You have to hand it to them the feminists have stamina and guile. Lammy’s Reforms will in fact have little direct impact on sexual offences because the threshold is the potential length of custodial sentence. And of course Sexual offences have long sentence tariffs. However the trouble he’s having with what is a gross denial of basic rights has given an opportunity to get the “special courts” for Domestic Abuse and Sexual Offences slipped in. Having failed in Scotland due to the opposition of practically the entire legal professions in Scotland. It seems quite possible they’ll appear to get Lammy’s Bill through.
