August 16, 2014 at 9:22 amThank you, Ma’am, I remain your faithful follower.
August 16, 2014 at 11:44 amThey really were worth reading. Especially ExInjuria.
August 16, 2014 at 5:25 pm@Joe Public I agree the Exinjuria piece was excellent –a long time back Anna postulated the Common Law was not the forum to address issues of historic child abuse —a view I disagreed with at the time but which I am now coming around to
August 16, 2014 at 12:00 pmThank you Anna. It *may* just be that not all of the lunatics have taken over the asylum.
August 16, 2014 at 3:52 pmStill loving your posts, they often make my day.
August 16, 2014 at 4:22 pmAnna On Newsnight on BBC2 last night (Friday) Ann Widdecombe spoke on the topic, that men accused of sexual crimes, recent or historical, should be allowed anonymity until charged, the woman who spoke to oppose this view, identified as a victim of rape in the 1980’s, had views on men which have to be heard to be believed. She would appear to believe that men are a less emotionally developed varient of the human species than women, it is her belief that men falsely accused of such crimes are “not bothered much by it” as “they go back to work”. Ann Widdecombe looked truely shocked but was not allowed time to reply. It is an interview worth a look while it is on BBC iplayer.

“Oh you know, they tend to cope quite well with the odd bit of racial harassment. They just don’t feel it, like we would.”
