Easy Meat Inside Britain's Grooming Gang Scandal by Peter McLoughlin In 2009, Peter McLoughlin's understanding of the issue was challenged by individuals who claimed their children had been targeted by grooming gangs. These informants, who were unlikely to be racist themselves, prompted McLoughlin to investigate further. What he uncovered was shocking: evidence of widespread knowledge among social workers, police officers, Muslim organisations, journalists, and even some politicians about the grooming gangs, yet a deliberate failure to act on this information. McLoughlin spent years documenting this scandal, which he believes has been ongoing for over 20 years. His research reveals that the true nature of the grooming phenomenon was known about long before the issue gained widespread attention. In 2016, Parliament conducted a low-key investigation, which concluded that the problem was largely confined to one town. However, official reports have since admitted to a much larger scale of abuse, with over 1,400 victims in that town alone. McLoughlin argues that the authorities will continue to cover up this scandal, with new victims emerging every year across the country. This book sheds light on the criminal indicators that have been present in scores of towns across Britain, highlighting the need for a more thorough and honest investigation into this issue.
