I would not be surprised if flogging will be re-introduced into britian as a punishment for sex offences in the next 50 years. there is an intuitive appeal to judicial corporal punishment for rape. no matter how good your job prospects are or social status, your body will be subject to the same pain
It's vanishingly small how many get to court at all, let alone get convictions. It's effectively accepted as being fine by the legal system and we often see the legal system prioritise promising careers of men over justice. It's a disgrace. It's despicable.

there's a typically effective singaporean solution to this: the criminal law temporary provisions act. the act gives the home minister power to detain anyone *suspected* of a crime for one year. Crucially, there are no limits to the number of times this can be renewed. as such...
The proportion of rapes that lead to convictions is vanishingly small. That the criminal justice system does so little to deter this horrific crime is a national disgrace. So we really can do without headlines like this. 👇🏻

Larkin’s “This Be the Verse” got a outing in Lord Justice Wall’s judgment in Re R [2009] EWCA Civ 358.

![124] I resile from nothing which I said in Re L. In the present case,
however, I propose to express myself in similar terms, but more forcefully. I
do so because, in my judgment, the damage in the present case has gone well
beyond that foreseen in Re L. Indeed, as I read the papers in the instant appeal,
and, in particular, the report and the oral evidence of Professor Zeitlin, and
listened to the careful arguments addressed to us, I was powerfully reminded
of the first four lines of Philip Larkin’s poem This be the Verse:
‘They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.’
[125] The rest of the poem seems to me to say more about Philip Larkin
himself than it does about the human condition, but these four lines seem to
me to give a clear warning to parents who, post separation, continue to fight
the battles of the past, and show each other no respect](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:drwvh7wngwjgf5qv6vhppp5a/bafkreihp564pzoufiipyikozkjeaamd65buoxzugl4jhyt7apommr7k6ve@jpeg)

Sometimes you do wonder if more terms should be left to the courts to define, in case of dispute, without the intervention of Parliament.
Entertaining myself with the definition of 'pet' being inserted by the Renters Rights Act 2025.
Probably should add:
'(e) Fear of retribution from the animal if otherwise'
to cover most cats

iirc Robert van Gulik noted that in Chinese culture- and sex manuals- kissing was considered a sexual act, only to be done in private.
This led europeans to conclude the Chinese never kissed, and the Chinese to conclude all European women were prostitutes.

In 1666, Pope Alexander VII affirmed that it is a mortal sin to kiss someone "for reason of the carnal and sensual pleasure which arises from the kiss".
