Keir Starmer reads out shocking list of rapists sentenced for less than 10 years

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has read out a shocking list of rapists sentenced for less than 10 years as he called for greater protection for women and girls in the wake of the Sarah Everard case.

Speaking at Prime Minister’s Questions (PMQs) on Wednesday, Starmer said MPs need to “face up” to sentences for rape and sexual violence – “because they need to be toughened”.
