Labour — Tottenham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 December 2025

Debate

Criminal Court Reform

Contribution

I am very grateful to my hon. Friend, who puts her remarks so well. Let us be clear that there are defendants playing the system, and if we continue to allow them to do so, vulnerable victims of the most serious offences in our country will pay the price. That is why this is not just about financial investment; it has to be about reform, and I am determined to see this through.
