So when women in the women’s sector say we need to address the fundamental cultural problem we have and street lightening is not going to solve the problem - this - right here - is what we mean.
A man got 5 years for killing his wife because he was “stressed” in lockdown. A man got 18 months for killing his wife because she “burnt the dinner”. A man got 18 months for killing his girlfriend because she “liked rough sex”

The government shortfall in funding means that some women and children experiencing
#domesticabuse
& are at the most vulnerable time of their lives, will be unable to access support when their lives depend upon it. Surely
@RishiSunak
can do better than this.
The £19m announced in
#budget
is not enough. Even with the £165m for next year, these figures are nowhere near the £393m needed to keep

refuges & community-based services running.

Very pleased to have donated to
@rednoseday2021
at my kid’s school today! She gets to wear red, the funds go to a great set of causes, including
#DomesticAbuse
and I have one less uniform to process. Great wins all round in an otherwise troubled week...

No words...I can barely watch this. Another brave dignified interview from another mother who has lost her child and has to deal with institutional racism admist her grief. Heart goes out Richard Okorogheye’s family. When will the

“I want to embrace him and tell him how much I love him.”
Evidence Joel, the mother of missing student Richard Okorogheye, tells

she has been overwhelmed by the support from the public, as she appeals for her son to come home.

The G7 meets. We wonder (or we don’t) why in the global context, Women’s Rights are on the decline. Yes, it’s not a straightforward equation nonetheless see below.

Wishing everyone a lovely
#valentinesday2021
and a reminder from
@womensaid
that love is much more than flowers and chocolates which can never, and should never mask abuse... Love is trust, kindness and respect in the everyday-and that is worth celebrating everyday 🤎
On
#ValentinesDay
, abusive partners may 'love bomb' a partner with excessive displays of gifts and affection, and may even appear as the ideal partner.
But love is more than just flowers and chocolates.

That a brilliant specialist service as
@riseuk
is facing substantive cuts to core services for victim-survivors of domestic abuse is shocking & unacceptable. The impact will be devastating & life saving services left unsustainable. This cannot continue.
@risejogo
we are with you.
Thanks to
@itvmeridian
for interviewing me and a survivor today regarding the

cuts

Standing in solidarity with women and girls in Afghanistan, and with those organisations working to support them.

Our thoughts go to the women in Afghanistan who face extreme control & whose future is under threat, and for survivors of Afghan heritage during this painful time.

Not the finest reflection on our society if the government de facto consigns a woman to danger, abuse, harm and suffering because of her immigration status. I can’t think of anyone who thinks that reflects our society’s values. Government needs to show moral leadership here. 👇🏽
“If you call the police or seek space in a refuge, we have a two-tier system; one for migrant women and one for non-migrant women. If the Bill fails to include these amendments, it will institutionalise this system”
