What are the immediate consequences of Baroness Casey's report on grooming gangs, and how does it impact the political landscape?

Sir Keir Starmer criticized politicians who "shout and scream but do nothing," defending his past stance against a national grooming gangs inquiry. He now supports an inquiry following Baroness Casey's report, which revealed authorities avoided addressing the ethnicity of perpetrators for fear of being labeled racist. The report found ethnicity data was missing for two-thirds of perpetrators, but disproportionate offending by men of Asian ethnicity was noted in three police forces.
