“We frequently don’t believe women. When they come forward, we minimise the abusive experience. We don’t give them the support they need. This Labour government is determined to turn that around.” The Rochdale grooming gang leader’s release from prison and the re-sentencing of two teens convicted of rape must force the justice system to consider whether consequences match the “seriousness” of offences, says education secretary Bridget Phillipson MP. Bridget Phillipson was speaking to Calum Macdonald in for John Pienaar on Times Radio Drive. Listen live every Monday to Thursday, from 4-7pm.
