Anna Dixon, MP for Shipley, says she has received death threats and misogynistic online abuse after a video was shared by Conservative MP Robbie Moore about her position on a national grooming-gangs inquiry. Police have been notified and an investigation is under way. Moore posted a video accusing Dixon of misleading the public and dismissing calls for an inquiry. Dixon says she voted against a specific Tory proposal because it included an amendment to the children's wellbeing and schools bill and denies opposing a Bradford district focus as part of any inquiry. Moore condemned threats but defended raising concerns about her stance.
I want local residents to be aware that I have received threats of death and violence directly posted in response to a misleading video recently shared by the MP for Keighley and Ilkley, Robbie Moore. These have been reported to the police, and an investigation is currently under way. It is irresponsible behaviour for any MP of any party to put out such blatant misinformation about a colleague.
I have always been transparent and direct with constituents about my reasons for voting in favour of the government's children's wellbeing and schools bill in January 2025, and I am disturbed by Robbie Moore's seeming willingness to spread misinformation on this scale with his constituents and beyond, particularly when it pertains to such
Shipley's Labour MP Anna Dixon is misleading public' on grooming gangs inquiry. Anna is telling constituents she voted against an inquiry because it was a political stunt'. But a closer look at the facts shows Anna has been dismissing calls for an inquiry since day one.
