the same, saying, "the vast majority of perpetrators are not from grooming gangs or ethnic minority backgrounds", and that "It is of genuine concern to me that we do not narrow the focus of this debate" by discussing grooming gangs.
Liberal Democrat MP Cameron Thomas used his speech to accuse Elon Musk of starting riots in Britain, and Rupert Lowe of not really caring about victims because of his large following on X.
He said he is "proud of the enrichment that cultural diversity has brought to our own," and that "this issue has been weaponised by the far right and deployed by its propagandists to sow racial, cultural and religious division."
Grooming gang denial should be a career-ending offence. It is the worst atrocity that our country has ever endured, and is still going on today. Many perpetrators have evaded justice. The Pakistani community know it's going on, and covers it up. The state is complicit, concerned more about "community cohesion" than protecting British children.
The culprits and communities which produce them must be expelled. The complicit officials must be punished. And every politician obstructing justice will be remembered as a traitor.
