Religion, police and education leaders unite with grooming survivors to demand immediate government action
Police chiefs, head teachers, faith groups and charities are among groups urging the government to implement recommendations from the child sex abuse inquiry as the row over grooming gangs continues.
A coalition, made up of 65 major charities, community leaders and abuse survivors, says it has “significant concerns” about the government’s failure to act on proposals made by the chair of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) in 2022.
The inquiry is back in the limelight after the Tory party backed calls from tech billionaire Elon Musk to establish a new national probe into grooming gangs, voted down in parliament on Wednesday night.
