Rochdale Rape Scandal: Outrage Over Powell's Comments!

Lucy Powell faced backlash for dismissive comments on grooming gangs, sparking anger among victims and campaigners like @MaggieOliverUK. Oliver criticized Powell for lacking "humanity" and accused her of revealing politicians' true indifference. Powell later apologized, claiming she addressed political tactics, not the issue itself. Oliver also alleged Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's complicity in covering up abuse during his time as Director of Public Prosecutions. She launched the #TheyKnew campaign seeking justice against those involved in cover-ups.
