Who is going to break the news to Badenoch there has already been quite a detailed review of grooming gangs carried out by the Home Office?
It found, proportionally, the main group responsible were white, British, men. Something which was then ignored in favour of using the term to stoke division.

Brown guy with an MBA, a successful career & many years in the military commits an attack, it's portrayed by racist reporters as the looming threat of jihad.
White military guy commits an attack, and it's "poor dear, he had such a promising future, maybe he was struggling with his emotions."

Reporting on grooming gangs tends to focus on minorities, however, as Home Office's own report showed, offenders are far more likely to be white, British. This isn't an immigration issue. Playing to racist tropes means majority of perpetrators are ignored. 1/ #r4today

I think about this periodically:
In 1979, Jimmy Carter had solar panels installed at the White House.
Ronald Reagan had them removed.
We may be able to trace back the current "Do Harmful Things if it Trolls the Libs" Republicanism to Reagan removing those panels the far more forward thinking Carter had installed.

Thomas Sankara (b. 21 Dec 1949) stood up to Senghor when the latter challenged him on changing the name Upper Volta to Burkina Faso.
Sankara: We aren't French. We are African & it will be Burkina Faso!
