The scourge of #police offenders. #domesticabusers #stalkers - mostly #expartners close ranks on victims. This is a national nightmare with #DA #stalking #rape charities bound by GDPR & #safeguarding supporting the female victims. @Channel4News @BBCNews

@BBCNews @BBCBreaking @BBCWorld just watched your interview with the train stabbing victim with injuries to head/hands. He’s completely #traumatised. Not sure whether you offered PTSD counselling but he shouldn’t have been interviewed so soon. #trainstabbing

📣 After years of pushing for this, Govt has finally announced the repeal of the presumption of contact - a huge win for child safety. This is a vital step towards ending the “pro-contact at all costs” culture in family courts and putting child welfare first. My statement ⬇️

Diana Parkes CBE and Hetti Barkworth-Nanton CBE, who are co-founders of the Joanna Simpson Foundation, said: "For far too long, victims have had to reshape their lives to avoid their offenders. Exclusion zones have made victims feel trapped as though they are the ones serving a sentence, with the victim carrying the weight of someone else’s crime. "This announcement from the Ministry of Justice is the much-needed change that has long been called for and is a powerful step forward. By placing restrictions on offenders instead, this will now give survivors the freedom they deserve to live, move and heal without fear. It will also be more cost-effective for those monitoring the perpetuators as they will be locked in specific areas rather than having to monitor the exclusion zones where the victims live."

Victims of #stalking & intimate partner #domesticabuse are getting younger. Elianne was only 15 when murdered by her ex. Funding needs to be given to #stalking charities so we can work with under 16s to prevent #femicide & #VAWG. Our hearts go out to her friends & family.

My recent landmark report revealed why so many victims walk away from the justice system. The findings are stark. Reform is urgent. We need Government and criminal justice partners to act on the recommendations — victims deserve a better service. london.gov.uk/programmes-str…

@Jet2tweeto hi - we’re a family of 4 in Parga with you. Our son is next to the bedroom that had 1000s of bedbugs… he’s now been bitten as well. We only have 2 nights left but need to sort this out & appreciate a call. Opposite Alea on the hill.

Sadly another #femicide - wild guess that there was #domesticabuse & or #separation #stalking. Horrific. ⁦@HollieGazzardT⁩ ⁦@paladinservice⁩ ⁦@TalkingStalking⁩ ⁦⁦@SeeingStalking⁩ bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

"Rape victims can now challenge CPS if criminal cases are being dropped. Jade Blue has won her campaign for greater rights for victims." This win was collective. Survivors, advocates, a number of stakeholders - real change, together. Forever thankful. standard.co.uk/news/crime/rap…

Echo that. Thinking about the affected families. Some closer to home than others - the devastation it brought. #homicide #bereaved #RIP 🖤

Murder arrest as mum and three children die in fire. Hoping this isn’t a #domesticabuse or #stalking multiple #homicide. Thinking about the family, friends & victims. #RIP. 🖤 bbc.com/news/articles/…

My mother killed my father. The justice system saw a murder. I saw years of abuse and stood by her to lead a campaign that freed her from prison. Now I’ve written the book about what that took. And what it cost. 🧍🏼👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻🧍🏼‍♂️🏠 Out 5 June Pre-order here ➡️ hachette.co.uk/titles/david-c…

Today marks the start of #NSAW2025. This year we’re focusing on how stalking services can work with the healthcare sector to recognise victims of stalking and help them access support - whether they are patients or members of staff. Read our report at 👉shorturl.at/uHdKh
