It is a great privilege to be leading the Government’s much needed review into pornography legislation. The online world is totally out of step with the offline world in this area and this needs to be addressed urgently. The Call for Evidence opens today. gov.uk/government/cal…

Extreme porn is spreading and the law isn’t keeping up. Please see my Times article below 👇 thetimes.co.uk/article/db521b…

Thank you Baroness Chakrabarti and Gabby Bertin for powerful interventions on why we need judicial discretion for the release of rape survivors' counselling records. How many more victims are forced to choose between therapy or justice before Govt decides to act? #VictimsBill

I worked closely with Estelle Morris on the Lords Public Services Committee - which she chairs. Such a decent woman with so much talent. EstelleMorris Matt Chorley

Great hearing Gabby Bertin on BBC Woman's Hour talking about our #KeepCounsellingConfidential campaign win! We hope this much-needed change in law will better protect survivors' counselling notes, raising the legal threshold for when survivors’ notes can be requested by the police.

Thank you BBC Woman's Hour for having me on. And thank you to the formidable Rape Crisis England & Wales Centre for Women's Justice EVAW Coalition Rights of Women for their year long campaign to keep rape counselling notes confidential. We did it 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 Credit also to Ministry of Justice and Alex Chalk KC

An important change was announced today by Ministry of Justice - victims' counselling notes will now be better protected during criminal investigations. Thanks to EVAW Coalition Rights of Women @rapecrisiseandw and Gabby Bertin for your tireless work to make this a reality.

Thank you for having me and the team. A brilliant visit and so much we can work together on Internet Watch Foundation (IWF)

A fantastic appointment. Not many people understand VAWG better and the tireless work she has done to highlight this issue has been transformational. We sit on different sides politically but I look forward to working with you to continue the fight.

Congratulations Jess! We sit on different sides politically. But you are going to be an excellent MP and bring so much experience from your work on domestic abuse SafeLives and then at Barnardo’s. I look forward to working with you on the issues we both care passionately about

A great appointment. We may sit on different sides politically but your passion for helping victim-survivors is loud and clear. Looking forward to working with you 🙌🏻

I am absolutely delighted that the government has announced they will criminalise depiction of strangulation and suffocation in porn. This was one of my review’s major recommendations. Many more to go but a very good start. 🙌🏻👊🏻Jess Asato MP Ministry of Justice EVAW Coalition CEASE UK
