‘Rape accused would have to prove consent under Labour plan
The Labour Party’s plan to reform the criminal justice system would mean that the accused in a rape case would have to prove consent to be found innocent — a change it acknowledges as a monumental shift…’
A “monumental shift” for half the population only. For the female half, it’s Christmas. Some slag cheating on her boyfriend? Why, it wasn’t her fault, it was rape. Buyer’s remorse the morning after a drunken encounter? It was rape. Boyfriend leaves her after a row? He left after raping her. Woman wants to get rid of an inconvenient husband and gain custody of the kids, house, car and bank balance? He raped her.
And in every case, the man would have to prove otherwise, a clear impossibility in almost all cases. How does one go about proving consent? Tape recorder? Video the encounter? Only do it in front of three impartial witnesses?
This is a charter for vindictive women to wage war on men, with the connivance of politicians and the courts. The presumption of innocence is the cornerstone of justice. Throw that away under the pretext of “special circumstances” and the instant that happens, there is no justice at all, merely show trials.
and women wonder why men are “commitment phobic”……….
……and that’s why I suggest to all those not in a committed monogamous relationship to rent and not buy.
OTOH it gives free rein to those guys who (illegally) record it all on an iPhone.
Happens here all the time,vindictive prosecution is one term for it.The story of Brian Banks is just one example-

Thank goodness Labour have little chance of winning the election.
Are they mad or what? Utter Marxists, for sure.
No Lara, the Labour Party leadership – like all good Communist, Fascist and Progressive parties all over the world – are psychopaths, who are subhumans who cannot love and have no conscience; they view people like a wolf sees sheep, a source of red meat.
The psychopath-wolf is after one thing – the domination of his respective flock of sheep. These hideous creatures cannot be reasoned with and will never see “the light.” They can only be destroyed on sight.
The sheeple of the world are in luck, because every nation produces her share of sheepdogs, who will at the command, attack and kill the big bad wolf.
The wolf with his yellow eyes looks down at the sheep in the pasture below…but will not attack because he observes the clear blue eyes of the sheepdog that will go for his throat should he attack the sheep.

Hey Politician: Prove you’re not a traitor. The noose awaits your failure to comply.
It easy for the Labour men as they don’t think their gay lovers would ever allege rape.
In England we have already lost “habeas corpus”. The EAW allows anyone, anywhere in Europe to accuse anyone in England of anything. Our English police, courts and Government are obliged to comply. General Augustus Pinochet springs to mind. Our treatment of that twentieth century hero sickens me still. The powers that be only need fear to cow us, habeas corpus was intended to remove fear. That probably means that they fear us. Think chest beating gorillas vying for mastery of the harem. Are we humans still so fucking primitive? Are we really any better than the Koran wielding sand dwellers?
Germany 5, Brazil 0. That’s what’s happening right now. Any unusual betting patterns in Malaysia?

“Are we humans still so fucking primitive?”
In some ways, yes. Robert Ardrey described Man as the “killer ape” and he was right. Evolution and genes will not be denied, despite all attempts to do so.
“Are we really any better than the Koran wielding sand dwellers? ”
Yes. Yes, we are, in lots of ways. We suppress the killer ape in the interests of a civilized society and only allow him to surface when needed to defend ourselves. And we treat our women and children with respect and consideration.
