Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse

We support women to find their strength, determination and dignity after domestic abuse, domestic violence and coercive control.

[Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse @ResoluteSupport]

@jadeblueLDN Totally agree Jade. But they should also be rewarded appropriately and not exploited 💜💙

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

Nearly 1 in 10 adults experienced domestic abuse in the past year.

These figures are a stark reminder of the scale of this national emergency.

Govt must match its ambition on VAWG with long-term funding for domestic abuse services. ⬇️

We are getting closer and closer to magistrates courts being recorded. This pilot and test is another step forward to transparency and accountability. Thank you @sarahsackman

Intensive Supervision Courts tackle trauma & addiction driving women’s crime
Working well in W Mids & Manchester
Now Labour Government has announced ISCs for Northumbria, Merseyside & W Yorks.
Excellent!
Justice provision specifically for women can work better

[Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse @ResoluteSupport]

@VeraBaird @centreWJ Agree!

[Claire Waxman OBE @voice4victims]

Tagging must manage risk and put victims’ safety first.

If bail conditions or tagging conditions are breached, there must be rapid and meaningful consequences.

A tag is only a safeguard if the system acts when it is breached.

PETITION created by Victoria Ismail, sister of Joanna Lazaris:
https://t.co/a65nrgPjQX

"Require that victims are given a trauma-informed specialist advocate, separate from an IDVA or appropriate adult, who will support them in person when: reporting abuse; getting help from mental health services and; navigating the system ensuring their abuse, risk, trauma and safety are understood.

We are concerned that there is a dangerous gap between reporting abuse and receiving effective protection. Trauma responses and mental health can be used against victims. This new specialist advocate could close this gap via trauma-informed specialist advocacy, mandatory review of original allegations after counter allegations are made & joined up mental health and safeguarding responses."

"This is about creating real change for victims of domestic abuse and coercive control, through mandatory, trauma-informed advocacy. I truly believe that if this requirement comes into force, it could save lives.
Please sign the petition and share it. Every signature and every share brings us one step closer to making this a reality."

Tracey Davies was strangled by her husband in her own bed. He has received a 'life' sentence – with a minimum term of just 14 YEARS. Yet for anyone who commits a murder outside the home, having 'taken the weapon to the scene', the starting tariff is 25 years.

This injustice must end.

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

Govt's early release scheme has caused untold damage to DA victims' confidence in the criminal justice system.

If the PM wants to have difficult conversations about the biggest challenges in our society, criminal justice reform must be high on the agenda.

(2)This may make sense to address prison capacity but it gives 'early' release to those sentenced before the changes, contrary to what their victims were told.
Victims, especially vulnerable Domestic Abuse victims, urgently need the best safety provision & full information.

[Vera Baird DBE KC @VeraBaird]

Part of motion just passed UNANIMOUSLY at Labour Party Conference!! Conference calls for: 'A statutory defence for victims of coercive and controlling behaviour who are compelled to offend by their abuser and a trauma informed approach across the criminal justice system.'

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

Victim confidence in the justice system is at rock bottom. These cases show why abusers should never have been included in the scheme.

The PM must show leadership by strengthening probation and providing long-term funding for specialist services. https://t.co/qWdSxpkZJP

Twenty-six years after Vicky Glass was murdered, her family are still waiting for answers and for justice. Four men have been arrested over the years, but none have been charged, as Cleveland Police continue to investigate her disappearance and death.

What happens when victims of abuse and rape are forced into contact with the person they say abused them?

@Mollie_Malone1 @SkyNews shines a light on the challenges victims face in family courts and how protective parents can be punished for trying to protect their children.

Please watch this report, I have spoken openly for years about the only way to scrutinise the family court system, is to open them up! @SkyNews @voice4victims @SheraFamily @proudmanslaw

And as the judge sentenced the boy with a three-year restraining order for stabbing the girl multiple times (which he called "a very troubling event"), he said that he did not think the boy was a "danger", and that "He's still young. And he is capable of learning".

[Dame Nicole Jacobs @CommissionerDA]

For far too long, victims of DA and the services supporting them have been an afterthought for the govt. That must urgently change.

The PM must show leadership on tackling DA and rebuild trust with people impacted by it. Their safety and wellbeing are too important to overlook.
