NB Robin Tilbrook is bringing an action for a judicial review of the home secretary's decision not to hold a national enquiry.

The government was wrong to water down its proposal of local enquiries in just five towns into the scandal of the rape gangs. They attacked children in the most disgusting way. It is thought this happened in at least 50 towns and cities.
One of the issues is did senior local Councillors and Council officers help cover this up? They should not decide whether to hold an enquiry, and should not conduct it.
Katie Lam MP spoke for most people when she challenged the Minister seeking to smuggle the dilution through an almost empty House of Commons. Rupert Lowe has also done good work on this issue.
