An interesting piece in yesterday’s Times (£). An extract:
“The justice secretary has repeatedly suggested that 60 per cent of victims are pulling out of cases because of delays in the court system. However, the true statistics show the vast majority of rapes reported are abandoned long before a charge is brought, due to factors such as policing delays. The number of victims withdrawing post-charge is 8 per cent.”

Justice for Men & Boys 
His boss, Starmer, has form on this, regarding the blatant obfuscation and (let’s face it) deliberate lies (with anti-male malice aforethought) of the Levitt Report which Starmer co-authored with Alison Levitt QC in 2012.
The abandonment of accusation by 60% of the plaintiffs (referred to by Lammy as the ‘victims’, as though false accusation could never occur) is pretty much in concordance with the meta study carried out by Philip N S Rumney in 2006. Here, he found that rates of false accusation could be as high as 47%. The inglorious Starmer would have been well aware of this study, reported in The Cambridge Law Journal, 65(1), 128-158 (12th March 2006).
It’s likely that many of the plaintiffs may come to their senses betwixt accusation and their day in court. They may realise that evidence is required (although the Scottish courts are doing their best to remove this barrier, with the implication that a woman’s word IS the law).

Yes I expect the withdrawal of Jury trials to target sexual offenses even though they’re supposed only supposed to be withdrawn from cases that aren’t “serious” (ei that carry short custodial sentences). As expected Labour are proving incapable of doing anything positive about the economy, public debt, immigration, housing and the NHS. And so we’ll see them playing to their student politics strengths of virtue signalling for their “minority” interest groups.
