Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 January 2026

Debate

Sentencing Bill

Contribution

The Government have pledged to halve violence against women and girls by the end of the decade and have recently published the violence against women and girls strategy. Opposition to this amendment exposes those pledges as hollow: the Government speak of protection yet legislate in the opposite direction.
