'Prosecutions, and convictions, for rape

as some of us would regard the falling rate of domestic abuse as a good

By MRA-UK: I’m inspired to write this post because I have, for some time, been
awaiting publication of research by Professor Cheryl Thomas of UCL on
rape trial juries and associated matters. I find it has been published –
back in November 2020 – but not for us plebs as yet.
To avoid burdening the thrust of this post with the rape statistics
themselves, I relegate a review of them to the Appendix, below.
The salient point is that prosecutions, and convictions, for rape
have been falling. Some people might regard this as a good thing – just
as some of us would regard the falling rate of domestic abuse as a good
thing. But not the feminists, who require more prosecutions – far more –
and all those prosecuted must be convicted: to be accused is to be
guilty.
