Former safeguarding minister Jess Phillips has urged the Supreme Court to overturn a ruling that stopped a domestic abuse survivor suing Sussex Police and the CPS. The woman's address was revealed in court after police failed to mark it confidential, forcing her to move. Judges hear the appeal today and tomorrow. Phillips warns that upholding the ruling would shield police from accountability for their failures.
