ROTHERHAM MP Sarah Champion praised the courage of those who came forward to secure Monday’s convictions and called for a national support system for survivors of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
Ms Champion called for the introduction of a statutory Victim’s Offer which would provide therapeutic support and advocacy to those who needed it.
She said: “We owe a debt of gratitude to the victims, survivors and witnesses who had the courage to come forward and help secure these convictions.
“I also want to express my thanks to the National Crime Agency who are unwavering in pursuit of justice for victims of child sexual exploitation in Rotherham.”

Peter McLoughlin spent years believing the Leftist narrative, namely it was ‘a racist myth’ that organised Muslim groups in Britain and the Netherlands (‘grooming gangs’) were luring white schoolgirls into a life of prostitution. But in 2009 he first encountered people who said their children had been groomed like this. These informants had non-white people in their immediate and extended family, and were thus unlikely to be racists. So McLoughlin dug deeper and what he found shocked him: there were mounds of evidence that social workers, police officers, Muslim organisations, journalists and even some Members of Parliament must have known about these grooming gangs for decades, and they had turned a blind-eye to these crimes. He also came across references to incidents where any proof had since vanished. McLoughlin spent several years uncovering everything he could and documenting this scandal before the evidence disappeared. He demonstrates that the true nature of this grooming phenomenon was known about more than 20 years ago. While he was writing this book, Parliament was forced by rising anger in Britain to conduct its own low-key investigation. The eventual report concluded the grooming problem was basically in one town: Rotherham. Official reports finally admitted there were more than 1400 victims in this otherwise unremarkable town. McLoughlin argues the authorities will continue their cover-up of this scandal, with many thousands of new victims
