So with the news that Greater Manchester police are now investigating more than 1000 grooming gang suspects, that begs two questions. If that's one police force, just how many have been ignored? If they can suddenly investigate 1000 suspects, how long have they been sat on this evidence, and why is there not an outcry about this. Surely this is all the evidence you need that they have been covering it up? 😡

The Social Media U16 ban isn't working. The government is doubling fines. Here's some questions. How many companies have been issued with failure notices? How many fines have been issued? How many fines have been paid? No failure notices, no fines, just further investigations. So why are they doubling fines? Why all the hoopla? Could it be is just part of the plan to introduce Digital ID? What do you think is going on?

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky on Howard Lutnick: He lived right next door. If you were on that block, you saw girls coming and going all the time. And I think to myself a lot about Maria Farmer’s abuse in 1996, and then the fact that I was there in 2004. My abuse could have been stopped so many times, and so many girls could have been spared.

I asked the Home Secretary if she could tell me just how many children have been by abused by rape gangs in Bradford. The answer? She doesn’t know - because no inquiry has ever been carried out in our area. We need an inquiry. Now.

I know what it feels like to be a vulnerable girl dependent on the state to protect you. That is why I will never shut up about the grooming gangs inquiry. Girls in care were failed, ignored and abandoned. The state looked away. The public deserves the truth.

Another Epstein file has been exposed and it is truly heartbreaking to see.. It is painful to think about how many innocent young children have suffered.. This situation shows a dark reality that cannot be ignored.. I feel deep sadness and anger after seeing this.. What hurts the most is why these criminals have still not been punished... Justice should have been served long ago for those responsible.
