    A man has been charged following reports of threats towards Labour safeguarding minister Jess Phillips, Sky News understands.

    Jack Bennett, 39, has been charged with three counts of malicious communications, Devon and Cornwall Police said.

    The messages were sent between April 2024 and January 2025 involving three victims, including the Birmingham Yardley MP.

    It is understood the accused, from Seaton, east Devon, was charged over the weekend.

    Also just to push back on the ''sex pest'' label, a number of the court accounts and from victims describe a whole level of depravity. Even ''grooming gangs'' doesn't quite cover it (although grooming is part of the process).

    I would also like to point out the historical inconsistency in the values being defended – Holden fails to mention that cousin marriage was once a common practice among the British aristocracy. I feel that grouping the whole Pakistani community as being subject to a “clan mentality” demeans them and highlights Holden’s intolerance.


    https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/jan/02/mps-call-to-ban-cousin-marriage-is-prejudiced

    If the British aristocracy did it, what's the big deal? I dunno, maybe repeat cousin marriages (and the xenophobia that implies) within a sizable and growing minority population isn't a good look within a border society that is trying to become more egalitarian?

    The non stop barrage towards Britain by Elon for a week has been something else. So much for the ''special relationship'' lol

    Just such a shame that it's taking someone like him with a global platform to embarrass Britain (with possible economic pressure) that some of the bien pensants amongst us have had to be forced into a more robust discussion. And yes Elon is bad news for those who need that to be heard.

    anyway, a ghetto is a ghetto - it is not improved by changing its ingredients. the solution is to disperse migrants widely and not turn every medium sized town into a mini london shit hole. yet this labour govt will still play the patriotism card, shake its fist at small boats and all the while facilitate unlimited immigration - just like the tories did before them

    There seems to be this clear misunderstanding/false narrative, however you see it, that somehow Pakistanis or/and Muslims are silent.
    Although this is categorically untrue and there is much evidence to prove this, for the record:

    As a British/Pakistani/MUSLIM, I condemn the acts of these Pakistani men, rape gangs. And Labour's voting against a national inquiry into these crimes is unacceptable. Survivors must receive justice.

    Elon vs Starmer

    Quote
    “The truth is a concept that Elon Musk clearly has very little interest in,” said Norfolk, emphasising that the grooming was only exposed through his years of painstaking reporting in The Times, during which he had the full support of its editors.

    Norfolk also defended Sir Keir Starmer after Musk accused the prime minster of being “complicit in the rape of Britain”.

    Starmer was director of public prosecutions when Norfolk revealed the grooming and sexual abuse of vulnerable girls by organised groups of men in towns and cities across the north, and the reluctance of child protection authorities to take action in towns including Rotherham, Rochdale and Telford.

    Starmer met Norfolk and they discussed how official guidelines were hampering prosecutions for a string of reasons, including a lack of coherent accounts from victims because they had been plied with drugs and alcohol.

    “I want to put the record straight on this,” Norfolk said. “It was Starmer who changed the rules to make more prosecutions possible. That happened and there was a huge increase in convictions.”

    Also I've started re-reading the 'muslim grooming gangs'' thread I made years ago where you said these groomers of Asian/Pakistani descent were just a product of our class system. Do you still agree with that crumble? I think disagreed with you vehemently in the emotional rage I was feeling when I started hearing about the convictions and failure of the authorities!

    She said the perpetrators came from “a very poor background, a sort of peasant background, very, very rural, almost cut off from even the home-origin countries that they might have been in”.

    Part of the problem in this debate is that data on group-based child sexual exploitation (CSE) is shockingly poor, especially with respect to ethnicity. A report last November from Hydrant, a national policing programme on CSE, noted that, in 2023, ethnicity was recorded in only a third of group-based CSE cases in England and Wales. Of these, 83% were white and 7% Asian, including 2.7% of Pakistani heritage. The figures for the first nine months of 2024 appear to be broadly similar. This data runs counter to the current narrative, though it is difficult to assess its reliability given that in most cases ethnicity is not recorded. It’s another reason to set up a national inquiry.

    Mr Afzal, who is now Chancellor at the University of Manchester, said a perceived culture of denial at many town halls needs to be tackled. Speaking to the Northern Agenda podcast, he said: "I do have a sense of denial around the country. I've approached some towns for example, and said 'why aren't you carrying out a look into what's going on or had gone on in your areas?' and they said, 'we've moved on'.

    "won't someone think of the children??"

    it's about appealing to racist and stupid voters who might consider reform instead of labour/conservatives. this current hysteria has been re-manufactured on twitter (and then amplified by uk media) so could be a dead issue by the next election.

    in the meantime, reducing criminality amongst the underclasses is not as important as singling out brown perpetrators from a sea of their white compatriots, ie they don't give a shit about victims, it's just politics.

    Afzal agreed, saying: “Don’t walk by. My 15-year-old boy was playing snooker a few months back and noticed these young girls and these older men. Maybe he is more aware than he ought to be, but he came home and told dad, and dad told the police and the police acted on that information. This is what we should be doing – routinely, daily, all the time, everywhere. When you are suspicious, you act on that suspicion.”

    He added: “People say to me: do you want us to grass every one up? Do you want whistleblowers? No! I want good neighbours. It could be your child, your friend’s child next. How are you going to make sure you share your suspicions and stand up for the society you are a part of.”
