I prosecute and defend the most serious sexual offences in our courts.
The overwhelming majority of offenders are British-born. Overwhelmingly the victim is someone known to them, either a partner or relative.
Anybody purporting to care about protecting women might start there.

I'm sure some have been radicalised, but I'm betting a good proportion of them were always racist arseholes. Almost feels like an excuse to blame radicalisation.

There was a day in the not too distant past when a Conservative MP would have called for the full force of the law to be used against anyone intimidating a guy going out to work in a low paid job and paying his taxes. Now, well terms and conditions (correct skin colour, ethnicity mostly) apply

The West as an entity no longer exists. Democracy and the rule of law no longer exist in the US. Europe is too weak and divided to offer a serious alternative, and many of its countries may well follow the US trajectory. If Putin was 20 years younger, with the luxury of time, heβd know heβd win.

The BBC, ITV and Sky coverage on election night last year was absolutely appalling. The BBCβs was a disgrace. Fatuous, uninformative and not on top of results. Resignations and firings of presenters and producers should have followed.

Wherever possible, people should lead the lives they want to lead, free of discrimination, and with respect. There are certain areas where *some* trans people can not have some things they want. And that makes you a child killer, obvs.

Disregarding most of what the people are saying because it's just flat wrong, you can see how housing asylum seekers in hotels like this will anger locals. It's probably a symbol of what the place used to be and what it may have become. Labour are right to focus on ending the use of them.

Itβs a unique brand of political genius that decides to remind the voting public of the political disaster that happened under her own partyβs leadership, and then claims the current government is even worse than that when thatβs blatantly not the case.
