And meanwhile, this is why has not proved to be the line in the sand that many of us hoped it would be. Speaking out feels more dangerous now, to many of us, than it did before, because we all saw what happened to Amber Heard.

I mean, you don't see me trying to prosecute or going public about what I went through. And will wealthy, famous men have more resources, ordinary perpetrators pull the same tricks as Depp.

Last year around 10,000 seeking to escape were turned away from alternative housing (inc. refuges);

given what we know about how domestic abuse can be the first sign of women becoming victims of fatal violence, we are (once again) failing women who find themselves in the proximity of & gender based violence.

yet one more area where is exposing the vulnerable to fatal consequences!

This is a textbook case of . You have the initial terrified call by the that's abruptly disconnected. Next, a second call by the victim who attempts to walk back his first call. On that second call, the mother grabs the phone from the reporting child, and attempts to clean up the situation, using mitigating language, and excuses for her husband. Anyone who has been involved in recognizes what's going on here.

Soul shatteringly terrible! Especially when you realise that the group most likely to be affected by this is... Yep... people. 💔

"A further 3,000 were denied places because the shelter “could not meet the needs of the household”, with figures suggesting this was often due to mental health issues, drug and alcohol use or disability."

minimising on & giving only the 'context' that said breaking his wife's nose was a one off incident....

No mention that his wife Charlotte said he beat her many times over many years - effectively silencing a victim of domestic violence.

Why has not sacked Bruce?

Obviously the won't - despite censoring for telling the truth about the using 1930's 's political tactics & rhetoric.

"The apparent victim of domestic abuse appears to be tucking away her abuser into a real-life freezer positioned in front of the mural. Drawings of his legs poke out of the other side.

Thanet council workers hauled away the large, white chest freezer that was central to the artwork"
