Theatre of Shame: From Community Relations to Self-Preservation
There's a difference between political weakness and calculated decision-making. One is a failure of courage. The other is a choice.
Trevor Phillips recently called the government's inaction on grooming gangs "utterly shameful" and politically motivated, suggesting they're scared of offending Pakistani Muslim communities in Labour seats.
He's right - but he doesn't go nearly far enough.
This Isn't Just Political Cowardice. It's Systemic Complicity.
For years, evidence has mounted showing the Labour Party actively concealed industrial-scale gang rape of working-class White girls by Pakistani men. The official narrative was to first claim "bare faced lies" and "far-right conspiracy theories". Leaked emails admit what took place but claim this was done to "maintain community relations." The operational reality suggests something far more calculated: maintaining a reliable voting bloc.
That's not weakness. That's policy.
They knew exactly what they were doing. They made a deliberate trade: sacrifice the daughters of the White Working Class to preserve the illusion of multicultural harmony.
This wasn't a blind spot. It was the cost of their social contract.
The Evolution of Silence
The cover-up hasn't ended. It has evolved.
Today, the silence serves a dual purpose: it's no longer just about votes or social cohesion. It's about protecting the very politicians, council leaders, and senior officials who were complicit. The people who signed off, looked away, and helped bury the truth.
Politicians like Jim McMahon, Angela Rayner, Debbie Abrahams, and Andy Burnham were all implicated in the Oldham cover-up. And they're not alone.
Why a Real Inquiry Will Never Happen Under Labour
A full national inquiry - one with genuine investigative power - wouldn't just shame those involved in the cover up. It would:
- Expose criminal negligence
- Send people to prison
- Potentially bring down a government
That's why any meaningful public inquiry under Keir Starmer's leadership remains unlikely. Not because they fear offending communities, but because they're terrified of being held accountable.
Beyond Shame to Accountability
Trevor Phillips speaks of shame.
But shame comes after guilt. And guilt assumes they didn't know.
They knew. They know.
Until we're ready to confront this reality head-on, "shame" is just political theatre. Empty words that allow the betrayal to continue.
The most vulnerable in our society deserve more than performative outrage. They deserve justice, accountability, and a system that values their safety above political calculation.
What happened wasn't just a failure. It was a choice - one made repeatedly by people who now hold positions of power. And until we acknowledge this fundamental truth, nothing will change.

For those new to me, I'm Raja Miah MBE. I spent six years leading a small team that exposed how Labour politicians protected Pakistani Rape Gangs and exchanged working class White girls for votes.
My work continues despite powerful forces including the media, politicians, police and public officials all conspiring to desperately stop me and bury the truth.
Politicians and police have all repeatedly tried and failed to have me imprisoned. My crime? Refusing to look the other way to the gang rape of children.
