They seriously said talking about rape gangs was Islamophobia?!!
He doesn't want a national enquiry because it's mostly Labour areas.
the remark of a fool
They know how many Labour councillors are involved
Damn right
Exactly. Asking corrupt councils to investigate themselves is utterly pointless.
@@hecateswolf6007 We already had the nartional inquiry, Einstein.
I absolutely hate politicians
@@njp9554 ok Mohamed
@aardvark99rex14 care to explain
So do I, But I could easily make a living as one. So, I hate I'd hate myself. Hmm...
Why is he so against it? Isn’t it considered corruption to force his MPs to vote his way? Why is nobody doing anything about it?
The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING.
because there's already been an inquiry. tories did nothing. labour are actually putting the recommendations in place. having another inquiry delays everything.
Who wants to delay action? Tories, Musk, Tommy Robinson.......
@@emm_arrSunak set up the Grooming Gangs taskforce in 2023, which led to 550 arrests.
That's not nothing.
@@emm_arr this goes beyond tribal politics or parties, this is government Vs the people
@@emm_arrAn inquiry with limited scope. There needs to an inquiry specifically exploring the gangs.
Notice how Starmer says 'Asian gangs' not Muslim gangs? He doesn't want to lose the Muslim vote. I don't recollect any Chinese or Japanese being involved in any of these gangs.
It's much bigger than the M's
Get real. The Tories DID NOTHING THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE .
@@grateberk6435
Aside from the fact it’s in overwhelmingly labour controlled areas and their own councillors and MPs did nothing
@@grateberk6435 Wake up fella
Since when has muslim been a nationality on a par with Chinese or Japanese? There are lots of Chinese muslims, for instance (chinese - nationality, muslim - chosen faith). Muslims are from a wide range of nationalities worldwide just like many other religions. I think these groomers and rapers would find it impossible to justify their disgraceful behaviour before any faith and this obviously includes Islam.
Starmer will do whatever it takes to protect his 'clients', army, and voters.
The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING.
@@emm_arrtories and labour same gang just different names
@@Mike-j7i6e that's an ignorant comment to make
What needs to investigated is the blackout by. Police, and DPP. It was horrific is how police ignored complaints and C PS have dealt and or blocked any prosecutions.
These politicians are wasting everyone's time. They have all colluded with the police and councils to cover up this issue to donkeys years.
Why doesn't the PM want a national enquiry?
Because he wants action now and the enquiry that has happened to be implemented!
@@jonathantall441 utter bollox. The review needs to be conducted on the SYSTEMIC failures. The actions can run concurrently FFS!!!
An enquiry would shine a light on the extent of the abuse, the extent of continued rape gang activity, the number of girls being abused during this very debate. Labour have no interest in such a review and shame on them
Like in the enquiry that already happened and the tories ignored?
A 7 year enquiry was published just 2 years ago, another one is unlikely to throw up anything new. Action needs to be taken on the recommendations made in that enquiry, somethin the last Govenment failed to do.
@@briannott6437that inquiry didn’t specifically look at gangs, didn’t explore the cover up or name names of those involved, and only looked at a handful of towns.
Don't forget "Cyril Smith" and the cover up that went on there, what are trying to hide here.
I can't believe an inquiry isn't already happening! The fact anyone is against this is blowing my mind!!!!! Just shows how deep it goes.....
A seven year independant review finished in 2022. This whole thing is to sow chaos and disruption.
@@DnaMoDZz what good is another enquiry if no one acts on the recommendations like before.
It already happened and the Tories did NOTHING.
Great reset! Worse to come thanks to the WEF and George soros
It has. And the Tories implemented NONE of the recommendations. Now they taking their lead from Elon Musk and acting outraged, attacking the very person who has tried the most to get things done on this issue. This would be the same Elon Musk who just financed the election campaign of Epstein's besty.
Those girls were likely "provided" to politicians - and then the politicians are trapped into doing nothing. I think that is the problem.
Ridiculous comment.
wouldnt be the first time in labour history
💯
@@T5Zplayer Never heard of Epstein?
Be serious.
He knows who they are. The police know who they are. so why are they not being arrested??
Tommy Robinson Definitely Knows.
The only question we should be asking is what is Starmer hiding. Why would anyone not want this covered.
True who is he protecting & covering up for
Vote in the bill but also add add in a National inquiry to run alongside at the same time. Why cant we have both?
Watch the Labour MPs laughing and groaning at any mention of investigating these crimes. Remember it.
That's because they already put them in prison. D'uh.
Let’s have the names of those who voted down the public enquiry.
Shame on them. We the voters are watching.
Why is he so afraid to get everything out in the open ? Who's he protecting , his " sir" status his failure with the CPS .
WHO AND WHAT ?
Everything is out in the open. It’s called the Jay Report.
People who let these girls down need bringing to justice and jailed.
Keir Starmer - why he is saying "Asian Men", be specific - say these are from which country and community.
He doesnt want to lose their votes
@@georgethepatriot2785because he cannot ever do anything but deflect and obfuscate, never a straight answer
That’s quite good for him ! He usually calls them Welsh
It’s sickening
For 15 years he and other labour member have failed to take action
These frontbenchers need to go, never ever know such a clueless and deceitful government
Like most people, I don't want an enquiry, that just fattens lawyers' wallets. I want to see the perpetrators, AND those who turned a blind eye, brought to justice!
Yea demand it then
uh oh comments still open, quick!
I just said the same thing sky covering this and opening up the comments they must have an agenda
Stama dosnt seem to grasp the situation hear
What a shower . Time the Brits made changes to who governs them . We were never asked nor voted for whats been 'done' to our nation in less than a lifetime
What? That doesn't make sense
It’s ‘Brit’s’ that are screwing Our country up. One foot on the Beach and they’re deemed ‘Brit’s’. ‘Great Britain, British Bulldog’. Distant Memories. Our Country has become Demoralised from watching Our Values getting Flushed away while ‘government after government’ are getting paid to Watch it happen.
All perpetrator are from one community . Asian is incorrect. Its deceptive.
Starmer could take action based on current evidence whilst a national enquiry goes on. So this would be in the public eyes as a win win. And deport all the known offenders. No need for long court cases. Just arrest and deport. Job done.
He can obviously influence the courts, so why can't they act at the same speed as he did in Southport?
lets be clear NONE OF THEM KH or KB did anything in their previous posts during the highlight of these atrocities they are both as bad as each other - NOBODY WINS.
And like previous posts on here he is not going to do an enquiry because that will highlight insurmountable failings on his side and for his party.
I agree 👍 💯
I have never witness such a desperate attempt to avoid an enquiry, its absolutely shocking.
The truth requires fewer words
It appears Sky News picks and chooses if comments are disabled or not. Be aware of this going forward
But Starmer only gave these men a few years in jail and all of these dangerous men are already out of jail and on our streets most likely reoffending as they didn’t show any remorse !
Many not deported because it removes their human rights to remain a threat here
Enough is enough
Vote reform uk
There is zero reason not to do both.
Crazy if he thinks he cant call an inquiry
and implementing protection at the same time
Management skills are fecking terrible 😒
The sad truth is they’re simply not up to the job.
All I hear is a nervousness in his voice with this, it should now be a criminal investigation.
FFS. We had the inquiry and a load of trials. Wake up.
@ ‘’what another media politician’’hey who wake up! , leftist media and leftist governments have destroyed this country.
That's not a total of 1400 victims. that's just for a specific time scale in that one particular place
The MPs who voted against this enquiry are supporting the groomer’s over the victims!
Starmer failed thousands of British girls! He should resign immediately!
"Starmer failed thousands of British girls!"
Not at all. Troll.
@emm_arr ok Mohamed
@@aardvark99rex14 "Starmer failed thousands of British girls!"
Not at all. Calling me "Mohamed" is a stupid response to being wrong.
Sort youself out.
IF STARMER DEMANDS HIS MPs TO VOTE AGAINST THIS ENQUIRY, THEN HE HAS A SERIOUS SKELETON TO HIDE. BRING THEM ALL TO JUSTICE, EVERYONE WHO COVERED IT UP NEEDS TO FACE JUSTICE!!
The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING.
Shame on them!!!
He doesn't want a national inquiry because he's up to his neck in it!! Self preservation at all costs ! This is not going away and he knows it. He's toast!!
He is definitely covering up....
No. The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING. FFS
Shut up about Tories. @@emm_arr
@emm_arr yes.. but not relevant as this insignifiant PM is covering up...
@@DeboutLesPartisans No. The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING. FFS
Labour councillors have been involved in this vile business for decades and he knows it.
IS HE OUT YET
Why would he be?
@@davidstrudwick6879bot
On the 6th of Jan they had a debate regarding a petition to get him out and one MP said "its not how it works in UK and no election will be held unless the PM says so or its turn for a new election"
He won an overwhelming victory just 6 months ago. It was a democratic vote that gave him 5 years to form the Govenment!
First time i've ever agreed with Kemi
Block it he’s very anxious isn’t he.
He seems to be in his element here, the least anxious I’ve seen him
sky.. this is rape gang scandal. not grooming.
Dont try to be part of rapist.
Kier was in charge of taking action and did not, why ?
Well done Kemi!
Well done for doing nothing when she was Children's Minister ? Well done for parroting Musk ?
@@hickorywind7859 these bots are a major problem, no way a real "perosn" could say "well done Kemi" unless it's just attention seeking trolling
Their sure can be swift action they sent the so-called far right through the courts
He's changing the emphasis he's dispicable
Wow!. Kemi Badenoch really took him to task.. He had nowhere to hide. She doesn’t shy away from telling the truth, even when uncomfortable to call it out.. it’s not Islamophobia.. It’s just facts!
Why did she do nothing when she was in office for 8yrs amnesia give us a break she did nothing like the rest of them
Why is he dodging this issue so much
Why the hell did the Tories do nothing after their enquiry.
Good grilling from the Tories for once
They are not "asian" gangs. It's something else they all have in common.
SO IT SEEMS THEY WORK IN PACKS
Wolf packs
Jess looks very poorly
It's not looking good for Starmer, is it.?
Why? Because he's struggling to clean up the tories mess and the elon/pootin propaganda bots are out in force making it more complicated...
@@bullseycarttoobyou want a cover up or a national public inquiry? This isn’t a time for party political point scoring.
Starmer is the most manipulative and snidey person I have ever seen in Politics.
Well done Sky, at last opening for debate. I was unsure of the calls for another Inquiry into the rape gangs but feel there is now compelling argument for one. Stammer pushing the argument the debate today that the Tories will make it worse. Why are the media failing to give objective and factual analysis
The only time I’ve acted like Starmer in this is when I’ve had something to hide. Nothing anywhere as serious as this I might add
Why is the government so sceard of reporting the truth tho welcome to western democracy 🙄
I genuinely think there is something wrong with him
Its all about him
Who cares about his brother? It is parliament, not a cocktail, party ...
He can’t care much took off on his fancy holiday did he even go to the funeral?
Certain decency will be mentained
does anyone know why no one ever "grooms" black girls?
No why
It was prevailing since 1400 years
@@dongewala but we have only been here for 2
I know some black girls that have been victims of this
Yea cause they get herd
Read between the lines , Starmer will go to any lengths to protect the Muslim vote !!!
He dosnt get it these scandals have finished him
No more enquiries! Action please!
Yeas yeas yeas
Can he answer a straight question
Yeah , Call for a National Enquiry. Interesting description as We Are a Nation. England Wales Scotland Ireland. So if it’s inclusive it will take what, 2/3 years and the rest. Giving a message to the ‘M’ Perpetrators, Carry On as Normal’.
Shame on all of them. This issue will never ever go away until it is dealt with comprehensively. It will linger like an open sore on the country for eternity. Lets hope the planned private enquiry exposes ALL those complicit from MP's to councillors to police the media and EVERYONE else.
He is like a robot
Government needs reform
A Reform tidal wave
That's what's happening since we voted dummy, educate yourself
starmer just insults people the absolute joke he is misinformation and lies come from labour
Two tier keir has to go
He really doesn't get it how can a lawyer be so dumb
The Tories were in power for 14 years and they did nothing so why now.
what did the torys do in the last 14 years in goverment how dare they stand there like its only just come to light not once did i hear them talk about this scandal during there 14 year tenure and now all of a sudden they want to champion it to get them bacck in the lime light truely disgracefull again 14 years of silence
Sunak set up the Grooming Gangs taskforce in 2023, which led to 550 arrests.
That's not nothing.
Keir Starmer must step down - most loathed PM in British history
When will this man be out. His a dictator
He doesn’t want to upset his Asian voters
He is offending asian voters
He is being more offensive to asian voters
People already know it's a cover up were in no doubt about that
Lucy Powell sat next to Starmer is MP for Withington in Manchester and is an absolute Snake like her Boss, she is absolutely hated for being so two faced it is unreal .
That enquiry could be done in 1 year.
Already had one.
Well I doubt that
Its almost like Starmer covered it up himself and he's afraid of being found out
Me think he doth protest too much. Cover up for sure life in corrupt Britain!!
Keir button got pushed at the end
I want to hear arguments on why the National Enquiry should go ahead and how to do it as thoroughly as possible.
So far from Starmer we get every excuse not to do it.
Pathetic!
The Tories had an enquiry and did NOTHING.
@@emm_arr but that doesn't exclude the enquiry proceedings going ahead this time.
And the Tories are pushing for it now.
Enquiry or he must resign, we shouldn't tolerate this, it's absolutely outrageous
Delay things till 2031 ?.WTF 😮
The PM labelling the perpetrators as Asians instead of directing it to Pakistani groups.
Another kier starmer cover-up
Well done kemi❤❤❤ 👏
She did NOTHING about this, but she's duping people who should know better.
Pass the bill
Nope. Separate child protection from the current bill as the focus is on the state caring for kids and absolving crap parents from any accountability.
The word Racist must be removed from the British lamguage and all legal documents. So such a word can not prevent future prossicutions.
Yea yea yea
2 tier justice ⚖️
Some of those on Labour front benches are looking a bit gaunt
Coverup!
The Tories had an inquiry and did NOTHING.
Good excuse for doing nothing now then? This argument is absolutely disgusting
@@neillaw Who said they were doing nothing now? They had an enquiry. It took seven years to conclude and the Tories implemented nothing, and now Labour plan to implement its recommendations. That's not nothing. The hypocrisy of the politicians who have jumped on this bandwagon as if this is a new issue, ignoring the fact that they themselves failed to implement any of the recommendations from their own inquiry, is disgusting.
True true both are bad get rid of them by your vote to reform
Does Starmer have any redeeming qualities, he is terrified any enquiry will expose his failure to bring the perpetrators to justice as director of public prosecutions
Never ever forgive Labour for this absolutely disgusted
