And lets not forget, a man who had to resign because of his corrupt activities as a Minister.
A crooked, hate filled and ignorant parent. I worry for his daughters too.
A total disgrace of a paper.
A total disgrace of a man.

I would worry for Jenrick’s daughters too, being brought up by a hate-mongering opportunist, driven mad by Tory failure and now desperate to whip up prejudice, division and social unrest in his vile pursuit of power.

This is the thing we so rarely talk about: The role of NGOs, think tanks charities and pressure groups to improve political debate. Was crucial today, but all took place in the background.
Today I feel both for and against, all serious major points on assisted dying got good airing. Given this was not a government but a Private Members’ Bill, that fact stands to enormous credit of civil society on both sides who briefed & resourced a major debate with expertise and skill.

The men who seem to want us barefoot in the kitchen having their babies - are almost always the same men who end up having multiple affairs, accused of sexual assault, many divorces & estrangements etc.

They cry that women don’t respect traditional values anymore - yet they have no values at all

Gisèle Pelicot in her final statement: “Whatever trauma you go through in childhood – and I have, though maybe not the same ones – there’s a point when you choose the way you are going to be in life. You go right or left, become a criminal or not. We all make our choices.” #ShameMustChangeSides

And having, like @marquelawyers.bsky.social, spoken with 100s of survivors of sexual crimes (note not talking about this case as it’s on foot & not one I worked on), it’s unbelievably stressful going through criminal justice process & they don’t need people on social media making it worse.
