The UK’s Labour government is stalling a public inquiry into the industrial-scale abuse of Britain’s working class girls by mainly Pakistani Muslim men. Speaking to spiked’s Georgina Mumford, former police constable Maggie Oliver – who blew the whistle on the Rochdale child-abuse ring – reveals how these crimes were covered up by the authorities, and how the victims were neglected, blamed and even criminalised. She is currently suing the UK government over its failures to protect young girls.  Buy Maggie’s book, Survivors: One Brave Detective's Battle to Expose the Rochdale Child Abuse Scandal here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Survivors-Detectives-Battle-Rochdale-Scandal/dp/1789460859  For more information about Maggie’s work, visit her charity, the Maggie Oliver Foundation: https://www.themaggieoliverfoundation.com/ Get tickets for the spiked summit – a brand-new flagship live event bringing spiked’s writers and high-profile friends together for a day of bold debate, live Q&As and on-stage exchanges in Westminster, London.

As the Iran War sends oil and gas prices spiralling, Labour’s Ed Miliband has doubled down on his Net Zero zealotry. Switching from fossil fuels to renewables, the UK energy minister claims, will drive costs down, reduce volatility and protect British consumers from external shocks. Here, David Turver – energy analyst and author of the Eigen Values Substack – demolishes Miliband’s green-energy delusions. Labour’s crusade against fossil fuels, Turver says, has proven far more damaging than the war in Iran. Britain has been lumbered with an energy system that is needlessly expensive, overly reliant on imports and that carries the risks of widespread blackouts.

Jonathan Hall KC – the UK government’s independent reviewer of terrorism legislation – warns that Labour’s new definition of ‘anti-Muslim hostility’ is not fit for purpose. Here he tells spiked’s Georgina Mumford that it will not only fail in its aim of tackling prejudice against Muslims – it will also censor vital discussion on Islamism, terrorism and immigration, potentially emboldening religious hardliners and extremists.

On the day Kabul fell to the Taliban, UK Foreign Office diplomats were invited to take part in a panel discussion on World Afro Day. As the Iran War broke out, and a British air base in Cyprus came under attack from Hezbollah, the civil-service intranet was urging mandarins to ‘take charge of their development’. Such woke excesses and HR distractions are merely the tip of the iceberg, according to former diplomat Ameer Kotecha. Here, he explains why he quit the Foreign Office, how it fails to put Britain’s national interest first, and how foreign policy is being swayed by sectarian voting blocs.
