Thank you to @DawnButlerBrent for highlighting the urgent need for greater funding for specialist domestic abuse services in yesterday's @HouseofCommons debate ahead of International Women's Day on March 8th #DomesticAbuse #IWD
I collected the names of women for @CountDeadWomen for 11 years from 2012-2022. The research team from @FemicideCensus has done so for the last 2 years. If you think this is important so that @jessphillips can read those names in Parliament, please donate to support our work https://t.co/HFJRzgpZZ4

Thank you @jessphillips for reading the names of women killed by male suspects in the last year. There are still far too many. We need to see urgent action from leaders across government and all public agencies to tackle violence against women & girls and prevent future deaths. https://t.co/kc2JaSxFVo
.@jessphillips today, reading out the names of women killed by men in the UK over the last year: “I am tired of sticking plasters” “I am tired that women’s safety matters so much less in this place than small boats” “This list ... is a testament to our collective failure” https://t.co/qKOrSrrFhp
A privilege to be in the public gallery at Parliament today with @clarriecensus and friends and families of women killed by men to hear @jessphillips read out @countdeadwomen’s list of names of women killed by men since last year’s international women’s day.
We dearly look forward to a year when reciting the names of women lost to male violence does not take minutes; better yet, isn’t needed at all. Thank you to @jessphillips for once again stressing these are our sisters, not statistics. Systemic change is needed indeed #IWDdebate https://t.co/YJ5HinRU7x
