I'm surprised that you're surprised.

well given it's a city centre and night clubs don't seem to close until well after 3am yes I do find it surprising.

I think that if mental health had had anywhere near even half the funding of other illnesses, such as cancer research has recently, we'd all be significantly better off.

At least the latest budget is a step in the right direction (£1.25Bn announced for Mental health care), but significantly more needs to be spent on research as well.

Nice to know. What was the budget for it last time?

Men love to focus on the false accusation front of rape, this is one of the very few occasions that is a picture perfect example of the system catching it late and justice being done. Unfortunately the perpetrator was mentally ill and killed herself, tragic all round.

There should be a statutory ban on the identification of people who are arrested for sexual offences in England and Wales, a committee of MPs has said.
