Reasons to love Britain #657

A spurned wife stabs another woman for having an affair with her husband. So far, so relatively mundane. But if it was in America, the court case would be full of screaming women.

This court case is in Cambridge, UK. The husband is 58. The wife is 61. The “other woman” (the one who was stabbed) is a 44-year-old Cambridge student. And hadn’t seen the husband for three years, according to her defence. To whit, this delicious quote:

“It is very annoying to be stabbed by someone for having sex with their husband, but it is doubly annoying to be stabbed for not having sex with their husband.”

I somehow doubt you’d get that kind of quote in a similar court case in Harvard or New York…
