Pregnant women prisoners in England are being handcuffed to prison officers — often male — during intimate vaginal examinations and long, agonising births. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/mar/04/the-scandal-of-women-handcuffed-while-in-labour-i-was-so-shocked-when-the-restraints-werent-removed
There was a huge storm about this in 1996, when #AnnWiddecombe was Prisons Minister. But 30 years later, the #UKgov has still not stopped this abuse.

Don't eat the cheese!
Eat … something else … instead.
Eat what you can afford.
In my family, i'ts roast beef.
But you can't afford that, I'm afraid.
And no one has a right to afrordable food.
Find something else to eat.
