In this episode of "H.J. Talks About Abuse," Alan Collins from the abuse team at Hugh James discusses recent updates on the topical issue of grooming gangs and the calls for inquiries into their activities. He explores the vulnerabilities of young victims, the failings of authorities, and the political complexities surrounding these cases. With ongoing scandals and criticism over the actions of local and national politicians, Alan emphasizes the urgent need for a national inquiry to understand the systemic issues and prevent future exploitation.   Who we are: We are a leading, full-service UK law firm.   Since our beginning, we have been led by the things that matter.
