Those convicted in our courts of sexual offences against women and children are having their online records wiped away following requests to Google under EU privacy law. It is completely unacceptable, for the sake of the victims who have had to live with the consequences of those perpetrators' actions and any potential future victims, that court reports are being wiped away online. Those convicted of sexual offences should lose the right to be forgotten permanently.
