In reply to Anne Krysiak.

Short answer no. It was the ethnic dimension that virtually ensured the complaints of mainly white non Muslim girls/families re child grooming and sexual abuse by Pakistani males would call on hostile ears. Complainants were accused of racism, wasting police time and lying. The men who have migrated to Britain from Pakistan come from a different demographic than those who migrated to the USA so you may not have the same issues.
The crimes are tolerated/ignored by the Pakistani community to a shocking extent. Men released from prison are accepted back in to the community. The gangs comprise people who know each other and who may be related. Girls have been moved around the country to houses and cafes and taxi ranks at all hours often distressed and in view of perpetrators families. Where I live a large group of women turned up at a crown court case where men from the family were being charged with grievous bodily harm and child rape. These women yelled “Shame Shame Shame!” at female barristers outside the courthouse, insulted them and yelled that they would be raped.
There are now swathes of British society who have been compromised by failure to act, usually from fear of some sort ranging from exposure of neglect owing to dismissing complainants as racist to concerns about the Muslim block vote to blackmail and fear for their physical safety.
There is an element of disbelief about these crimes similar to the reaction people have had to the 7th October attacks in Israel. The majority of the crimes are not seen as crimes under sharia law as the victims were non muslim.
There’s really too many other things that many people want hushed up going on here to be able to deal with adequately in a more general enquiry.
