Just read this about the grooming of young girls by the prosecutor Nazir Afzal.
IN 2008 the Home office sent a circular to all police forces in the country saying “as far as these young girls who are being exploited in towns and cities, we believe they have made an informed choice about their sexual behaviour and therefore it is not for you police officers to get involved in."
Jacqui Smith was home secretary
He also says
The term “child prostitute" was used extensively to describe them and it should be noted both that the Home Office in a circular to police in 2008 used that term and spoke of girls making an “informed choice" to engage in this behaviour.
If true then the whole racism thing was indeed bullshit and the govt simply were not bothered
Afzal goes on to say he prosecuted some cases early on and it was never about race
