Grooming gangs: Why has a public inquiry been announced now?
Yvette Cooper has revealed the findings of a review into child sex abuse by grooming gangs to MPs.
The home secretary said Baroness Louise Casey’s review into child sex abuse by grooming gangs found suspects were often "disproportionately likely" to be Asian men.
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer commissioned Baroness Casey to carry out an audit into the nature and scale of child sexual abuse in January, following months of pressure from his political opponents, and even tech billionaire Elon Musk.

Chris Philp says police and councils “deliberately covered up” grooming gang crimes, putting “race relations” ahead of protecting vulnerable girls. The shadow home secretary also claims the prime minister only announced the national inquiry after being “dragged kicking and screaming” by Baroness Casey’s report into child sexual exploitation.
