11:39 pm
have them in jail and so, how's it going to pay for it?— going to pay for it? this is an interview— going to pay for it? this is an interview with _ going to pay for it? this is an interview with rishi - going to pay for it? this is an interview with rishi sunak i going to pay for it? this is an l interview with rishi sunak that details the dreadful detail of the girl of a girl details the dreadful detail of the girl ofa girl who details the dreadful detail of the girl of a girl who was dragged into a driveway and sexually assaulted by someone who should've been in jail, he was wanted in return to jail that day and please give up looking for him. and it is an astonishing comparison that you've got the prime minister next to the picture of this beautiful young lady and saying that i care as a father it is apparent and i'm very tough on crime and i want all children to grow up and all the women to be safe on the streets. it is with pointing out, i think that one in four women are raped or sexually assaulted at some point in their life as an adult. one and 20 men. one and six children are sexually abused in this country. there are nine and ten girls, young women, which teenagers in schools
11:40 pm
sent unsolicited sexual photographs. and if you want to report a rain case, it would take two and a half years to to court. it would take and will be 99% of cases that actually get reported to police that have never leading to conviction. and those are just the ones reported. it's worth pointing out that one into rapes of women or by a partner of the next partner, five and six women and they can name the perpetrators. the perpetrators almost always can tell the police to exactly who did it and he was responsible we still don't get it to court and anything under two years of the chances of getting a conviction is i%? if it was meant having that regular attack and assault on them and invasion, there would be something done about it and you'll be called an epidemic. but because it happens to one in four women instead of men and there are
11:41 pm
not currently 5 million men in this country who know what it is like to be raped and sexually assaulted since the age of 16, where is there are 5 million women, including many women were watching this, nothing is done about this. although rishi sunak is only been prime minister forfive minutes, he was sunak is only been prime minister for five minutes, he was chancellor and did not provide enough money to give the courts backlogs of rain cases god prosecuted quicker and in that time, he slipped the circumstances for the barrister strike because they were not getting enough legal aid funding, so that the circumstances which police are not able to investigate rapes any quicker than they already do because they have to go through so much technological data have the circumstances which police are not able to investigate rapes any quicker than they already do because they have to go through so much technological data after time. there is so much wrong with ourjustice system and rishi sunak can possibly have fixed it in the five minutes he's been in thejob but i don't think anybody, if i was doing the job, i could not sit there and say, look, i really care because i have a daughter and i'm tough on crime. i
11:42 pm
wouldn't have to brass neck to know thatis wouldn't have to brass neck to know that is what's going on in the system and then sit there and say that i'm going to crack down on it. because what are singing with the reality is for people who are not you is immensely different and i think, i respect him a lot more if he sat there and said that it is just not ok. it is not a cable we have done so far it needs to be fixed. as an epidemic of sexual violence against women in this country and i'm going to go out there and sorted i cheer him on. but i would agree with on that is that i do agree _ i would agree with on that is that i do agree that the courts are a problem — do agree that the courts are a problem and it's absolutely clear that when there is a very low prosecution rate in general for crimes— prosecution rate in general for crimes leaving aside the particular ones _ crimes leaving aside the particular ones that— crimes leaving aside the particular ones that susie has been talking about— ones that susie has been talking about in— ones that susie has been talking about in some of those most dramatic crimes— about in some of those most dramatic crimes and _ about in some of those most dramatic crimes and very much need to be expedited — crimes and very much need to be expedited through the court system as fast— expedited through the court system as fast as _ expedited through the court system

11:47 pm
that killing, leads to all sorts of horrific situations where they're using and abusing their access to peoples information is in vulnerable people. and in the same way that it is for doctors, you have to be able to say that exploiting vulnerable people as a criminal offence for police officers is much as it is for anyone else in the can be prosecuted for that even if they resign and leave the forest stop by the article does going to say that he would like a date for the nhs social care and public services to deal with cases involving mental health in the state of police and hoping it will free up officer time as well. and ijust want to add that is all because there are other factors included in that article but let's turn very quickly to the mirror and they think it's also become a of this when the news news broke earlier this morning? i wouldn't be drinking if i was there and _ morning? i wouldn't be drinking if i was there and i _ morning? i wouldn't be drinking if i was there and i won't _ morning? i wouldn't be drinking if i was there and i won't be botheredl was there and i won't be bothered personally— was there and i won't be bothered personally but clearly, it is something that isjust happened in

11:59 pm
in some western areas, particularly in the northwest here, but many of us will have a fine day. now it will be quite cool air, rushing in off the atlantic, temperatures typically into single figures across most of the uk, maybe in the south touching around 11—12 celsius for a moment or two in the afternoon on sunday. how about the outlook into next week? it is looking unsettled, monday will be a wet and windy day for some of us. and those temperatures holding around single figures in the north, closer to double in the south. bye— bye.
