Sarah Champion

"In 2018, she wrote an op-ed for the Sun addressing the "problem [of] British Pakistani men raping white girls", in reference to the Rotherham grooming-gang scandal. She was subsequently accused of being Islamophobic and was forced to quit the shadow cabinet. Given the treatment of Champion, you can see why many in the public eye opt, in the interests of self-preservation, to describe Pakistani grooming-gang members as "Asian" – if indeed they talk about the issue at all."
