ā€˜Parental alienation’ has so often been shown to be used by controlling men as punishment against ex wives in custody disputes. Despite repeated warnings by lawyers’ and women’s (DV) groups, courts continue to look the other way: theguardian.com/law/2022/dec… @louisetickle

ā€œWoman killed by ex feared losing access to child after reporting abuse, inquest toldā€ - domestic abuse victims are understandably terrified their children will be taken from them, rather than confident they’ll be supported to live safely. theguardian.com/society/2022…

#HeadlinesWeAreMissing This should be headline news. Today’s CPS stats show convictions for domestic abuse are down by 45% over the last 6 years. There were fewer #DomesticAbuse convictions in the last quarter than at the peak of covid, when most courts were closed. @RuthKDavison

This is the story I’ve been fighting to publish for a year and 7 days - the story of a powerful man, an MP, a minister of state, who abused & raped his wife while in office… today, with incredible support from @tortoise, and @familoo as barrister, I won. tortoisemedia.com/2021/12/10…

My god.
Today the CPS have published their latest figures on domestic abuse. Sadly the outcomes continue to be distressing and unacceptable. Comparing year ending June 2022 to year ending June 2016, prosecutions are down 48% and convictions are down 46.8%. This cannot continue.

In response to @borisjohnson’s announcement, I’m calling on govt to enact emergency measures to protect women & children trapped in abusive homes: police powers to evict perpetrators from homes for duration of #lockdown, via DVPOs including waiving court fees for them.
