"I feel like I let him down in his life and I don't think it's right I don't get justice for him just because he's not here," she said.

We expect terms of reference to be agreed in the coming months," Shah said.

Greater Manchester Police Assistant Chief Constable Steph Parker said "we absolutely recognise the lifelong impact of child sexual exploitation, which is why we are so committed to protecting victims and pursuing offenders.

The government spokesperson added: "Because we know there is not a binary approach to this, the minister for safeguarding and violence against women [Jess Phillips] will continue to engage with victims, to ensure their views are represented and justice can be delivered.""We want something positive to come out of what we're going through so hopefully this event will be really special."

Sarah added: "It's the power of school mums. We're a formidable force and we're determined to do as much good as we can."You’re probably used to politicians telling you we’re living in the most dangerous times for decades.
