Health Secretary Wes Streeting has warned that rhetoric around grooming gangs risks fuelling anti-Muslim violence, similar to the New Zealand mosque massacre.
Anger has grown after Labour blocked a national inquiry into the scandal, despite support from Kemi Badenoch and Elon Musk.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer, criticised for his role as CPS head during the Oldham scandal, has refused to back an inquiry.
Streeting told The Guardian: “Victims’ voices have been side-lined, and that’s a disgrace.”
