Re: Starmer’s chronicles

Professor Jay's latest comments
Quote:
Victims "clearly want action" and do not need a new national inquiry into grooming gangs, the woman who led a seven-year probe into child sexual abuse has said.
Prof Alexis Jay told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that "people should get on with" implementing her recommendations and "locally people need to step up to the mark and do the things that have been recommended".
"We've had enough of inquiries, consultations and discussions - especially for the victims and survivors who've had the courage to come forward," she said.
The Conservatives and Reform UK have called for a national inquiry into grooming gangs after the subject came under the spotlight, in part due to interventions on social media from Elon Musk.
But asked if a new national inquiry would hinder the implementation of her recommendations, Prof Jay said: "It would certainly cause delays."
The Labour government has rejected calls for a new national inquiry, saying it will implement the recommendations of the Jay Review.
Prof Jay, who chaired the Independent Inquiry into Child Sex Abuse (IICSA), said the row over calls for a new inquiry was "distracting from the issues".
She said she was "very unhappy with the politicisation of child sexual exploitation" done in a "very uninformed way".
However Prof Jay added that the row may have given "some kind of impetus to move forward" after the home secretary announced a new offence to prosecute those who cover up or fail to report child sexual abuse.
