Carole Malone didn’t hold back during a fiery debate on GB News this week, as tensions flared over the issue of grooming gangs and Labour’s handling of past allegations. The Express columnist, who has spoken passionately on child exploitation in recent months, got into a heated row with journalist Benjamin Butterworth live on air.
As the conversation turned to Labour’s role in historic grooming gang scandals, Benjamin tried to defend the party from claims of a cover-up. “Some people use [the grooming gangs scandal] to antagonise rather than think about the real issues,” he argued, before slamming those who protested in response: “Those people that went out and rioted were a complete disgrace.”
