The prime minister says rape trials should “not leave the woman feeling like she is on trial in court”.
He tells Times Radio’s Anna Mikhailova he will look at changing the law.
“We need to get the conviction rate up. It has improved, but not enough.”

A US military source says: "Hegseth's days are numbered". There are differing views on why - some believe he will face inevitable impeachment by the Democrats, others believe Trump will sack him as the fall guy for the disastrous Iran war.
Either way, he has already alienated significant parts of the US military.
One senior military officer, not authorised to speak on the record, tells @thetimes: "Personally, after decades of service and five combat deployments I’m just tired of being called ‘woke’ by a secretary who seems to spend more time worrying about NCO business than actually making serious policy decisions."
So “mogging” is the @CollinsDict word of the year. Here’s how @Jacob_Rees_Mogg responded on @TimesRadio:
“Since Moggna Carta, it is hard to think of any more moggnificent news. Moggs of England rejoice and expect the transmoggrification of the whole of the English language.”
BREAKING NEWS The Collins Word of the Year is… mogging.
Although the word has been around since the 2010s, it has now been firmly adopted by Gen Z and Gen Alpha in a playful and ironic way when someone is upstaged.

The imminent departure of James Kirtley from Sussex is another massive tear out of the fabric of the club.
It’s becoming increasingly hard to remain optimistic about the next chapter, but here’s hoping…🤞

Good old @Se_Railway always knows how to help you end the week on a high. Thanks guys.
How reassuring when the co-author of the defence review, Gen Sir Richard Barrons tells @KateEMcCann & @StigAbell on @TimesRadio he keeps a stock of water, tinned food, batteries etc… because he “accepts” assuming food, water and power will always be there “is a risk”?
