Lucia Rea, an Oldham survivor advocate, told GB News after the meeting with the Tories that it was a “one-time opportunity” to get a “national and statutory” inquiry.
She added: “We need to show the world how we handle child sexual exploitation in this country.”
Asked how it felt to finally have attention on the abuse gangs scandal, she said it was “helpful” to have the spotlight on the issue and that it “needs sorting out”.
