Government: 'Grooming gangs audit not because of Elon Musk pressure'
- Lisa Nandy pushes back against claims that billionaire tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has pushed the Government into launching a new audit into grooming gangs. The Culture Secretary says 'we govern for the real world' and not social media.
The article from MSN discusses the UK government's decision to conduct an audit on grooming gangs, clarifying that this initiative was not influenced by Elon Musk's comments on the matter. Instead, the audit was spurred by the need to address the systemic failures in handling child sexual exploitation cases, as highlighted by the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA). The government aims to ensure that law enforcement and other agencies are adequately equipped to tackle these crimes, focusing on improving data collection, understanding the scale of the problem, and ensuring that ethnicity does not overshadow the primary focus on child protection. The audit seeks to enhance the response to grooming gangs, ensuring justice for victims and prevention of future abuses, independent of external pressures.
