Social Media Scrutiny Reignites Anger Over UK’s History of ‘Grooming’ Child Rape Gangs; UK Grooming Gang Scandal Reignited, Elon Musk, British MPs Raise Subject

Social Media Scrutiny Reignites Anger Over UK’s History of ‘Grooming’ Child Rape Gangs:

A days-long resurgence of interest in so-called “grooming gangs” — a polite newspeak for racist child rape gangs — in the UK has seen horror and outrage reignited and X-platform owner Elon Musk weigh in, amplifying the already surging discussion.

UK social media has been dominated over New Year’s by attention to the decades-long scandal, but really only made public in the past ten years, of gangs of predominantly but not entirely Pakistani men sexually abusing young English children. In the parlance of the UK media, these gangs are called ‘grooming gangs‘ as a polite shorthand, because the girls are ‘groomed’ with bribes including sweets, alcohol, and drugs before they are drawn into patterns of coercion and sexual abuse, and because it circumvents printing the graphic detail of cases in headlines.

Over half a century such gangs have worked in dozens of UK towns, have abused thousands of victims, and have involved acts of the most extreme depravity. It is descriptions of these abuses of children, as found in Judge’s sentencing remarks — and therefore a matter of legal fact, not allegation or whipped-up moral panic — that have driven much of the outrage in recent days.

One such viral post showing a Judge sentencing Mohammed Karrar of the Oxford grooming gang describes a “very young” girl, who had been raped while younger than the age of 13, and how she had been anally gang raped, and punished for trying to resist by being raped with a baseball bat. This just illustrates two lines from one judgement for one grooming gang, there are hundreds if not thousands of such instances that many will be encountering now for the first time.

In other instances journalists who have dedicated years to trying to expose the truths are suddenly finding new prominence as their work gets fresh attention. Independent filmmaker-turned GB News Journalist Charlie Peters has stated beyond the abusers themselves, an important target for new scrutiny as 2025 dawns are the police officers and local government functionaries who are said to have covered up the abuse for years, allegedly in a bid to keep a lid on ‘community relations’. —>READ MORE HERE

UK grooming gang scandal reignited, Elon Musk, British MPs raise subject;

Over the past 24 hours, social media platform X witnessed an intensed debate on the alleged grooming gangs scandal in the UK, with British MPs and social celebs like Tesla CEO Elon Musk, British author JK Rowling sharing their views on the issue.

Musk criticised the UK’s handling of such crimes, directly calling out former CPS head and current Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

In a post on X, Musk wrote, “In the UK, serious crimes such as rape require the Crown Prosecution Service’s approval for the police to charge suspects. Who was the head of the CPS when rape gangs were allowed to exploit young girls without facing justice? Keir Starmer, 2008 -2013.”

In another post, he wrote, “Free Tommy Robinson!”

Robinson is a British journalist who had released a documentary on the alleged grooming gangs and alleged rapes of young women. Robinson who is in jail was represented by his team on X that once again raised the subject of alleged rapes in the UK.

“Nicole’s story. Nicole was raped and pimped at the age of 11 by members of a grooming gang in Telford, one of many, many cases in that area. A man is languishing in solitary confinement in a high security prison because he dared to speak out and tell the truth about this scourge – the industrialised rape, pimping, and molestation of little girls by depraved adult men. That man is Tommy Robinson, ” a post on X from Robinson’s handle said.

Meanwhile, author JK Rowling also condemned the crimes and questioned potential police corruption, describing the revelations as “almost beyond belief,” citing an article of Telegraph by journalist Sam Ashworth-Hayes.

Rowling wrote on X, “The details emerging about what the rape gangs (why call them ‘grooming’ gangs? It’s like calling those who stab people to death ‘knife owners’) did to girls in Rotherham are downright horrific. The allegations of possible police corruption in the case are almost beyond belief.” —>READ MORE HERE
