The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Keir Starmer came up to address the public regarding the Grooming Gangs that has grabbed the country for years. Where it was expected from the UK’s Prime Minister to present a clear picture about the grooming jihad, Keir Starmer resorted to age -old left strategy of shifting blame and using camouflaging terminologies to make the ‘blame bullet’ not hit the real Pakistani-Muslim culprits. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, rather than catching the Pakistani Muslim perpetrators by their collars, pointed fingers against the ‘far-right’ ideologues for calling inquiry into Grooming Gangs.
Keir Starmer in his public address seemed to talk less on the Grooming Gangs subject but was more inclined in making the address political by attacking his political oppositions. He took punches upon people who came out to criticise him for manhandling the Grooming Jihad issue. He dismissed accusations from tech billionaire Elon Musk, who criticized Starmer’s handling of grooming gang cases during his tenure as Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). Addressing the claims on January 5, Starmer described Musk’s comments as “misjudged and misinformed”.
Musk on twitter had accused Starmer of failing to deliver justice to grooming gang victims, particularly during his tenure over a decade ago. However, Starmer pushed back, accusing Musk of spreading “lies and misinformation.” He asserted, “Those that are spreading lies and misinformation as far and as wide as possible are not interested in victims; they are interested in themselves.”
He further argued that the focus on grooming gangs led by British Pakistani men has been amplified by far-right elements. “Jumping on a bandwagon of the far right does no justice to the victims,” Starmer stated, adding that political discourse must be rooted in “facts and truth, not lies.”
Starmer also highlighted Musk’s associations with Donald Trump and far-right activist Tommy Robinson, defending his own record of tackling crime “head-on” as DPP.
Keir Starmer expressed deep condemnation of child sexual exploitation, acknowledging decades of systemic failures. “Too many victims have been completely let down by perverse ideas about community relations or by the idea that institutions must be protected above all else. They’ve not been listened to, and they’ve not been heard,” he said. But the terminology he used to address the Grooming Gangs issue lies in the concerning bracket. Rather than being crystal clear regarding the identity of the perpetrators, Keir Starmer chose to hide away their identities and went up to point fingers at the Asian Community as a whole. He used the terminology of ‘Asian Grooming Gangs’ which the Islamo-Leftist ecosystem loves using in order to dilute the blame on the real culprits ie. Pakistani-Muslims.
The Islamo-leftist faction in the UK has made deliberate attempts to obscure the truth by manipulating terminology. The phrase “Asian Grooming Gangs” is frequently used to deflect attention from the Pakistani-Muslim perpetrators and shift blame onto Asians as a whole. This term is misleading, especially considering that Asian girls themselves have also been victims of these grooming gangs. The accurate term, “Pakistani-Muslim Grooming Gangs,” must be adopted to ensure clarity which is essentially required to combat this grave issue without diluting the focus.
At the latest, the debate upon the Grooming Gangs has got a major push with popular figures jumping into the discourse of the subject. The discussion gained momentum on social media platform X, following the Crown Prosecution Service’s (CPS) sentencing of seven Pakistani-origin Muslim men for child sex abuse offenses in Rotherham.
These crimes, part of the Rotherham grooming scandal (1997–2013), involved Muslim men luring non-Muslim girls into exploitative relationships, putting them on torture and pressuring them to convert to Islam. The recent convictions, under Operation Stovewood, have brought the scandal back into public focus. High-profile personalities such as Tesla CEO Elon Musk, author J.K. Rowling, and former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss have condemned the crimes and lashed out at the administrative failures.
Elon Musk criticized the current UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, who led the CPS during the period from 2008 to 2013 when these gangs operated unchecked and called for the release of journalist Tommy Robinson who is known for exposing grooming gang cases.
Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss echoed the same concern demanding accountability and judiciary reforms to address systemic failures.
