Labour MP quits shadow minister post over row on her article blaming Pakistani men for rapes

1 Champion resigned as the shadow minister for women and equalities after her article for The Sun led to a furore. “Britain has a problem with British Pakistani men raping and exploiting white girls. There. I said it,” she had written

2 “Does that make me a racist? Or am I just prepared to call out this horrifying problem for what it is? For too long we have ignored the race of these abusers and, worse, tried to cover it up. No more”

3 “These people are predators and the common denominator is their ethnic heritage,” she wrote, after 17 men and a woman were convicted of sexually abusing girls in Newcastle.
