The Standard’s exclusive investigation on London’s harrowing grooming gang epidemic uncovers the repeated story of vulnerable youngsters let down by the authorities there to protect them. The Standard has spoken to social workers, charities, experts and survivors who all say sexual abuse by gangs is ubiquitous across the capital.

From police failure to institutional cover-up and establishment silence, The Standard’s Chief Political Correspondent Rachael Burford is here with the latest.
