MPs vote against new national inquiry into grooming gangs

  • A Tory proposal for a national inquiry into grooming gangs was rejected by MPs, with a vote tally of 364 to 111, resulting in a majority of 253.
  • The vote was symbolic, intended to pressure the Labour party amid renewed media attention on grooming gangs following comments by Elon Musk.
  • The rejection of the amendment was criticized as 'political game playing' and would not have mandated the government to start an inquiry due to parliamentary procedures.
  • Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham expressed support for a limited inquiry to ensure accountability for those involved.
