Piers Morgan has weighed in on one of the most contentious claims to emerge from the UK's grooming gangs debate, arguing that the widely circulated figure of 250,000 victims is 'massively exaggerated' despite describing the underlying scandal as a 'horrific' national failure.
The broadcaster's comments came days after independent MP Rupert Lowe released his 219-page Rape Gang Inquiry report, which estimated that at least 250,000 young girls had been targeted by grooming gangs across Britain over several decades.
