Since Andy Burnham is apparently lining up to be the next Labour leader, here’s a reminder:
Andy accused victims of Pakistani-Muslim grooming gangs of trying to “propagandise” the issue.
He tried to block the grooming gangs inquiry in Manchester and nationally.
He claimed that Pakistani-Muslims grooming gangs are a “thing of the past” despite clear evidence that little girls are still being victimised to this day, including in his local area.
He tried to shift the blame onto victims by refusing to acknowledge them as children —
Children who were raped, exploited and even murdered by Pakistani grooming gangs while powerful people like him turned a blind eye.
Andy Burnham belongs in prison, not in Parliament. And certainly not in 10 Downing Street.

The BBC: 17-year-old Afghan "boys" rape a 15-year-old "woman."
Read that again. The rapists get the protection of childhood while the child victim is aged-up to soften the blow. It’s not just bias; it’s psychopathic gaslighting from a media class that despises the public they’re meant to serve.
Westminster is busy playing dress-up and chasing net-zero fantasies while our streets become a free-for-all. They’ve sold out British girls to protect a failing "diversity" narrative.
The establishment isn't just out of touch—they’re actively working against us.
Enough is enough. 🇬🇧

I am saying more than this.👇
Teaching children to follow rules and show respect through dress and other means, is HOW you make them moral.
Abaraonye was not taught to show respect to others.
He didn’t lose his moral compass.
He never had one.
Mr Abaraonye is not the President of @OxfordUnion. He is the President-elect. There is a tsunami of opinion amongst the membership, former officers and the general public that he should not be permitted to take up his office. Apart from his evident lack of dress sense, which you correctly observe, he has no moral compass.

Does this make sense? We sit on decades of our own energy in the North Sea, but our leaders would rather ban new licences here and send £40 billion of our money to Norway for the exact same product. We sacrifice our own jobs and tax revenue to look good at Davos dinner parties.

Western countries are in trouble because they take stupid people and stupid ideas seriously.
In most of the world, if you say men can get pregnant or countries shouldn't have borders, they'll laugh at you.
In the West, they'll let you set policy and hire you to teach kids.

Who ever could have guessed, if you gift one of your besties a peerage and a top Government role, despite them never having been an elected MP, and having had zero political experience in Parliament, they might actually turn out to be really quite crap at politics...?!

I would like to respond to @MayorofGM Andy Burnham’s statement below following the @Channel4 documentary Groomed: A National Scandal which aired on Wednesday.
Firstly, even though you are still trying to make more ‘political capital’ out of Victoria’s death at the hands of one of her abuser’s, and the fact that you tried to demonstrate just how much you supported Victoria’s grandma and would get justice for her by a new inquest in 2020. Over 5 YEARS LATER this has STILL not happened.
Furthermore, you and your team and ACC Sarah Jackson of @gmpolice said when challenged that there was ‘wrap around care’ for grandma Joan Agoglia, now in her 80s and very frail and almost totally blind, I subsequently received a phone call asking ME for her address and phone number! If she had ‘wrap around care’, how could that happen if 5 years later you still didn’t know her address or phone number. That’s the question. I visit Joan, and she hasn’t a clue what’s happening. It seems to me you are just waiting for Joan to pass away and then this inquest will never happen. It was a total cover up the first time and I see nothing to reassure me this is any different.
Secondly, HMICFRS were brought in last year because the original review team resigned because they were being blocked from every angle from talking to victims who had not only been failed in the original enquiries in 2005 and 2011/12, but as the documentary showed are being failed yet again by Op Greenjacket. 6 YEARS they have being left dangling, and we have STILL not seen anyone charged, and survivors who were totally willing to cooperate are further traumatised and some have been ‘dropped’ yet again! As was I after one hostile meeting with the SIO. And I am a professional witness to what happened in relation to the police officers identified by Steph!! Shocking!
The original review team knew exactly which dark corners to look in as they had spent 6 YEARS analysing the HOLMES System exposing Rochdale and Augusta failures, and itmis totally scandalous that they haven’t been included in this new ‘enquiry’ which I believe will be another whitewash as was the @IICSAVSCP into ‘organised networks’, ie Grooming gangs! This isn’t the ‘Duty of Candour’ you frequently talk about Andy. It’s political manoeuvring,
I’ve seen it all over the past 13 years and political point scoring will not solve this national scandal. Criminal and private prosecutions for those in high places who deliberately turned away is the only way to bring systemic change in my opinion. So that those in office today will never again fail to protect children they KNOW are being raped because they see them as worthless, and also don’t want to rock the ‘multi cultural boat’ nor invest ‘resources’ into these cases.
Criminal, inhumane, neglectful and quite honestly WRONG!
Please support our #TheyKnew campaign and donate, however little, so we can hold those at the top legally to account. It’s the only way. And it has to be a private prosecution because the @CPSUK will never prosecute those who they’d rather protect I’m afraid. It’s the junior officers at the bottom of the chain who will be occasional scalps, and it’s not their fault!!
Action not words and empty promises is what is needed. And posts like yours here are now seen right through by the public who have seen through the propaganda and are demanding action. And it won’t go away this time I’m afraid Andy.
Acknowledging more needs to be done just isn’t enough. You are Police and Crime Commissioner and it is your DUTY to ensure it is!
Andy's statement on the @Channel4 documentary Groomed: A National Scandal, broadcast last night.
ALT Last night's documentary, 'Groomed: A National Scandal', was harrowing to watch. It laid bare the failures of the authorities at the time to protect children and brought home the full human impact of these appalling crimes through the words of the victims. These same systemic failures were exposed in 2017 by a previous documentary – The Betrayed Girls – which led me to commission a wide-ranging independent review into historic child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester. Following the first report on Manchester in 2020, GMP launched Operation Greenjacket, which led to the reopening of two of the cases featured in the documentary. Three reports have now been published, also covering Oldham and Rochdale, and new investigations have led to 89 arrests and 71 years’ worth of convictions against abusers in the region. Just yesterday, three more suspects were arrested in Oldham as part of GMP's Operation Sherwood.
ALT The review has also led to a new inquest being ordered for Victoria Agoglia, the 15-year-old whose death was the catalyst for this whole process, and who was mentioned by one of the survivors on the programme. Investigations into historic child sexual exploitation are hard to conclude, and the programme rightly highlighted the frustration of the victims. We acknowledge that more needs to be done to support them and to bring more perpetrators to justice. The final part of the review launched in 2017 will be published next month. It will give a clear opinion on whether the Greater Manchester public can have confidence in the arrangements to protect children today. I have always been open about the limitations of a local process of inquiry which cannot compel those in authority to give evidence. That is why, alongside these local processes, I believe there is a clear case for a national inquiry focused on the accountability of decision-makers.

How dare @LucyMPowell have so little respect for our children.
How dare she think that talking about rape gangs is a ‘dog whistle’.
How can we have an MP saying this sort of thing?
How are we not demanding her resignation?
This is outrageous 😳
Extraordinary exchange on Any Questions, 23 mins in. @montie: "I don't know if you saw that documentary on Channel 4 about rape gangs?" @LucyMPowell: "Oh, you want to blow that little trumpet now, do you? Let's get that dog whistle out, shall we, yeah?" bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002bj…

Heroes like the police officer who shot Chris Kaba are all that stand between us and the predators, thieves and maniacs.
But because our society has gone mad, instead of a commendation, that police officer was put on trial for murder. I said at the time it was a disgrace and so did many others.
Fortunately, a jury of ordinary Londoners found Sergeant Martyn Blake, Not Guilty. They had more sense and decency than the officials who made the decision to charge him with murder in the first place. And they did it without seeing evidence the judge ruled inadmissible: CCTV footage of Chris Kaba shooting someone from a rival gang.
But Sgt Blake is still facing persecution. Unbelievably, the IOPC are bringing a case of gross misconduct against him.
The over-interpretation of guidelines to the point where no one is able to do their job properly will harm policing and deter good people from taking up this difficult job.
We need to support police officers who do difficult things to protect the public, provided they act in accordance with the law, as a jury found Sgt Blake did.
The IOPC has got this wrong and the govt should get a grip of this issue urgently.

So much for Keir Starmer’s pledge to ‘smash the people-smuggling gangs’.
Now he’s offering landlords five-year guaranteed full rent deals at the taxpayer’s expense to house the people they’re smuggling. From ‘smash’ to ‘complicit’ in a matter of months. Remarkable.

Oh @itvnews so instead of interviewing a female athlete who gets her fair sport back you interview a mediocre male cyclist who couldn’t make it as a junior in male sport who wants to steal a place from a woman. Thank goodness the women cyclists said no! Why do u hate female athletes so much?
