Starmer Condemns 'Lies and Misinformation' Over Child Sexual Abuse

Keir Starmer, the leader of the Labour Party, has firmly condemned the spread of "lies and misinformation" regarding child sexual exploitation. His comments come in response to Elon Musk's recent remarks on the social media platform X, where Musk accused Starmer of failing to prosecute grooming gangs during his tenure as director of public prosecutions and called Labour MP Jess Phillips a "rape genocide apologist." Musk also suggested Phillips should be jailed.  

 

The controversy centers on the government's decision not to initiate a public inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Oldham, a decision defended by Phillips. In response to criticism, Starmer emphasized his commitment to addressing child sexual abuse, stating: "Child sexual exploitation is utterly sickening. For many years, too many victims have been completely let down."  

 

Starmer defended his record, asserting that he had tackled the issue "head on" during his time as director of public prosecutions. "I changed the system because I could see some of the things that were going wrong," he explained. Reflecting on the gravity of the issue, he acknowledged, "The victims here suffered terrible abuse, and then they weren't listened to."  

 

Speaking on the broader discourse around the topic, Starmer took aim at those perpetuating falsehoods. "Those who are spreading lies and misinformation as far and as wide as possible are not interested in victims; they're interested in themselves," he said, highlighting the harm such narratives cause to survivors seeking justice.  

 

Phillips, who has been a vocal advocate for addressing sexual abuse, received Starmer's staunch support amidst the attacks. He stated that Phillips has done "1,000 times more than they've even dreamt about when it comes to protecting victims of sexual abuse."  

 

The discussion also touched on existing reviews and inquiries into grooming gangs. Starmer pointed out that there have already been numerous localized investigations and called for the implementation of actionable recommendations. "Now is the time for action on inquiry recommendations," he urged.  

 

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak echoed this sentiment, agreeing that "no stone should be left unturned" in addressing the failures of the past. However, he questioned the effectiveness of previous governments in enacting meaningful change. Referring to the Jay Report, an independent inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Rotherham, Sunak asked: "Why didn’t the last government implement the Jay requirements?"  

 

The tension between calls for further inquiries and the urgency for action highlights the ongoing complexities in addressing systemic failures surrounding child sexual exploitation. Both Starmer and Sunak stressed the importance of tangible measures to support victims and ensure accountability.  

 

As the discourse unfolds, the focus remains on safeguarding victims and preventing future abuse while countering the spread of harmful misinformation that distracts from these critical objectives.

What better way for Starmer to adress misinformation than in the same speech to do some misinformation of his own. Typical leftie!

 

“They’re supporting a man who went to prison for nearly collapsing a grooming case,” Starmer said of Robinson’s supporters. He said this showed that “they’re not interested in victims, they’re interested in themselves.”

As informed posters will be aware, Starmer was very intentionally misleading. Tommy is not currently in prison for reporting outside a grooming court case that was a long time in the past. This time he is banged up for telling(what is now regarded as truths after he brought the receipts on Silenced) what happened to a Syrian refugee who became part of a false narrative by team left to attack British people. 

 

 

“They’re supporting a man who went to prison for nearly collapsing a grooming case,”.....They are.

 

Starmer didn't say "currently" or did he and I miss it.

Is he referring to the Tory government here?......Johnson's?

Except in areas where Labour are dependent on the Muslim vote, including her own constituency where she hangs in there with a 700 majority.

 

It's kind of Orwellian that she has this Protector title but is actually The Minister For Enablement.

I like that title it seems proper!

” The Minister For Enablement“.

Looking the other way and appeasing 

the cultural Marxist movements current historical scandal needs to be  researched, investigated and debated.

I note that someone was already arrested in advance of Stalin Starmers speech to cower people and hopefully frighten them to prevent them posting on social media (if even that vile person Phillips was threatened with violence that is wrong, but let's face it, pretty good timing).

 

Welcome to Starmers Britain.

There is no crime in law called telling the truth. 

Respectfully, these days there, for all intents and purposes is, even if not in the letter of the law. Try telling the truth about the Lefts favourite voter group. They are even going to pass a law to formalise it.

That's just concerning itself with definitiions of Islamophobia. To pass restrictions on Islamophobia and pass them into law it would need to debated in Parliament, amended and voted on.

Starmer and others seem to be giving indications that is what is intended.
