Thanks to @Channel4News for having me on, and for covering the issues raised in these cases. In my view the treatment of these women is both an examples and symptom of wider problems with our justice system and with our values. channel4.com/news/sarah-eve… via @fatimamanji

Simon Creighton: “This judgment confirms the principle, from 1908, that there’s a difference in culpability for crimes committed by children & adults. Also that children shouldn’t be subject to arbitrary detention for periods longer than necessary to promote their rehabilitation”

@HarrietEJohnson @LawScribes the judges reserved their detailed judgment but gave a short extempore ruling yesterday summarising their decision. No date when the full judgment will be made available but I suspect, likely to be within 7 days.
