Grooming gangs timeline: What happened, what inquiries there were and how Starmer was involved
Tuesday, 7 January 2025 The grooming gangs scandal is back in the headlines after Elon Musk attacked Sir Keir Starmer and minister Jess Phillips for failing children.
Sir Keir Starmer slammed the previous government's "empty promises" as he set out his plans for improvements to the North of England rail system. "The last government made so many promises, none of which they followed through on. I'm only making promises where we're putting the money on the table right now," Mr Starmer said.

Trump and Elon Musk have severely impacted federal workers, veterans, and social security services, says Ranking Member Mfume. With mass firings, agency shutdowns, and unchecked decisions, critical programs are suffering. Mfume’s resolution seeks transparency into these actions, including the firing of 18 inspector generals. As federal workforce morale plummets, Congress must act to protect public service and restore oversight.
