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.

How funny - the government has now ordered an inquiry into the ‘Battle of Orgreave’ - 18 June 1984. This was one of the high points of state repression of the miners’ strike. One tool of this repression was the imposition of restrictive bail conditions on striking miners … 1/
