Baroness Helen Newlove, Victims Commissioner, criticizes the Government's Victims Bill, stating it lacks teeth and isn't worth the paper it's written on. She emphasizes the need to treat victims with dignity and respect. The debate on victims of road traffic offenses and the criminal justice system is led by Selaine Saxby, Co-Chair of @APPGCW. Reform campaigner Baroness Newlove stresses the importance of better support for crime victims, particularly in traumatic situations. Conservative Peer Jess Phillips expresses agreement with Baroness Newlove's criticism of the victims bill.
Helen is a Conservative Peer and a bloody good one at that. We should listen to her. She is not wrong that the victims bill is no where near good enough. https://t.co/EAxxqSiglV
Dr @baronessnewlove says the Government's Victims and Prisoners Bill isn't "worth the paper it's written on". "We've got to make sure that we give as much support and understanding and treat victims with dignity and respect." #PoliticsHub https://t.co/GlTNastFii 📺 Sky 501 https://t.co/JFfU3XRxjw

As Co-Chair of @APPGCW, I led a debate on 'Victims of road traffic offences & the criminal justice system'. It's important to recognise victims of crashes as victims of crimes & I look forward to working cross department on this.@GuyOpperman @adamtranter https://t.co/aFC07UIDvq https://t.co/kXg1w0JL3C
