Scrapping of Compensation Programme for Child Sex Abuse Victims in Britain
The Labour Party government in Britain has scrapped a compensation programme for victims of child sex abuse due to financial austerity measures, despite previous promises by the Conservative government. The decision has faced criticism for downplaying the plight of victims, particularly in Muslim child rape grooming scandals. Previous reports have been deemed sufficient by the current government, leading to little accountability for failures in safeguarding young girls.
