Political correctness must no longer prevent the police from using the ethnicity of suspects to identify grooming gangs, Rishi Sunak will say on Monday.
Asian grooming gangs will no longer be allowed to “evade justice because of cultural sensitivities”, a government spokesman said ahead of the unveiling of a package of measures designed to crack down on organised networks of abusers.
The Prime Minister will order police forces to improve the recording and analysis of ethnicity data – including sharing information throughout the country – in an attempt to prevent perpetrators of abuse from falling through the net.
