A braid was held up as a trophy. The humiliation was the point, and the camera was part of the weapon. This is dishonour abuse: public degradation used to police women through fear. The Kurdish braid protest matters because it reverses the message, refusing to carry shame on the victim’s behalf. aneeta.com/blog/kurdish-b… #HumanRights #Safeguarding @FreedomCharity

"#VAWGStrategy2025 will not be judged by the launch. It will be judged by the first response: the first call, the first log, the first risk decision, the first consequence." @ANEETAPREM @FreedomCharity There is no honour in abuse. We call it Dishonour Abuse, because language drives action. Read: freedomcharity.org.uk/home/news-and-… #VAWG #VAWGStrategy2025 #Safeguarding #ForcedMarriage #FGM #DishonourAbuse @GreenJennyJones

@ANEETAPREM Thank you @GreenJennyJones for your support and making it so clear how important using the right language dishonour abuse is the correct term

Thank you, Baroness Jones, of Moulsecoomb, in the House of Lords last night: “This has nothing to do with honour. This is dishonour, and that is what we should call it.” She referenced @FreedomCharity: “There is no honour in abuse.” freedomcharity.org.uk/dishonour-abus… @GreenJennyJones #DishonourAbuse #FreedomCharity #VAWG #Safeguarding #HouseOfLords #Hansard @ANEETAPREM

I was live on @LBC tonight. First cousin marriage often leads to #ForcedMarriage and #DisHonour abuse. It’s not cultural—it’s coercive. It puts children at serious genetic risk. I’m calling for a change in the law to ban first cousin marriage in the UK. — @AneetaPrem @FreedomCharity #LBC #first #cousin-marriage #GeneticRisk #Safeguarding #ChildProtection #EndForcedMarriage #LawReform
