Second Candidate to Chair Grooming Gangs Inquiry Withdraws After Survivors Quit

Jim Gamble is believed to have withdrawn as a candidate to chair the grooming gangs inquiry. Paul Faith/PA

The man thought to be the only remaining candidate to chair the national grooming gangs inquiry has withdrawn from consideration for the role.

Former police officer Jim Gamble said he had pulled out of the appointment process because of a “lack of confidence” in him among some survivors of grooming gangs “due to my previous occupation”.
