Gisèle Pelicot addressing her choice to keep the surname "Pelicot":
"When the trial began, my children were 'ashamed' of the name. I have grandchildren called that. I want them proud. My name is known worldwide now. They shouldn't be ashamed. Today we will remember Gisèle Pelicot."
What a woman.

As C4 explains, children of single farmers with the average value of a farm (£2.2m) will pay £140k tax. It’s zero if the farmer is married. The govt plans mean farmers will receive a £1.5m tax free allowance. That’s £1m more than the most of the population.
