Whitewash Exposed: Labour U Turns on Promised Rape Gang Inquiries

They thought nobody would notice.

That's the only explanation for what happened yesterday in Parliament, when Jess Phillips, Labour's Minister for Safeguarding, attempted to quietly dismantle the government's promised inquiry into child sexual abuse.

• The chamber was almost empty as Parliament prepared to close for Easter.
• The statement was announced just moments before Parliament broke for recess.
• The strategy was clear: announce a complete U-turn when nobody's watching.

Gone were the five local grooming gang inquiries promised by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper just three months ago. Gone was the £5 million commitment specifically earmarked for these investigations. Gone was any pretence that this government would confront the horror of industrial-scale child abuse.

In their place? A vague "flexible approach" where money would be available for local councils to use as they wished - potentially for "more bespoke work" or "locally led audits."

In other words: No real investigation. No real accountability. No justice. It would now be up to local councils that had failed to protect their children from being gang raped to volunteer and bid for money to 'investigate' themselves.

The Ambush

But Labour's plan to bury this betrayal failed spectacularly. Opposition MPs showed up - and they came prepared.

Conservative Katie Lam delivered what can only be described as a public execution. Standing in the chamber, she demanded what victims have been begging for: meaningful accountability for the industrial-scale abuse of children across Britain.

Her words hung in the air like a verdict. Phillips, meanwhile, looked like she'd rather be anywhere else, reciting a lifeless statement about "progress" that carefully avoided mentioning that Tom Crowther, the barrister who was supposed to chair these inquiries, had been left completely in the dark.

Just one week earlier, Crowther told the Home Affairs Committee he had been "confused about his role" and had even asked "whether he was needed" amid a complete lack of communication from the Home Office.

The Cover-Up Unravels

This wasn't mere incompetence. This was deliberate.

In January, after immense public pressure, including from billionaire Elon Musk, the government promised specific action: five local inquiries modelled after the judge-led investigation in Telford.

Now, they've abandoned that commitment with a bureaucratic sleight of hand, replacing "inquiries" with "victim panels" and "audits of historical cases."

A Home Office spokesman's claim that it was "patently false" they were watering down plans rings hollow against the evidence of their own announcements.

The Reckoning Begins

What we witnessed yesterday, Phillips cornered, exposed, and scrambling, was just the latest salvo in a war that has finally reached parliament.

A storm is brewing.

The Conservatives have already promised another vote. This time, they won't allow it to be buried in a pre-Easter exodus. This time, the chamber won't be empty.

But the real threat for now doesn't come from traditional political channels.

Reform UK has escalated beyond parliamentary theatre - they're now talking Judicial Reviews. This isn't political posturing. This is legal warfare.

Meanwhile, Rupert Lowe has already raised over £500,000 for his own independent inquiry. That's half a million pounds of private funding dedicated to exposing what the government refuses to acknowledge.

No committees. No parliamentary oversight. No political control. Just raw, unfiltered investigation.

The Public Awakens

Yesterday's attempted burial hasn't dampened public outrage. It has inflamed it.

Every empty chair in that chamber.
Every stumbled word from Phillips.
Every attempt to minimise this scandal.

They all feed the growing fury outside Westminster's walls.

The government miscalculated. They thought they could bury this issue with a whispered statement to an empty room. Instead, they've triggered a cascade of consequences they can no longer control:

• Conservative opposition now energised and coordinated
• Reform UK pursuing legal avenues beyond Parliament's reach
• Private funding flowing to Lowe's independent investigations
• Public anger reaching boiling point

The victims continue to wait for justice. The clock continues to tick. But the days of Parliament looking the other way are numbered.

A reckoning is coming.

For six long years, I, and many who stood with me, have refused to stay silent. We've campaigned relentlessly to expose what was done to our nation's children and the networks of political protection that enabled it. Now, the world is watching.

What's playing out in Parliament isn't just a scandal. It's a reckoning.
And let's not pretend we don't see what's happening here. This government, dependent on the Muslim bloc vote, is burying the Rape Gang scandal in broad daylight. The question that must be asked is this:

Who exactly are they protecting - and why?

WHO I AM

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.
Both 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.
