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.

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

Missed opportunity by ⁦‪@_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. ⁦‪@unlockcharity‬⁩ #humanrights ⁦‪⁦‪@MoJGovUK‬⁩ ⁦‪
