Tories back Badenoch's risky' call for grooming gangs inquiry
Briefly

Kemi Badenoch's recent call for an inquiry into sexual grooming gangs reflects a significant shift in Conservative politics, aiming to address public concern amidst criticism from Labour.
Badenoch warned Keir Starmer that refusing a new inquiry could suggest a cover-up, which demonstrates her willingness to engage in risky political gambles that could reshape opposition dynamics.
Tory strategists recognize the political gamble involved in Badenoch's stance, noting that while it risks accusations of hypocrisy, direct engagement with voters through social media could yield support.
Despite accusations of opportunism, allies of Badenoch assert that her track record of addressing difficult issues is consistent, particularly as she navigates her new role as leader of the opposition.
