Rotherham child abuse: Calls for police commissioner to quit

Pressure is growing on South Yorkshire's police commissioner to resign in the wake of a damning report into child abuse in Rotherham.

Shaun Wright was the Labour councillor in charge of children's services at Rotherham Council from 2005 to 2010.

An inquiry found at least 1,400 children in the town were sexually exploited by predominantly Asian criminal gangs between 1997 and 2013.
