Charlie Peters: Hopeless Decades for the UK's Lost Girls
Manage episode 365448649 series 2849984
We speak about the decades-long fight of a handful of dedicated public servants to blow the cover off a scandal of epic proportions. Associated with places like Rotherham, Telford, and wider Oxfordshire, the mass rape of young girls by grooming gangs of mostly Pakistani origin has been covered up by every institution that existed to protect women and children. This seemed like the price to pay for social cohesion.
I speak with Charlie about the following and more:
How big the scale of this scandal is
The motivations of the perpetrators
The police in the UK - an anarcho-tyrannical superpower
Using new tech to intimidate victims
Administration insiders covering for perpetrators
Girls as young as 12 were judged for making “lifestyle choices”
Charlie Peters is a writer and broadcaster from London who works for GBNews.
His most recent documentary is Grooming Gangs: Britain's Shame. It is available for free and is very much worth your time.
