YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A former children's commissioner has been named as the chair of the national inquiry into grooming gangs.

Baroness Anne Longfield's appointment follows months of delays, in which a number of women quit the survivors panel and two candidates to chair the investigation pulled out.

She has vowed to not shy away from difficult truths during the three-year inquiry, which the home secretary says will be a moment of reckoning for the nation.
