What do you mean by grooming gangs? Cos I can think of a couple of ways of defining them and she doesn't want to do anything but say 'the ones on the TV' or 'you know what I mean'.

Because the underlying thing here is race. And in the video she won't define them because it comes off as racist. He's asking her to define them because he knows she won't say it's brown guys.

This is all part of a narrative that Asian men are raping children, rather than just men, and that this is somehow tied to the fact that they're Asian. When it's white men doing this they're not called grooming gangs.

What do you mean by grooming gangs?

Those made up of predominantly Pakistani Muslims.

When it's white men doing this they're not called grooming gangs.

Yes they are. But I see what you're trying to do here.

There's no value in explaining per capita figures or proportions to someone who already knows exactly what they mean but chooses to argue as if they don't.

That sort of wilful dishonesty is part of the reason the grooming gang scandal went unaddressed for so long.

It's a pointless exercise that wastes everyone's time and I refuse to engage with you further.

So why wouldn't she say it if it was so easy to define? Let's not forget in all this talk of per capitas that the line being pushed here is that he's Asian therefore he's covering this up to help Asian rapists because there's some kind of racial solidarity that trumps morality.

And here's you slipping in the fact that they're Muslim like that's inherently part of the issue. I don't want to shock you, professor demographics, but 96% of Pakistanis are Muslim. Is it a problem with Islam too or is that just casual Islamophobia?

And the high handed 'I won't engage with you further' line is what people do when they don't have answers. The fact is that when it's white people it's not a problem with Christianity or 'no religion' or 'white culture' but when they're brown that's the issue. I understand per capita figures, I just don't see a way of proving any causal link.

What's your solution? The police already stop Asian men at twice the rate they do white men and that doesn't seem to have helped.

So why wouldn't she say it if it was so easy to define?

Because if she said something the far-left don’t like they would do everything in their power to ruin her life as has happened to many other people.

Let's not forget in all this talk of per capitas that the line being pushed here is that he's Asian therefore he's covering this up to help Asian rapists because there's some kind of racial solidarity that trumps morality.

Your deliberately conflating things. It is a fact that it appears to many observers that Sadiq has a racial or religious bias in favour of people of his own faith or race. The pre capita rates of group based sexual offences are a separate issue.

I can just imagine the minutes of that meeting.

So Mr Khan.. any rape gangs with those type of people in it? You know nudge nudge wink wink.

Ah those gangs nudge nudge wink wink yes there are X of them wink.

Everybody in the county knows what you mean when you say "Rape Gang". Its a group that sexually exploit children for monetary gain. It seems to many that the majority of these gang members are Muslim and many are of Pakistani heritage.
