Onlyfans etc is a completely different issue to the rape of children by
'grooming gangs'. Onlyfans etc raises a general issue of a new form of sex
trade. It is not what the report is about. Personally I am not convinced by
the "sex work is empowering" argument currently doing the rounds. But it's
a different issue.

I have not read the report but it appears to play up a racial component as
a means to heighten fear of non-white Britons and new immigrants. The
existence of "grooming gangs" is serious in itself. Downplaying the
involvement of white perpetrators is a disingenuous use of the abuse of
these girls to further a racist agenda.
