Gisèle Pelicot, post convictions, says she "never regretted" opening up the trial, "so society could see what was happening" adding she has "confidence in our capacity collectively to find a better future where women & men can live together in mutual respect". What a debt of gratitude we owe her.

Taxpayers can’t fund payouts for women hit by pension age rise, Starmer says Waspi campaigners say they will keep fighting on pensions after the government rejects compensation.

Taxpayers can't fund payouts for Waspi women, Starmer says.

Nonsense. Payment can be phased.

Govts that fund wars; bailout banks & energy companies; hand Β£895bn QE to speculators, subsidies to oil, gas, biomass, auto, steel, microchip & others can also fund justice.

Missed opportunity by ⁦β€ͺ@_Government_UK‬⁩ to make it clear that a #haigh conviction is spent, and that those with spent #convictions should not face public pillorying or discrimination. This protection needs to be strengthened in law. ⁦β€ͺ@unlockcharity‬⁩ #humanrights ⁦β€ͺ⁦β€ͺ@MoJGovUK‬⁩ ⁦β€ͺ

Government to review Post Office-style prosecutions The government is to review the oversight of private prosecutions, after the Post Office Horizon scandal.

Wow...that came out of the blue. bbc.co.uk/news/article.... Government are consulting on problems in the Single Justice Procedure, a bit of the justice system which is currently unjust in many ways. Our podcast was a good primer www.transformjustice.org.uk/news-insight...
