What is Starmer's record on prosecuting grooming gangs?
Briefly

Elon Musk accused PM Keir Starmer of being 'deeply complicit in the mass rapes in exchange for votes', referencing his tenure at the Crown Prosecution Service.
Starmer has denied Musk's accusations, insisting that he tackled prosecutions 'head on', claiming critics are spreading lies and misinformation regarding the handling of grooming gangs.
The grooming gang scandals, particularly the Rotherham case, led to a significant inquiry where at least 1,400 children faced severe exploitation, prompting national debates on the CPS's actions.
Under Starmer's leadership, the CPS faced criticism for their decision to not prosecute in Rochdale, which was later overturned, raising questions about the handling of abuse cases.
