UK backs local inquiries into child sexual abuse gangs after Musk stoked controversy

SeattlePI.com Thursday, 16 January 2025 ()
The British government says it will support a series of local inquiries into organized child sexual abuse in the wake of a furor largely stoked by the world’s richest man Elon Musk. In a statement to lawmakers on Thursday, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said the government has also authorized what she called a “rapid audit” of the “current scale and nature of gang-based exploitation across the country” and make recommendations on this. The issue of so-called “grooming gangs,” also called “rape gangs” by some, has risen up the political agenda in the U.K. after Musk recently took to his X platform highlighting the problem and condemning British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
