Today I publish the London Victim Attrition Review — a landmark study exposing why so many victims disengage from the justice system. The findings are stark: the system is failing victims. We cannot accept this status quo. Victims deserve better.

The introduction of a legal definition of honour-based abuse is a landmark step in protecting victims. Alongside new guidance and training, this will help ensure these abhorrent crimes are consistently recognised, investigated and perpetrators are brought to justice.

It’s clear from this case that the @CICAgov compensation scheme hasn’t kept up with the law. The crime was prosecuted here, and yet the victim isn’t eligible for compensation. Govt should use the Victims & Courts Bill to close this loophole.

This letter speaks for countless frontline support organisations - many facing existential crisis. Even amid tight finances, we cannot deprioritise this vital support. Without it, we will see even more victims withdrawing from the process, and offenders left to act with impunity.

We should all be very concerned by the incidents described in this article and the surge in antisemitism. World events can never be used to justify such hatred. Police and CPS must act swiftly, holding offenders to account and ensuring victims feel safe

Almost 1/3rd of Crown Court trials in London don't take place on the day scheduled, and this is just one example why. While Leveson's reforms are urgently needed, small inefficiencies have a big impact on victims, and this needs the scrutiny of an independent courts inspectorate.

My Victim Attrition research shows delays to charging decisions in rape and sexual violence cases can cause survivors to quit the process. If you’re a survivor of sexual violence & have waited 3+ years for a charging decision, please share your experience .@RapeCrisisEandW ⬇️.

I’ve long called for robust exclusion zones that put victims’ safety and freedom first. I welcome today’s announcement and hope it marks a shift: it must be offenders who face restrictions- not their victims.

The latest @CST_UK report shows worryingly high levels of antisemitic hate crime, the second- highest total ever recorded. Antisemitism has no place in London or anywhere in the UK. Police and CPS must act robustly to restore confidence among victims and the Jewish community.

I urge everyone to listen to Violet's experience and hear the impact of ‘cruel’ court delays on victims. Just last week I was made aware of a rape case going to court in 2030. With 40% of victims withdrawing from justice, we need urgent reform now.

Pleased to see progress on stalking training & new tools to assess risk, but improvements must be judged by implementation, not just intention. Victims still face inconsistent responses - especially for victims of non-DA stalking. I echo @live_life_safe calls for continued action.

My Victim Attrition Review showed that 40% of victims withdraw from justice (69% of rape victims). One thing is clear: the justice system is not working. Leveson's proposals are a significant change, but we can no longer tinker around the edges while the justice system fails.

We just led a round into Magnetic Tax two weeks before the Summer YC Demo Day. Magnetic Tax is computer-use agents for CPA firms to automate taxes. The unlock here is CPAs don’t need to rip out their clunky, but trusted, legacy tax software to use Magnetic.

I welcome this announcement-a change I called for in my London Stalking Review. Stalking Protection Orders can provide early intervention and protection. Now we need urgent measures so these orders can be applied swiftly, whilst a victim waits for justice.

My recent landmark report revealed why so many victims walk away from the justice system. The findings are stark. Reform is urgent. We need Government and criminal justice partners to act on the recommendations — victims deserve a better service.

Disappointed to see a lack of improvement in @CPSUK complaints handling. Most come from victims, yet many still receive poor responses, little investigation, and no remedy. ⁦@hmcpsi⁩ report shows urgent progress is needed ⬇️

Too many victims of sexual offences are re-traumatised by their experiences in court. @Law_Commission's proposed reforms could change this, and safeguard victims' privacy, dignity and rights throughout the justice process. My full statement⬇️
