How woman's false rape and trafficking claims - compared to film 'Taken' by prosecutors - triggered Tommy Robinson led protests, heightened racial tensions and ruined lives of men she accused




Eleanor Williams (pictured right and inset) sparked outrage in the Cumbrian town of Barrow when she claimed on social media she had been groomed, trafficked and beaten, in May 2020. Posting pictures of her bruised and beaten body, the 22-year-old said she had been the victim of an Asian grooming gang in the port town 'for years', leading to protests led by former EDL leader Tommy Robinson (pictured at a different protest right). It heightened racial tensions - one curry house had its windows smashed and a Muslim takeaway owner was chase down the street by men who poured alcohol on his head. It also painted a target on the backs of the men she accused - one man saw his wife leave him over the claims, while another family were forced to leave the town altogether. But it has now been found that the claims made by Williams were all false, a fabrication made by Williams that prosecutors said had ruined people's lives.
