Letter to Boris Johnson

Survivor Esme Johnson recently published an open letter on Twitter in response to comments made by Boris Johnson about investigations into historic cases of child sexual abuse.


Rape Crisis Scotland is grateful for her permission to reproduce here a slightly abridged version of her powerful message.
