Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 January 2026

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

My constituent Katie Brett’s little sister was brutally murdered when she was 16 years of age. Katie is campaigning for Sasha’s law to give victims’ families longer to apply to the unduly lenient sentence scheme. It is a duty of a Labour Government to make sure that the rights of victims and their families always come first. As the Victims and Courts Bill progresses through the other place, will the Leader of the House help to ensure that the Government listen to those who, like Katie, are fighting for justice for their loved ones?
