Keir Starmer was last night accused of ‘smear tactics’ after claiming those wanting an inquiry into the grooming gangs scandal were jumping on a ‘far-Right bandwagon’.
The Prime Minister triggered a furious backlash after saying Tory demands for an inquiry into the rape of thousands of white girls by gangs of predominantly Pakistani-origin men were ‘amplifying what the far-Right are saying’.
Sir Keir also angrily defended his record as Director of Public Prosecutions after Tesla tycoon Elon Musk suggested he was ‘complicit’ in the failure to tackle the abuse.
And he claimed Kemi Badenoch’s interventions on the issue showed she was ‘desperate for attention’.
The Tory leader hit back, accusing the PM of ‘applying Labour smear tactics from 20 years ago’.
She added: ‘That such a huge scandal could occur should prompt soul-searching not ranting that those of us who care about it are “the far-Right”.’
Mrs Badenoch revealed she will table a Commons amendment this week designed to force a vote on the need for an inquiry.
Former police detective Maggie Oliver, who helped blow the whistle on the scandal in Rochdale, said she was ‘incandescent with rage’ at the PM’s comments.
She told GB News: ‘I am no far-Right activist. I am a woman who gave 16 years of my life to the police and protecting children was No 1 priority in my life.
‘All the victims that I know and that we support have had their lives destroyed. To write them off as far-Right extremists is insulting in the extreme.’
Former home secretary James Cleverly warned that the PM’s comments risked inflaming public anger over the issue.
‘Accusing those who disagree with him, or who seek legitimate answers about repeated failures of child protection, as “far-Right” is deeply insulting and counterproductive. He is the best recruiting sergeant for extremism,’ Mr Cleverly said.
The row came as:
- Home Secretary Yvette Cooper said the law would be changed to make it mandatory for social workers, teachers, police and others working with children to report suspected sexual abuse.
- Mr Musk stepped up his criticism of Sir Keir, describing his comments as ‘utterly despicable’ and suggesting he should be jailed.
- Ms Cooper said grooming would be designated an ‘aggravating factor’ in child sex abuse cases.
- A 39-year-old man was charged with sending malicious communications to safeguarding minister Jess Phillips, who has faced fierce criticism from Mr Musk in recent days for refusing a public inquiry
- European leaders criticised Mr Musk, including French president Emmanuel Macron who hit out at his interference in the continent’s democratic processes
At a press conference in Epsom, the issue overshadowed Sir Keir’s announcement of plans to cut health waiting lists, which were meant to be the centrepiece of the latest attempt to relaunch his premiership.
Dismissing calls for a fresh inquiry into the grooming gangs, he said: ‘What I won’t tolerate is politicians jumping on the bandwagon simply to get attention when those politicians sat in government for 14 long years, tweeting, talking, but not doing anything about it – now so desperate for attention that they’re amplifying what the far-Right is saying.’
Downing Street insisted the PM’s comments were focused on the Conservatives and said he did not believe the campaigners and victims pushing for an inquiry are necessarily ‘far-Right’.
But Tory justice spokesman Robert Jenrick said his words were an insult to millions with legitimate concerns about the handling of the scandal.
Mr Jenrick said people were ‘rightly furious about the most appalling abuse of incredibly vulnerable little girls and the subsequent cover-up’.
He added: ‘In seeking to smear individuals demanding an inquiry – which is supported by many victims – as “far-Right”, Starmer displays the same attitude that led to this scandal continuing for so long.’

Bulldozers are being used to move parked cars to create path for emergency vehicles
A bulldozer was seen moving a line of cars that clogged the roadways
All across the UK millions of migrants have been imported and many new towns have sprung up

Parked cars have become a problem, and parking clogs up the roads
Bulldozers are now required to move a line of cars in order to create a path for rescue vehicles.
The scheme first tried out in london will soon be used in other UK cities
would it not be easier to stop dumping migrants here in the UK ?
More than 200 deaths and injuries under investigation at NHS hospital trust
Story by Tom McArdle • 19h Police are investigating more than 200 allegations of preventable deaths and harm at an NHS trust. Treatment at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Trust between 2015 and 2021 is being examined by Sussex Police. In 2023, detectives began by looking at 105 cases but this number has more than doubled, BBC News reported. The number of cases under investigation has increased as more families of patients have come forward to allege poor treatment. Police first became involved after two whistleblowers raised allegations of medical negligence in the neurosurgery and general surgery departments of the trust – including concerns about at least 40 deaths.The investigation is at an early stage, as officers are now sending cases – the majority of which involve the neurosurgery department – to medical experts for their view on the care patients received.This process is expected to finish by early this year. Although there are currently no suspects at this stage, police are said to be considering charges of gross negligence manslaughter and corporate manslaughter in the most serious cases. ‘Long-standing challenges remain’ The case of Lewis Chilcott, 23, is one of those being investigated by police. He died at the trust’s Royal Sussex County Hospital in Brighton in July 2021 after an alleged error in a tracheostomy led to infection and a fatal arterial haemorrhage. A review by the Royal College of Surgeons found that it was likely that the low position of the inserted tube caused the fatal damage. One solution would be to find a patsy like Lucy Letby

Attn Elon Musk:
I can – at least according to my “inside sources” – highly recommend a “stint” in Walton Prison, Liverpool as a place where Kweer could have his porcince pesonage “softened up”… prior to having his fat a$$ dumped in the Mersey..
