16.06.2025 ⇢ The Day Starmer Released the Casey Report
⌨

The Casey Report into grooming gangs dominated coverage, revealing what authorities called "clear evidence" linking Pakistani men to child abuse networks. The report found children were blamed for crimes committed against them, while flawed data was repeatedly used to dismiss claims about Asian grooming gangs. Home Secretary Cooper announced ethnicity of suspects would now be logged after years of authorities "dodging" the truth. Conservative leader Badenoch attacked Starmer's previous dismissal of inquiry calls as "extraordinary failure of leadership."

The Iran-Israel conflict continued its fourth day with Iranian state television bombed during a live broadcast, forcing anchors to flee as debris fell in the studio. Israeli forces issued evacuation warnings for parts of Tehran while claiming full control over Iranian airspace. By evening, Trump announced a completed US-UK trade deal at the G7, though footage showed Starmer picking up papers Trump had dropped.

The Air India crash investigation progressed with new footage showing the British survivor walking away while the plane exploded behind him.
