Sir Keir Starmer has been told to "resign" over his handling of the grooming gangs scandal, with his U-turn on a national inquiry branded a "betrayal" by a former Conservative MP.Speaking to GB News, ex-Tory representative Anna Firth told hosts Ben Leo and Ellie Costello that Starmer ordering a review by Baroness Casey was "disgraceful".FULL STORY HERE.
00:00Anna, let's start on the grooming gang scandal, shall we, and the Casey report.
00:04Yeah, I mean, this is a report which says definitively there should be a national inquiry, which will probably not be news or anything new to your viewers.
00:16No.
00:16Because this channel is to be commended for saying consistently for months that we should have a national inquiry.
00:23And the fact that Keir Starmer had to commission yet another report that we've all paid for, through our tax money, to tell us things that we already knew, I think is absolutely disgraceful.
00:35He should have ordered this report six months ago.
00:39This is yet another monumental U-turn.
00:42It's a complete betrayal, in my opinion, of the victims who deserved this to happen earlier.
00:48And the fact that he banded people who were campaigning for this, people on a far right bandwagon, is disgusting, because that is exactly the attitude of pushing things, you know, refusing to actually look at all the details, covering things up, which has caused this problem in the first place.
