Starmer accused Badenoch of bandwagon jumping, claiming she only now speaks on sexual abuse gangs due to social media influences, particularly recent tweets from Elon Musk.
In a heated exchange, Starmer challenged Badenoch's sudden interest, stating, "Not once in eight years did she stand here and say what she just said" regarding the scandal.
Badenoch defended her position saying she had raised the issue in speeches, justifying her calls for a new inquiry, while countering Starmer’s skepticism by noting her past role.
The prime ministerial debate highlighted tensions over the handling of grooming gangs, with both leaders vying to position themselves favorably in the political discourse around children’s welfare.
