Leading Labour's Opposition Day Debate

For International Women's Day this year I led Labour’s Opposition Day debate on this Government's appalling track record on tackling rape.

Under the conservatives we have seen the effective decriminalisation of this crime with just 1.3% of reported rapes being prosecuted. This is a record low despite reports of the crime being at record highs.
​
Labour has a plan to tackle this which I put forward but until the Government backs it women and girls will continue to be failed. You can see my speech here and my article on this here.
