"... there is another scandal hidden in plain sight ...
How can we claim to care about prevention when we do not do enough to support those already affected?"

Colleague Daniel Taggart from Uni of Essex and I just brought this out on the #Caseyreport: theconversation.com/what-the-new... many thanks to @theconversation.com for the opportunity
Britain let predators abuse thousands of girls—because they were poor, vulnerable, and "trouble." Race was part of it. But class, misogyny, and institutional cowardice were just as deadly. My column. #Rotherham #CaseyReport

Considering the police force is chronically institutionally racist it’s hard to believe the police did not investigate child sexual abuse due to ‘fears’ of racism. #Caseyreport
Man people are misunderstanding the grooming report.
The “disproportionate mention of Asians” indicates that the only time the police gathered ethnicity data was when men they defined as Asian were involved.
The report is damning, for the way the cases were investigated originally.

I'm old enough to remember Maria Colwell, murdered 53 years ago, and the public enquiry was going to deal with child abuse. 2025 and yet another child abuse enquiry says we need to deal with child abuse. What the hell? #StopChildAbuse #GroomingGangs #survivors #ChildrensRights #CaseyReport

Who else sees this being coopted by greedy, clout chasing, joyfully divisive hyenas?
And the victims not getting the accountability, change, or justice they deserve? 🤦🏿♀️

Neither Louise Casey's report nor any inquiry will satisfy people who have already made up their mind that the cause of "Pakistani rape gangs" is Pakistanis. #CaseyReport #GroomingGangs
