YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIf you follow Elon Musk on Twitter, you might have a very distorted picture of one of the UK’s most controversial issues right now: child grooming gangs.
“He [Musk] is completely rewriting history,” says Nazir Afzal, the former Chief Crown Prosecutor for North West England, who prosecuted some of the most high profile cases in the country, including ones against British child sexual abusers of Pakistani heritage.
In his first on-camera interview since Musk started attacking several British officials with accusations of failing to prosecute gangs responsible for crimes against children, Afzal joins Mehdi Hasan for a Town Hall Q&A to discuss the history of this decades-old issue in the UK. Mehdi and Afzal also took dozens of questions from Zeteo’s paid subscribers.
