Unacceptable "Norm"

MP Jess Phillips reads the names of UK women killed by men in the last year - BBC > .

Labour MP Jess Phillips listed all women killed in the UK over the last year where a man has been convicted or charged, in a debate to mark International Women's Day. She told Parliament that “killed women are not vanishingly rare, killed women are common”. The Birmingham Yardley MP was given dispensation by the deputy Speaker to break time limits to read the list of victims. She ended with the name of Sarah Everard, who disappeared a week ago, for which a serving male police officer is being questioned on suspicion of murder.

[Men killed by women in incidents of domestic violence? Probably zero.]

[Unsurprisingly, comments have been turned off and the video has been excessively down-thumbed (presumably) by males triggered by the temerity of an MP daring to list the 118 women (plus some of their children) killed by a dangerous subset of males.]

Jess Phillips: Society has 'just accepted' dead women:

Labour's shadow domestic violence minister, Jess Phillips, has said society has "just accepted" dead women as "one of those things". She read out the names of 118 women and girls killed in the UK this year, where a man has been charged or convicted as the primary perpetrator, in an International Women's Day debate. Ms Phillips said there was currently no government research into the data. Ministers say they have prioritised support for victims during lockdown.
