Women's safety is a national emergency, but that has to mean all women, because you know we live in a country where a woman is killed by her partner or former partner every five days, and the safety of women is of the utmost importance.
A lot of what happened in that period was that there was a total failure to listen to women, to believe women – especially working class girls who were reporting unimaginable abuse but weren't taken seriously.
It should be their hard work and their talent that takes them where they need to be.
You can find more whitewash in this report than at your local B&Q. Nothing in it exonerates Reform or Nigel Farage from the serious allegations that they still face. They can’t run from the truth forever.
