The key question underlying Badenoch’s call for grooming gangs probe

Overview
In her view, the mistake of the Jay inquiry (whose terms of reference were set by a government in which she was a power player) was in investigating the grooming scandal alongside 14 other cases of child sexual abuse, including but not limited to: child sexual abuse in the Anglican Church and the Roman Catholic Church, in children’s homes in Nottinghamshire, in care homes in Lambeth, to foster children sent overseas — predominantly to Australia — to foster families and institutions by the UK government, the abuse of young boys by the then MP for Rochdale, Cyril Smith, in Rochdale and the surrounding areas, and of young people in youth offender centres. [...]we do not have a clear picture of the age, gender and ethnicity of either group.
