Jess Phillips has finally signed a letter asking the national inquiry into the Pakistani Rape Gang to come to Birmingham. Unfortunately, the inquiry Phillips is now welcoming cannot look at anything before 1 January 1996.
Why does this matter in Birmingham?
Because in 1990 Birmingham City Council commissioned research into the sexual exploitation of girls in its own care. It found twenty girls, by name, in the council's own files, and traced the link to taxi drivers already cautioned for pimping.
The council ordered the ethnic dimension stripped out, buried the report and destroyed the copies. To make matters worse, In December 1995, councillors voted down the enquiry into that destruction.
Phillips and her colleagues know exactly what their letter does not ask for. If they were serious, they would be demanding the inquiry reach back before 1996. They are betting you will never read my analysis.
