Who really cares about grooming gangs? Maybe not the people shouting the loudest. A quick look at how child protection is becoming ammunition in the battle between technocrats and populists. Stephen McNair reports.

Lowe’s “‘qualified advisory panel’ includes former MP Esther McVey and another ex-Reform MP, James McMurdock.” The latter has a spent assault conviction on his girlfriend. “He received a custodial sentence for "kicking" the victim "around four times". Isn’t he an odd choice for this panel?

If they want to get rid of grooming gangs, they are wasting their time protesting migrant hostels. They need to be laying siege to churches.
