What is much better is that we recognise that we are not going to agree on the past. None of us in the Chamber will agree on the assessment of the past. We have different narratives and lived experiences, and do you know what? That is also OK. Our job is to heal the wounds of the past and look towards the future. The question is about ending the violence against women and girls that is a problem across our society, and I will not be found wanting in playing my part in that.
