Original Note:
Keir Starmer was appointed as Director of Public Prosecutions in 2008, not 2004. https://www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/cps-keir-starmer-to-step-down-after-five-year-term/70505.article The police do not prosecute in the UK (that's the role of the CPS), so the claim the DPP told them not to is false. https://fullfact.org/online/starmer-muslim-grooming-prosecution-crime/
