How she was bullied to protect Dershowitz
To be very clear, Virginia Giuffre was made to say she mistakenly identified Alan Dershowitz as one of the people who sexually abused her. Here is the proof from this week's Epstein files dropped by the House Oversight Committee.

Refuge isn’t weakness. It’s an investment. And the returns are human, immeasurable, and generational.

There is no reason for a child to get married, ever.

No religion demands child brides.

Any excuse you hear is a lie.

Call it out every single time.
“Child marriage strips children of their bodily autonomy and freedom, legitimizes statutory rape and child sexual abuse under the guise of marriage, and exposes them to coercion that they lack the legal capacity to resist."

Its authenticity was discredited because of his reputation, but also because he was quick with gin at the time and wearing an item of knitwear back to front.

This statement not acceptable and I suspect not sustainable. Large majority of public support principle of asylum, support letting people stay permanently. Majority for that among Labour and other progressive parties’ voters is overwhelming. The Reform voters this is aimed at will never vote Labour
"The era of permanent protection is over"

Is this Labour government really saying it was wrong in principle to let these refugees of the last 75 years to stay, settle and become British - and they believe that should NEVER happen again in principle or practice?
