Be Baroness Longfield never so righteous, can they really not see how bad this looks? Her motives may be as pure as the driven snow. But this Government is full of, and surrounded by, utterly cynical and ruthless operators who understand the importance of perception. Yet it does something like this. Still, good luck to her. She is going to need it.
No matter what the Longfield Report ended up saying, you are reading here first, as you so often do, that the Government's response to it will be to propose yet further restrictions of trial by jury, and other such erosions of the presumption of innocence, accompanied by digital ID.
