Labour MP Jim McMahon, serious questions need answering! A grooming gang victim has alleged she was trafficked into Parliament as a teenager. She says she reported what happened. So what happened next? Why were those concerns not treated as a criminal matter? Why were they misdirected instead of properly escalated? Oldham has been one of the areas at the centre of this scandal for years. McMahon came up through that system, from councillor to MP. So the question stands. What did he know, and how were these reports handled? Jess Phillips was written to by Oldham requesting action on a grooming gang inquiry and did not acknowledge the letter. Why? You also have Labour Councillor Amanda Chadderton, who downplayed the issue at council level, and later moved into a role in Westminster working with Yvette Cooper. Why? This is about accountability. Is this coincidence or does it run deeper? Victims deserve the truth!
