Shadow justice secretary’s comments about British Pakistanis were condemned by former race adviser
Kemi Badenoch has defended Robert Jenrick after he described Britons of Pakistani origin as “people from alien cultures”, saying it was vital to have an open debate about the abuse and rape of women and girls by grooming gangs.
The Conservative leader’s intervention was made after Samuel Kasumu, a former Tory adviser on race issues, said Jenrick’s comments were highly divisive and risked people getting killed.
