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.

I have become the ‘IT Hub’ for three of my elderly neighbours. So much essential stuff now has to be done on-line. There seems to be an assumption that all elderly people have family or someone like me to step in. I am sure that isn’t the case
If you’ve ever helped an elderly neighbour navigate a banking app, call a helpline or read a tiny screen – you’ve witnessed digital exclusion first-hand. We must stop designing customer service systems that exclude.

Stay young – the online world isn’t designed for the old
Technology should empower, not exclude. For many, ageing means lost independence in a digital online world built without them in mind

Great piece on the Welsh government’s 20mph policy by @willhaycardiff.bsky.social
“What is great about evidence based policy is that it has a wonderful habit of working”
Inspiration for England as DfT work on the promised road safety strategy.

Turns out the 20mph limit was great idea!
Two years on from the controversial policy, it's becoming increasingly clear that the doubters were wrong

Swifts have lost more than half their population in 20 years. A simple £35 brick in new builds could help save them. Labour used to support this – now they’re planning to backtrack. Sign the petition now to show them the public still backs this nature-friendly fix:

Coverage of idiots claiming ‘betrayal’ or ‘surrender’ isn’t just bad journalism, it’s a dereliction of our duty to explain things. I’d actually forgotten just how bad it got but here we are, straight back to treating liars & spivs like authorities of equal weight to experts & honest brokers.

An anniversary worth marking.
I'm sure we're going to see the very people who have trashed its legacy seek to appropriate WW2 today - so let's remember what was really fought for: peace, a more united Europe, a land fit for heroes (mark 2) and the defeat of fascism.

Hey British media,
It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning.
Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

Surprised to see so many headlines from news outlets suggesting Putin has agreed to a ceasefire.
He’s done no such thing. He’s basically said he would do in theory, providing his conditions are met, on his terms. Which is just a variation on what he’s always said.

My sentiments precisely
Would I prefer to live in a world where we don‘t need to spend a penny on Defence? Yes. Do I think I live in such a world? No.
There is a dictator in the Kremlin attacking the Post-war security order in all of Europe, and the US President just blew up the Western Alliance.
