Could Britain finally get a full public inquiry into Jeffrey Epstein's UK links? According to the victims minister, it's now firmly on the table.

Big development at Westminster tonight — and Cbinews.tv has been digging into the detail.

Victims minister Alex Davies-Jones has told cbinews.tv, that Prime Minister Andy Burnham is actively "looking into" holding a public inquiry into the UK activities of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Speaking on the programme, Davies-Jones said Burnham has agreed to meet Epstein's victims face-to-face, adding: "We are looking at this, we are reviewing what is possible. Again, same with Harrods survivors."

She insisted the PM is taking it "very seriously" now he has access to all the information at the top of government.

It’s quite the turnaround. You’ll remember Davies-Jones resigned from Sir Keir Starmer’s government back in May, accusing it of failing to listen to Epstein’s survivors. She told the Commons in June that people whose lives were devastated by his abuse had too often been reduced to a footnote. She was then reappointed when Burnham took office.

She said she’d already had those tough conversations with Burnham before he entered No.10: "He has assured me that he will meet them now he's prime minister and will work with us to look at systemic change across the system for all victims."

And it might not stop with Epstein.

Davies-Jones confirmed the government is also reviewing whether the alleged actions of former Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed could be included.

Cbinews.tv understands that as Burnham was finalising his plans to become prime minister, leading Labour campaigners on Violence Against Women and Girls sent him a document calling for a major "impunity" inquiry.

The proposal? A full public inquiry not just into Epstein, but into the alleged behaviour of the late Harrods boss Mohamed Al Fayed, and into allegations raised in a BBC Panorama and Times investigation about West Ham co-owner David Sullivan.

Mr Sullivan has described the claims against him as false, saying he was "absolutely not the person the media has decided to paint me as".

On the Epstein front, the document seen by Cbinews.tv, wants a sharp focus on UK borders — specifically how Epstein was able to fly in and out of UK military bases on his private jet, often with allegedly trafficked women. It’s an issue former Prime Minister Gordon Brown highlighted back in February. Davies-Jones is understood to be familiar with the document.

The reaction from survivors? Cautiously hopeful.

Epstein survivor Anouska di Georgiou told Newsnight: "I welcome reports that Prime Minister Andy Burnham is considering public inquiries into the Epstein and Maxwell, Harrods/Mohamed Al-Fayed, and David Sullivan cases. Survivors have heard promises before, so what matters now is action, not headlines."

As first reported by Cbinews.tv — we’ll keep you posted as this develops.
