Jess Phillips: We must sort the systems that are failing
Safeguarding Minister Jess Phillips says 'Raneem's law' scheme will “sort the systems we have now that are currently failing” as the initial phase is rolled out.
The new law is named in memory of Raneem Oudeh who was killed by her ex-husband that she had reported to the police at least seven times.
