Firstly I don't accept anybody's religion or beliefs being part of this so it's annoying that they keep being referred to by some as 'Muslim' gangs. But the point he makes is an interesting one. The girls involved are out mostly at night in areas with taxis, take-aways etc and these jobs feature more Asian than non-white men.

OK I can accept that as a possible explanation of why there aren't any gangs of white men ending up in court on these crimes.

But it still shows that race plays a part in all this however for as long as authorities place 'community cohesiveness' as a higher priority we won't see a reduction in this any time soon.
I think part of the problem is that people see other people are a certain colour and think "Hmm, Muslim". Totally ignoring the fact that while Islam is probably the biggest religion in the East, it's certainly not the only one. That is, of course, assuming the people in question follow a religion.
