The Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police and the head of Rochdale Council will be among those giving evidence to MPs investigating what could have been done to prevent the grooming of vulnerable children in Rochdale.  The Home Affairs Select Committee will hear evidence later today to learn lessons from the Rochdale case.

It will hear first from Jim Taylor, the Chief Executive of Rochdale Council. Then Chief Constable Peter Fahy and Detective Chief Superintendent Mary Doyle from Greater Manchester Police will give evidence. The Committee will also hear from Peter Davies from the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre (CEOP) and the Deputy Children's Commissioner Sue Berelowitz.

The Chairman of the Committee, the Rt Hon Keith Vaz MP, said: "Recent cases of child exploitation have shown an ugly and brutal side to our society. It is vital that we know the truth about why these abuses took place and that we have robust measures to guard against them. We look forward to questioning local officials from Rochdale Council and the Chief Constable for Greater Manchester Police about what could have been done to prevent the grooming of vulnerable children in Rochdale. We will also be asking those involved in child protection about their investigations into these atrocities. We must ensure the lessons learned in the most recent cases are not lost." 

The Rochdale case sparked protests from far right groups but police investigating the gang's crimes denied there was a "racial or cultural" issue. As Keith Vaz also denies this I am not optimistic that this inquiry will be any use.

At the end of the trial a spokeswoman for CEOP said child sexual exploitation spanned "all cultures and ethnicities".
But she added: "These cases do highlight that Asian males have been involved in an organised manner in exploiting young women. Some of these cases involved offenders from different backgrounds as well, although CEOP are investigating why there may be a majority of Asians in these particular kinds of offence."

Not asians - Muslims. And the reason is clear if you look at the career of Mohammed who they emulate.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission is currently investigating a series of mistakes by Greater Manchester Police and the CPS for failing to take the first victim seriously when she first reported the abuse. She carried on being targeted by the gang until December 2008 when she fell pregnant and moved away.

Technically of course it isn't a race matter - Islam is an ideology not a race, and men of the same race (or legal nationality) who are Christian, Hindu or Sikh in Pakistan do not form grooming gangs. In my experience around the courts when a non-Muslim man has paedophile tendencies he knows it is wrong, he hides it from his family, he has to go to great lengths to secretly seek out likeminded individuals often miles from his home. I believe the internet has made this a little easier for them.
When the Muslim men of these grooming gangs get hold of a little girl their immediate reaction is to invite all their mates at the minicab office round to have a pop.
