Pakistani Grooming Gangs in UK: 250,000 White Girls Exploited; Musk Slams Starmer, Demand Action

In a shocking revelation, it is reported that over 250,000 white girls in the UK have been systematically exploited by grooming gangs, with a significant number of the perpetrators of Pakistani heritage. The extensive abuse has raised alarms over years of inaction by authorities. Elon Musk has criticized the UK government, particularly Labour leader Keir Starmer, for their handling of the issue during his tenure as Head of the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). Musk condemned the government's failure to address the grooming gangs scandal and demanded accountability, calling for those responsible to face justice. He also called out safeguarding minister Jess Phillips for allegedly covering up grooming cases, pushing for her to be jailed. The ongoing scandal has brought attention to the systematic failure of authorities to act, with critics accusing political correctness of preventing proper action and prosecution. This issue has sparked public outcry, with many calling for an urgent inquiry and a reassessment of policies surrounding the protection of children and the handling of grooming gang crimes. #PakistaniGroomingGangs #UKGroomingScandal #250000Victims #MuskSlamsStarmer #RapeGangs #UKJustice #ProtectChildren #EndChildExploitation #GroomingGangAccountability #PoliticalCorrectness #JessPhillips #ChildProtection #UKGovernmentFail #StopGroomingGangs #ElonMuskCriticism #JusticeForVictims ~PR.152~ED.194~HT.334~
