‘Putting people in prison for pointing it out!’ Grooming gangs scandal sparks fury in US as Andrew Klavan gives Starmer two-word demand

Home Secretary Yvette Cooper announced five localised inquiries into grooming gangs, following an amass of pressure on the Government to act.

The Prime Minister had previously accused those calling for a national inquiry as people "jumping on the far-right bandwagon".

Delivering his verdict on Starmer's approach to the grooming gangs scandal, Klavan told GB News: "It's not just the grooming gangs, it's the cover up.

"It's the fact that you get arrested for reporting it, that want to actually put the words grooming gang on a kind of 'no say list', that they put away people in prison for pointing out what's happening, but not for actually doing it. It's a real problem, it's a serious problem."

When asked for what message he has for the Prime Minister, Klavan simply stated: "Get out."

He expanded: "I think he's done, I think he's a placeholder. I think that they put him in there because the Tories would not do what they said they would do, and they're trying to send a message to them. I think they'll bring them back in fast."

Klavan concluded his comments by arguing that "ideology had replaced morality" in British society.

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:

• Grooming gangs scandal exposure part of a ‘right-wing revolution’, says Michael Knowles
• Councils only 'probe gang abuse after bad publicity' amid fears of becoming 'another Rotherham'
• Andrew Pierce outraged as grooming gang abuser's involvement in children's care home is exposed

"It's ideology replacing morality. It's what Solzhenitsyn said, this is what convinces people that doing the wrong thing is the right thing," he told GB News.

The commentator specifically targeted Britain's approach to immigration and multiculturalism.

"This idea of multiculturalism, that somehow mass immigration can be good for Britain, which it can't, is being protected by covering up the crimes that these people are committing," he said.

Comparing Britain's migration crisis to the United States, Klavan urged that Britain should "learn a lesson" in how the US has handled their migration levels.

Klavan concluded: "America does have a multiculturalism problem. I have a feeling we just kicked it a little bit back down the street. And I hope that's a lesson to Britain, I hope they can learn from it."

The Labour Government is backing five local inquiries into grooming gangs, including one already agreed upon in Oldham.

The "rapid audit" announced by Yvette Cooper will take three months and will be overseen by Baroness Casey, who currently leads an independent commission into adult social care.

The inquiries, however, will not have powers to compel witnesses to give evidence, despite calls from Rotherham MP Sarah Champion for such authority.
