RHWACA @ The Crown Prosecution Service Protest

Last year it was revealed that the government had plans to cut the budget of the Crown Prosecution service by 25% The Law Society president Linda Lee said "The ultimate losers from these plans for the CPS to slash its budget are the vulnerable clients in need of help dealing with housing, mental health and domestic violence. Access to justice is at risk from these kinds of reforms."

Slut means speak up along with other women's organisations protested outside the 
Crown Prosecution service to speak up about the poor service that many victims of rape, sexual abuse and domestic violence have received from CPS. The CPS doesn't need any more corners cut, it is a vital service that desperately needs to be running efficiently to provide the legal aid needed.
