We are supporting the historic action of IDVAs in Tower Hamlets who face huge cuts and redundancies ✊️ These extraordinary workers and the services they provide are a lifeline for women. After 14 years of Tory cuts, this is horrifying. But the IDVAs will win! #TheyCutWeBleed
🚨 BREAKING: Domestic violence advisers in Tower Hamlets are balloting to strike over significant redundancies. These cuts threaten the critical domestic abuse support services they provide.

Tower Hamlets Solace Women's Aid DV services are facing huge redundancies and cuts. Women in Tower Hamlets face some of the highest levels of domestic homicide, now they will be turned away from life-saving services. Survivors need well funded public services, too!
🚨ANNOUNCEMENT: Tower Hamlets named by the The Times as one of the best places to live in the UK & the best place in East London. I'm proud of our investment in the borough and our excellent services, and that we have made history with groundbreaking support for our community.

If this is what Inspector Chris Excell does to women in public, on camera, in front of his colleagues, what does he do behind closed doors? In police cells? In his home? 🚫
The officer seen in the below video, assaulting a woman by pushing her aggressively to the ground from behind has been identified as inspector Chris Excell. He's based in Lambeth and Southwark and claims to be trained in policing high-risk incidents and large-scale disorder, presumably by shoving over small women.
