NEW DELHI: In a bold statement, Nigel Farage, the leader of Reform UK, has issued a public challenge to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, demanding a full public inquiry into the widespread child rape gang scandals. Farage warned that if the Labour government refuses to act, his party will take matters into their own hands, pledging to independently launch an inquiry.
Farage’s declaration came in response to growing public outrage over the alleged mishandling of grooming gang cases across the UK. Speaking with conviction, he emphasized the need for transparency and justice, stating, “If the Labour government won’t hold a full public inquiry into the widespread mass rape scandal, then we at Reform UK will. Raising the money won’t be a problem.”

The issue of grooming gangs has long been a contentious topic in British politics, with critics accusing successive governments of failing to adequately address the problem. Farage’s comments highlight the urgency of the situation, as well as the perceived lack of accountability in handling these heinous crimes.
Supporters of Farage argue that a thorough inquiry is essential to restore public trust and bring justice to survivors. They believe that independent oversight would uncover systemic failures, ensuring that such atrocities are not repeated. However, critics have questioned whether a party-led initiative could achieve the level of impartiality and thoroughness required.

Farage’s challenge puts significant pressure on the Labour government to take decisive action. If Reform UK follows through on its promise, it could set a precedent for political parties to take direct action on matters of national importance.
As the debate continues, the victims and their families remain at the centre of the discussion, demanding justice and accountability. Whether through a government-led inquiry or Reform UK’s efforts, the call for action is growing louder.
