After weeks of pressure, Labour has announced a new £10m fund to tackle grooming gangs and child sexual abuse.

The billionaire tech mogul has been posting on his social media platform about a decade-old child sex abuse scandal in Britain. Here’s what to know.

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has announced plans for a nationwide review of grooming gang evidence and five government-backed local inquiries. She stopped short of launching a statutory national inquiry, as called for by the Conservatives and some Labour MPs, but this marks a clear shift in the government's position.

The UK government on Thursday announced a "rapid" national review of the extent of sexual exploitation of children by grooming gangs and several new local inquiries into cases of abuse.The issue was at the centre of a political firestorm earlier this month when a war of words broke out between US tech billionaire Elon Musk and Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

The Conservatives have tabled an amendment proposing an inquiry into grooming gangs, but if the vote passes new laws protecting children will be delayed.

Musk’s lionization of Tommy Robinson is equally misguided: Julie Bindel, who has reported on the grooming gangs for years, notes that Robinson did nothing to uncover the story but did jeopardize prosecutions with his publicity-hounding.

Britain's Home Secretary announced there would be a number of new local inquiries into decade-old allegations of child grooming, weeks after Elon Musk accused British Prime Minister Keir Starmer of failings.
