Foreign Office (FO) strongly condemned the growing racist and Islamophobic commentary directed at the Pakistani diaspora in the United Kingdom.

FO spokesperson Shafqat Ali Khan on Monday made these remarks during a weekly press briefing in Islamabad, expressing concern over the recent public discourse surrounding the British Pakistani community.

The statement followed a controversial debate sparked by Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, who targeted the Pakistani community in the UK, referring to them in connection with “Asian grooming gangs.”

Musk also accused the UK government of protecting these gangs, labelling UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer a “rape genocide apologist” and calling for his imprisonment….

Khan concluded by stressing that demonising an entire community for the actions of a few individuals is unacceptable and must be condemned. He reiterated that British Pakistanis continue to be a vital part of the fabric of the UK, enriching its culture and contributing to its success.

And they are right. Only 12% of grooming gangsters are Pakistanis.
