UK independent politician Rupert Lowe is equally loved and hated in the right-wing circles.
Since the Norfolk MP for Great Yarmouth left Reform UK party under a storm of allegations, Lowe found himself entwined in a bitter feud with Reform’s leader Nigel Farage over policy.
The former chairman of Southampton Football Club was elected as one of Reform UK’s five MPs in 2024. An outspoken man, he holds firm common-sense views in key areas such as immigration, economic policy, and social issues – and has a focus on UK’s ‘grooming gangs’ scandal.
RUPERT LOWE SAYS PLANS FOR GROOMING GANG INQUIRY ARE UNDERWAY
“I will source the funding. Reform and Farage failed to do so, I will not. When I make a promise, I keep it”
They have been betrayed by the Government, the authorities, the media and now Reform.

Now, he is launching an investigation into the scandal, in a story that is mixing personal conflict with a broader political crusade, all rooted in one of Britain’s most controversial issues.
An announcement.
Today, I am launching a national inquiry into the rape gang scandal.
It will focus on three questions – what happened, how did it happen and why was it allowed to happen? A crowdfunder has been set up, please see the link below. I will of course personally… pic.twitter.com/v9JY3HC9B6

Reform UK suspended Lowe on March 7 after allegations arose of workplace bullying and verbal threats against party chairman Zia Yusuf.
Lowe denied all accusations, calling them a ‘political assassination’ and a ‘witch hunt’, alleging that Reform tried to ‘silence’ him on the ‘Muslim grooming gangs’ issue.
He says the party pressured him to remove references to “mass deportations” from a February 2025 speech, a charge Farage denies.
Unchained, Lowe doubled down on his advocacy for a real investigation into the UK’s grooming gangs scandal.
Grok3: [The ‘Grooming gangs’ scandal is about the systematic sexual exploitation of thousands of mostly white working-class girls by groups of predominantly Pakistani-heritage men between the 1990s and 2010s.]
Today, he posted: “Over £130k raised in one afternoon for the rape gang inquiry – it makes me proud to be British.”
Here’s the complete Lowe post:
An announcement.
Today, I am launching a national inquiry into the rape gang scandal.
It will focus on three questions – what happened, how did it happen and why was it allowed to happen? A crowdfunder has been set up, please see the link below. I will of course personally donate.
A qualified panel will be appointed to oversee the inquiry, with a legal advisory team to support the panel throughout the inquiry.
There will be three stages. Evidence collection, public hearings, report/publication. There will be a secure submission process for evidence, and the hearings will be live-streamed. In non-attendance, questions will still be put on the record and evidence examined. The findings will be compiled, and a report will be published.
Any surplus funds raised will be donated to charities supporting victims, and every penny spent will be transparently published.
Extensive discussions have taken place over the last couple of weeks in regards to the participants of the panel and of the inquiry itself – more details will be announced soon, with the option to put yourself forward. Witness protection and safeguarding will be prioritised.
Finally, I would like to apologise. Promises were made by my former party about holding an inquiry, and those promises were not kept. I tried to push behind the scenes, but evidently I did not go far enough and for that I am sorry. I do not believe that making such bold claims which gave so many so much hope, and then failing to deliver is an honest way of conducting politics – particularly on an issue of this magnitude.
Positive press about a potential inquiry was accepted and used for political gain by Reform and Farage, but no real action was taken. That does not sit right with me, at all.
When I make a promise, I keep it. I stated on March 12th I would do this, and I am doing it.
We are now ready for step one, and this is just the start of the process.
If you wish to donate, especially a larger amount, please read the information on the crowdfunder page – permissible donors only (registered to vote in the UK/UK registered company).
The mass rape of working class white girls by mainly Pakistani men is a rotting stain on our country’s history.
This inquiry will not be able to fully deliver justice, but it can shine a light on the horror, and open people’s eyes to the vast scale of the vile abuse and exploitation.
We shouldn’t have to do this, it should be the Government. But as we know, that is not happening.
So, that responsibility now lies with us.
Any support you can give is appreciated.
There will be more updates very soon.
