So I was looking at who I could vote for and I liked this when I stumbled on their website.
To protect pets and people of a nervous disposition we would introduce silent fireworks
They get my vote.

What is she asking to be done or change though? Not sure I agree with labelling it as "femicide". 30 men also die from domestic abuse each year and 1 in 6 men will experience it in their lifetime compared to 1 in 4 women. Needs to be tackled as a whole, not just for women.

Needs to be tackled as a whole, not just for women. Absolutely. Domestic abuse is a terrible issue. Something i deal with daily in my job and I have obtained perhaps hundreds of injunctions for victims and acted for them in fact finding hearings on so many occasions. At the more serious end it is almost always male perpetrators on women. Jess Phillips has been a brilliant MP in working to get the Domestic Abuse Bill through, including criminalising coercive and controlling behaviour, prohibits perpetrators from cross examining victims, strangulation and rough sex is no longer a defence to murder, criminalises revenge porn, there are other important changes. Jess Phillips made it happen.

Jess Phillips made it happen. That can't be right mate. I have it on good authority from many a voter that politicians are all the same so it doesn't matter which ones you vote for. Usually the ones who say that happen to just vote Tory when it does come to it.

Hopefully she continues her good work when Labour are in power.

Home Office news dump day:
Police vetting deemed not fit for purpose to allow Sarah Everard’s killer into the met. The Home Office are basically doing nothing very slowly to address it. They have finally released 13 withheld reports on our borders to try and hide damning information The PM thinks mob rules runs Britain, and laughably not him! Wait until he hears who has been in power for the last 14 years! 45,768 asylum seekers live in hotels 2% of small boat arrivals since 2018 have been deported There’s been a 44 percent drop in removals of failed asylum seekers, a 27 percent drop in removals of foreign national offenders and a 22 percent drop in total immigration removals since 2010 Almost 20000 asylum seekers have disappeared Almost 4000 claims remain in the legacy backlog the government supposedly cleared at the end of 2023 A further 15 Rwandans have been granted asylum in Britain because Rwanda is unsafe for them.
What a shambles

I was wondering whether he would rattle Starmer but you're right, he's actually shook the whole establishment. It was a truly bizarre speech from Sunak.

Braverman, Jenrick, Anderson, Scully all making the most inflammatory comments in the last 10 days alone. I think the culture wars, we were warned of leading upto the election have well and truly begun.

I know you (and many others on here) do not like Starmer at all, but this type of thing is where the main two parties really differ. The tories are ALL about culture wars.
