Home and Justice Secretaries 'deeply ashamed' of rape conviction rates.

[stockhausen]

They shouldn't be "deeply ashamed", they should resign and volunteer at a Rape Crisis Centre (https://www.rapecentre.org.uk/) -(https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-57511425).

So much for the rise in "Woke" culture

It does seem that this change may be associated with mobile 'phones and Social Media but whatever the reason it must be very traumatic for both parties.

 

[stockhausen]

Each year there are about 128,000 victims of rape and attempted rape but fewer than 20% of them report the crime to the police, according to the report.

So 80% of (alleged) rapes or attempted rapes (sexual assault) are never even reported!

As to the 57% of complainants who DO report a rape and subsequently withdraw their complaint, perhaps they should not be treated as the criminal?

 

[stockhausen]

. . . is it still rape? would I be to blame? . . .

If you drink and drive and run someone down in the street, is it manslaughter? Would you be to blame?
