the home secretary yvette cooper has been on herfeetin secretary yvette cooper has been on her feet ina statement from her in the past 30 minutes in the house of commons acknowledging the house of commons acknowledging the scale of the depravity of these crimes and also the breadth of the failings. not least the fear from so many for so long that speaking out would be deemed to be racist. and she said she would bring what she described as a new impetus and action to try to deliver some of the recommendations set out in that national report that concluded a couple of years ago. she said she would make it mandatory to report abuse making it a an offence to fail to report or cover up child sexual abuse. she will assure that the police take allegations around this much more seriously and there will be more measures to come in the coming weeks about the growing problem of online abuse. the conservatives though are continuing to maintain their argument that there should be a full public inquiry and that the national inquiry and that the national inquiry of a few years ago was too narrow in i

you have seen yvette cooper announcement tonight. it helped? you have seen yvette - announcement tonight. if you say that we have the jay review and i that we have the jay review and things that need to be done and we shouldn't have another long grass review because people will get very cynical if we just have review after review on every subject and i say that someone who has sat on inquiries and i am a public lawyer. if you say, we don't need to review and we have recommendations, you want to get on and implement them. i saw brilliant interviewing and stephen kinnock going, was it elon musk? if you're responding to the very dangerous and powerful man spreading lies about the prime minister, about the victims minister, about the victims minister, you have to respond. and if you accelerate your implementation of the jay review, so be it, it is the right thing to do. henry hill. potentially, because the government you're right, the government you're right, the government does have to respond. i do think— government does have to respond. i do think it _ government do

yvette coopen minister underneath yvette cooper, rejected an inquiry into those gangs. let's get messed them all up? let's get her thoughts on my panel this evening. columnist and broadcaster esther krakue. gb news presenter alex armstrong and the journalist jonathan les. esther, i'll start with you. do you think yvetteper is basically just messed everything up? i mean, if so, why is she still in a job? well. >> i don't think she should be home secretary for various reasons, but, i mean, if you want to delve into the individual circumstances, it's sort of individual situations that she's messed up. i mean, where do we begin? we have to look at this woman's background before we think, why has she messed this all up? well, because she has no real life experience. this is this is like much of the cabinet, studied ppe at oxford, worked as a special adviser in 20 something. you know, in our 20s when we're trying not to burn pasta. yeah, most of us are not special advisers of anything. but somehow she became a special adviser to senior members of the government at the time, including harriet harman. she had two years, two count them two years of actual work experience outside of politics before she became an mp in 1997, and she's basically done that for her entire life. she has no idea what most people go

this review was commissioned for the home secretary of yvette cooper last autumn, following secretary of yvette �*to.owing secretary of yvette cooper last autumn, “to justice. the approach to justice. the idea that rapist gangs is merely an alleged problem that is exploited by the far right is an inqu exploited by the far right is an insult to the thousands of young women who were the victims of this scandal. and we know that the wuhan lab leak theory was once considered a conspiracy, and yet it's now believed to be the most likely source of covid 19 by the cia, which is not a body that normally promotes conspiracy theories. this review, the home office review, was conducted by civil servants, but on the government's instructions. and what it has churned out is the government's view. it was, until it became embarrassing. labour wants to reinforce non—crime hate incidents. it thinks allegations of two tier policing are a far right narrative, and it fundamentally wants to clamp down on freedom of speech. the good news is that the government can't get away with this. it's been shamed out of pursui

yvette coopen along its home secretary, yvette cooper. fit for purpose. she's had a few major flashpoints to deal with since taking the role, and i think she's messed them all up. let's deal with southport first. it now seems absolutely clear that she knew in the aftermath of the attack about axel rudakubana violent history, prevent referrals, the fact that he had a jihadi training manual and a biological weapon in the shape of some ricin in his possession. starmer himself admitted to knowing. >> yes, i knew the details as they were emerging. that is the usual practice in a case such as this. but you know and i know that it would not have been right to disclose those details. >> surely she knew too. surely she knew when she did this. >> times have changed, starmer. come on. need it. how many more children does it? mine. next. got your photos? off you go. make a real change, prime minister. make a real change. datchet. go away. >> but this critical information was not disclosed. which means that while misinformation fuelled the summer disorder, she was sitting on, information that could have, in my view, prevented that disorder. now, she says it's because she didn't want to prejudice the case. >> we have been keen to publish the information on prevent referrals from the start, but throughout, the advice to us has been clear. if we had ignored the advice that we were given from the about the case that put towards us and about the information that the police and the cps were working through in order to get justice. and if, as a result, a killer had walked free, no one would ever have forgiven the government or anyone else. >> fine. but did that information vacuum prompt the riots? some people think so. now, in the wake of the manchester airport incident, this was the scene outside rochdale police station. >> we saw you. >> we saw you. >> we saw you. >> we know you're in there. come out. explain yourself. why has only one officer been suspended? what about the rest of them? >> cricket. absolute cricket from the home secretary on that. as far as i'm aware. i don't think she dealt with that situation very well at all. do you? and then we come to the pakistani rape gangs. now, jess phillips, of course, who's a minister underneath yvettepen minister underneath yvette cooper, rejected an inquiry into those gangs. cue mass outrage. huge uproar. days went by. elon musk got stuck in famously. so, didn't he? we here @gbnews had an exclusive poll showing that 73% of the public wanted an inquiry. and then eventually yvette cooper comes out and announces a series of local grooming gangs. inquiries. >> effective local inquiries can delve into far more local detail and deliver more locally relevant answers and change than a lengthy nationwide inquiry can provide. so tom crowther kc, chair of the telford inquiry, has agreed to work with the government to develop a new framework for victim centred, locally led inquiries where they are needed and as a first step, to work with oldham council and up to four other pilot areas. >> so they got it wrong initially and then they u—turned under pressure. i don't think we can say that she's handled that well. i mean, what else is her job? oh yeah. stopping the boats. well, we have seen more

of is demands for an inquiry into grooming, and the home secretary yvette cooper, we are expecting her to address grooming. that yvettecting her to address grooming.— to address grooming. that is right, she was effectively _ to address grooming. that is right, she was effectively attacked - to address grooming. that is right, she was effectively attacked for - she was effectively attacked for jumping on the elon musk bandwagon on grooming by labour politicians. she says no, it's about the victims, she met some victims recently. there has been huge pressure on labour not just from elon musk, but from reform and the conservative party, including sarah champion, representing rotherham where there is estimated i400 victims of child sexual abuse. she had called recently for a five—point plan, but central to it was having a series of new local inquiries where victims or local councils demanded them of putting them in a national framework, giving them powers to mandate people to give evidence to those inquiries. it looks as though in the face of our pressure, yvette cooper will come up with something quite similar, she will

yvette coopen the home secretary, yvette cooper, replied to mr tapp and she accepted that axel rudakubana ought to be treated. you've guessed it, as a terrorist. >> because this man has been charged under the terrorism act and has pleaded guilty to a terrorist offence. i can confirm he will be treated as a terrorist offender in prison as well. >> so what a journey we've gone from. this absolutely was not terrorism. and if you say it is, then it's fake news to the home secretary confirming the day before the judge passes his ruling tomorrow. actually it's terrorism. clear. okay. let's carry on the conversation in the studio with gb news political editor chris hope. chris, this stinks. it absolutely stinks. like, we have to be absolutely clear about the fact that if the police are today claiming that they were told by the crown prosecution service to go quiet, but the police didn't go quiet on the first day, they said it was not terrorism. the deputy leader of the country doubled down on that. and now we've got a situation where that appears to be changing fast. the full truth will come out in court tomorrow. many, many questions are being asked about the timeline, about we can't put anything out there. it will compromise the case. and yet evidence was put out there in october about the writing about the jihadi manual. chris, a lot of people are asking a lot of questions. and guess who didn't ask a question today at prime minister's question time? kemi badenoch. sir keir starmer was on the ropes there for the taking. instead, she randomly went on about an education bill. nobodyin went on about an education bill. nobody in the country is interested in the education bill today. they're interested in the biggest story in britain at the moment. you've got something for us, though, chris. there might be a reason why the conservatives aren't quite so keen to talk about this. and this is astonishing. >> well, let's get before we get to that. what could be a reason? we don't know yet. let's get back to what happened today. today we're expecting kemi badenoch to have a go at keir starmer about the southport attacks, about why the, the facts of the of the terror links didn't emerge until charging in october after the late july attacks. instead of mentioning she she name checked southport and said i'll come to that at a later point and then talked to the pm and grilled him about education policy, which i would argue is a big issue for millions of people i know. not how. >> now. >> not today. >> not today. >> the politics of this. >> the politics of this. >> is. >> is. >> the politics of this is martin is why change the subject? in a sense, it helped starmer. starmer has got some difficult questions to answer on southport, and the leader of the opposition chose not to. now they tell me that they want to recognise genuine anger from kemi badenoch and the wider party about what labour is doing to our schools. they're reversing schools freedoms. kevin bacon was in an academy recently, gave an interview there is concerned she. of course we heard, we heard earlier on on on on gb news that that they they couldn't that that they they couldn't that that you know she she felt that she had to you could have an army person hiring someone from p. so i had a text. i got to read that text to you shortly. so that's interesting. in the house yesterday though, another fact emerged which is overlooked. yvette that the government had briefed the tory party at the same time as the terror links emerged. now the raisi link emerged in august. >> in august. >> in august. >> now listen, the al—qaeda manual in october at the same time as that happened, the home office found out and the tories were briefed. now, i've had a text here. >> i'm going to come back to that in a minute because i want to we've got to bring mark white in and get your ducks in a row. i think this this is going to go tonto. let's talk now to our home security editor, mark white. mark, i believe you've got some more developments on the story here in germany. >> yeah, really disturbing developments coming out of southern germany, northwestern bavaria, the city of aschaffenburg, where a two year old boy has been stabbed to death along with a 41 year old man in a park in this city. the suspect, a 21 year old afghan man, is now in police custody. two other people are, we are told, very seriously injured following this incident. th

yvette cooper. for anyone that hasn't been following the goings on, bring us up to speed, mark, if you will. >> well, what we got effectively today was confirmation that the prime minister and yvetterime minister and yvette, the authorities, knew a lot more about axel rudakubana than the pubuc about axel rudakubana than the public were told at the time. now, understandably, the public won't be told and shouldn't be told everything about a case, but there was a perception amongst many people that in the wider community that they weren't being told some key facts in this case now that fuelled in particular the internet rumours that were swirling around the internet, the conspiracy theories compounded the sense of anger and accusations of a cover up. but now, all these months later, with axel rudakubana having pleaded guilty to the 16 offences that he faced, the prime minister has said yes. there were key factors that he was aware of right from the outset, but he had good reason. the home secretary had good reason. other other members of the police, the crown prosecution service, had good reason not to tell the public. and that was because, as you heard from the clip, there it is the
