What is Labour’s case against a full, judge-led investigation into appalling ‘grooming gangs’ scandal and its causes?

GIVEN how keen it has always been on public inquiries, we have to wonder why the Government now rejects one into the monstrous “grooming gangs” scandal. The rape and abuse of thousands of girls by hundreds of mainly British-Asian perverts in multiple towns and cities not only destroyed those children’s lives but blights our nation.

When last in power Labour loved such probes. In opposition too they demanded one over every scandal they thought might damage the Tories. We suspect that chiefly motivated their clamour for the Covid Inquiry too. A full public inquiry into the decades-long national scourge of paedophile rape gangs, let alone the one solely covering Oldham which the Government has refused, might prove deeply uncomfortable for Labour.
It would likely blame Left-wing politicians, council officials and police chiefs and their foolish paranoia over racism while perhaps also condemning Britain’s flawed approach to multiculturalism and the dangers of a hyper-liberalism which tolerates actual evil.
Some who turned a blind eye might potentially end up in jail. The Tories are making hay with all this. But they had 14 years for just such an inquiry and didn’t go ahead either. What is Labour’s case against a full, judge-led investigation into this appalling national scandal and its causes?.
