The shadow home secretary also claims the prime minister only announced the national inquiry after being “dragged kicking and screaming” by Baroness Casey’s report into child sexual exploitation.

Yvette Cooper has revealed the findings of a review into child sex abuse by grooming gangs to MPs. The home secretary said Baroness Louise Casey’s review into child sex abuse by grooming gangs found suspects were often "disproportionately likely" to be Asian men.

Solicitor Jonathan Bridge said many grooming gang victims doubt a new inquiry will help. He said previous investigations exposed failures by councils and police.
