Very proud today to present my Ten Minute Rule Bill: Interpersonal abuse and violence against men and boys (strategy).
This strategy is desperately needed as male survivors of domestic abuse, rape, sexual assault, digital image abuse, honour-based violence and forced marriage are currently an afterthought, incredibly, included within the Violence Against Women and Girls strategy.
We urgently need a dedicated strategy for men and boys, and in lieu of a new position statement from the Government, legislates for @jessphillips to ensure that alongside the forthcoming new Violence Against Women and Girls strategy a separate strategy for men and boys is finally introduced.
My thanks to @ThisIsSurvivors , @MBCoalition and @ManKindInit for their advocating for such a step.
