Charity providing support for survivors who have experienced any form of rape and/or sexual abuse at any time.

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

A Channel 4 News investigation has revealed how a serial rapist - who had already attacked a police officer - went on to assault multiple members of the public.  Hampshire Constabulary missed chances top stop Bruno Sala after telling PC Victoria Tomkins she could be lying when she reported the rape.

Hampshire Constabulary is now facing calls to refer itself to the police watchdog.

And a warning, this exclusive report contains references to distressing themes.

Did you know HOMICIDE is the leading cause of death for PREGNANT WOMEN? Their current or ex male partner, the man who is supposed to love and care for them, chooses to murder them and the baby. That’s why PREGNANCY is a high risk factor for serious harm and femicide. Let that sink in 💀💣🚩

Our courts are buckling under the strain. Rape victims wait for years for justice (which less than 2% of them get).

And yet, CPS and police zealously go after women w miscarriages and victims of coercive control (who've already asked for their help).

It's not just boys. After all, they get it from somewhere, and that's not just the internet.

Too many adult police officers, social workers, barristers, solicitors and judges also believe women are responsible for the sexual violence they endure.

[Dr. Ann Olivarius @AnnOlivarius]

"Sex with underage girls" is rape.

Because children can't consent to sex.

"Underage sex" = adult raping a child.

It's not a difficult concept to grasp, so why do these headlines persist?

BREAKING: Over half of allegations against MasterChef presenter Greg Wallace substantiated, including one of unwanted physical contact https://t.co/0jHCO18PVv

[Centre for Women's Justice @centreWJ]

At least 57% of women in prison & under community supervision are victims of domestic abuse.

Research by us & others shows, for many of these women, their offending or alleged offending results from their experience of abuse

Misogyny kills. A perpetrator was radicalised online and believed he was legally justified in killing.

I ask again, do we care about male violence against women? Chloe was leaving him so he attacked her. Life changing injuries. He’s eligible for early release after just seven months according to this news report

"The major win for us is that [when women are] subjected to a non-fatal or a fatal assault during sex, there will be a much better response from the criminal justice system"

It’s never ok to target women with leering stares, uninvited sexual attention and intimidating remarks at any time.

It’s abusive and it’s sexual harassment.

Finally.

Former Arsenal footballer Thomas Partey has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.

This biggest open secret in football. An investigation which started in February 2022, after police first received a report of rape.

'A majority of women have direct experience of violence or harassment, or know someone who has suffered it, in the last year, a poll has found.

'The poll finds little faith in the police or government to stem the tide of male violence.'

There is no "mystery" here, just money.

Platforms, theme parks, talent agencies and venues all profited from this man.

Google "somehow" allowed his content to be up and despite his lack of profile or success, to get 12 million followers.

People make judgements based on their own experiences and frame of reference. It makes you wonder how little justice has been serving the family court, if the judge is abusive. I despair.

[Louise Tickle @louisetickle]

A family judge found to have abused their adopted children applied to the high court for anonymity - and has been granted it, despite the media arguing to name them. My @ObserverUK comment piece on a scandal; first, the child abuse, then the cover up: https://t.co/3WYMIjf45v
