“The more chaotic our times, the deeper is our need to slow down and read fiction. In an age of anger and anxiety, clashing certainties, rising jingoism and populism, the division between “us” and “them” also deepens. The novel, however, dismantles dualities” ❤️ www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m...

FOCUS: “Mistake after mistake after mistake”
What happens when someone calls the police with a rape allegation, but they are met with a series of mistakes from the moment officers arrive until the trial? A Guernseywoman went viral on TikTok last year speaking about her experiences. Daisy Chapple's story shows what can go wrong when someone makes a report of rape to the police. "I knew that I would be making a complaint when all of this was done, regardless of the verdict," she said.

Terence Michael Tremarco (62) had originally been handed 456 hours of community service for nine grave and criminal assaults and one common assault, committed between 1994 and 2000.

Raising age of criminal responsibility “not a good solution” in some cases, says UK minister
Simply raising the age of criminal responsibility is "not a good solution" for complicated and extreme cases involving children, the UK's new Minister with responsibility for the Crown Dependencies has said.  Frederick Ponsonby, Lord Ponsonby of Shulbrede, was in Jersey this week after being appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the UK's Ministry of Justice – a role that includes responsibility for constitutional relationships with the Crown Dependencies.
