British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak on Monday condemned the political correctness which has averted action against “vile” culprits behind the sexual abuse of children and youthful women, as he unveiled plans for a new task force to go after similar gangs.
The new Grooming Gangs Taskforce will involve specialist officers parachuted in to help police forces with live child sexual exploitation and fixing examinations for stricter action against those who prepare children for sexual abuse.
Rishi Sunak’s advertisement came a day after his Home Secretary, Suella Braverman, said that the perpetrators of similar crimes are” groups of men, nearly all British Pakistani” but authorities have turned a” turn eyeless eye to these signs of abuse out of political correctness, out of fear, of being called racialists, out of fear, of being called prejudiced”.
“The safety of women and girls is consummate,” Rishi Sunak said in a statement ahead of a planned visit to Leeds and Manchester to launch the new task force.
“For too long, political correctness has stopped us from weeding out vile culprits who prey on children and youthful women. We’ll stop at nothing to stamp out these dangerous gangs,” he said.
Led by the police and supported by the UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA), Downing Street says the task force will correspond of officers with expansive experience in undertaking fixing gang examinations.
They will give critical support to forces countrywide to root out fixing gangs and put further perpetrators behind bars. Data judges will work alongside the task force using slice- edge data and intelligence, including police-recorded race data, to identify the types of culprits who carry out these offences.
“This will include better data on the make-up of fixing gangs, including race, to make sure suspects can not hide behind artistic perceptivity as a way to shirk justice,” Downing Street said.
