West Yorkshire Police campaign against DV

THIS IS NOT WEST YORSKSHIRE POLICE, FFS

This is the Police and Crime Commissioner.
Not a police chief
Not involved in police operations
He's a politician elected by the people of West Yorkshire.
They can vote him out if they think that he's rubbish. .

The street harassment of young women in Bradford when I was there was truly appalling. So many men who made the life if girls who dared to be in public space miserable. Dipshit coppers did nothing

I did used to live there and I did leave. Mainly because I hated it there (sorry Yorkshire people, I know there’s nice bits but come on ...) but the hapless fuckwits of WYP don’t improve matters,

On its own it was appalling.

Yes. A complete bastardisation of what coercive control is. And a fucking gnat's wing from taking us back to the bad old days of the nagging and shagging defence. Not to mention that male pattern abuse often involves leveraging authorities such as the police by making counter and vexatious accusations.

This police force is not fit to protect and serve the women of West Yorkshire.

I don't see a problem with any of the posters.
People on the thread seem angry the poster isn't about murdered women, but then none of the other posters are either, even when the victims are female.
It seems like a lot of people are minimising controlling and non-physical abuse.

I'm happy that this is my local regional force as they're clearly against discriminating against anyone

Except funnily enough they would see nothing wrong with those messages. Not until the person who receives them tweets a photo of them then they go after the victim not the person who sent the messages. And if course really the only thing they care about is whether or not the victim is using the correct pronouns.

I really wish they woukdnt do these posters and campaigns. Its unfair to make those who read them feel for even a second that wyp give a crap. Far more likely you end up with your phone confiscated so cant call for help when the abusive partner comes and beats u to death...

Are police forces going to report themselves for controlling behaviour after dictating what you can and cant think when you post on Twitter?

Not just any police force (though all are guilty), but W Yorks specifically should hand themselves in.

I've not seen any of the other posters, so unaware if it is one of a series.
I do know that I don't care which sex it's coming from, if it's abuse it's abuse.

Anyone else find the "I feel shes watching me even when I'm online " kinda ironic?

Oh I see it is part of a series. On its own it was appalling.

It might just pass muster if it had been one in a series of posters to highlight that coercive behaviour doesn't mean physical abuse and that men can be victims of abuse but on its own it's appalling.

Aren't they the police force with a terrible record of ignoring reports from women who are then subsequently killed by their male partners?

Bloody hell. If I lived in that area I'd leave.

Hey c’mon. She looks in real danger. You’re heartless...
