💨 Abstract

Conservative MPs will push for a vote on a national inquiry into grooming gangs, tabling an amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. They argue that Labour's proposed local inquiries are insufficient, lacking power to summon witnesses. Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp demands a national inquiry, criticizing the cover-up involving police and local authorities due to the perpetrators' Pakistani heritage. He emphasizes the need to hold those responsible for the cover-up accountable.
