Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer claimed it is the 'right thing to do'
Special Investigations Editor at the Daily Mail Sue Reid has warned that grooming gangs are "still operating" today, following the announcement of a national inquiry by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
Reid, who reported on grooming gangs 15 years ago, told GB News that a young woman in Rotherham "pointed out" an operating gang to her.
Speaking to Good Afternoon Britain hosts Tom Harwood and Emily Carver, Reid explained: "I know it's still going on. In fact, I've been told in the last fortnight it's still going on.
"And since I wrote about it in Rotherham, I broke it in Rotherham and went back to the same girl who was by then in her 20s, and she took me into the centre of Rotherham, at night, and pointed out the gangs milling around girls near the bus stop."
