The Labour MP Austin Mitchell has refused to apologise for likening the US pharmaceutical giant Pfizer to "rapists" over its controversial takeover of AstraZeneca.
"Miniskirts don't cause rape, rapists do," said Eileen Maitland of the campaign group.
When you talk about rape, I said, you get to decide where you aim: are you making fun of rapists?
Why did bishops, who were not monsters and who presumably believed themselves to be exemplars of goodness, choose to send child rapists out into parishes rather than bring the institution into disrepute?
It will, of course, never be known if any among our number in the common room were potential rapists who have now been deterred.
"Thoroughly offensive tweet about rapists and USA," she wrote.
Speaking to the Guardian, Mitchell said he "should have used the word rapaciousness" instead of "rapists" but declined to apologise.
When it was revealed that the gang rapists of a 16-year-old girl in a small Kenyan town were sentenced to cut the grass around their local police station as a punishment, outrage about the case led to two million people backing a Twitter campaign #justiceforliz – using the pseudonym given to the girl by the journalists who first reported on the rape.
As well as representing Ai, Pu has worked on a number of high-profile cases, recently, including a Tibetan environmentalist and woman who was sent to a labour camp for protesting against light sentences handed down to her daughter's rapists.
He wrote about guilt and sin, raged about indignities and poked back at the hypocrisy of the prisoner's dubious ethical code ("I have seen sex offenders attacked. Almost always they're the weaker ones. I've seen big, muscular and capable rapists walk the landings with impunity").
