Anyone? Anyone?
Couldn't find a thread on this but what she said is absolutely key to helping the Domestic Abuse bill through. Her speech left MPs in tears.

Here’s the link to Hansard for the text of her speech:

hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2019-10-02/debates/C3488538-CFEC-4670-9299-732672E2BE67/DomesticAbuseBill#contribution-3FF9A6B0-4FAD-48ED-99E7-55B31BBB2861

She starts speaking at 3.16. I thought it really came from the heart too.

Very powerful speech. I am moved to tears.

She explained the reality of DV so well. Such a clear illustration that it can happen to any of us Shame the place was almost empty

It was very painful, and the responses were the clearest illustration I have ever seen of modern man's cold indifference to women's suffering.

That is one brave woman, good on her!

GrinitchSpinach · 03/10/2019 01:33

Oh my.

Brave, brave woman. It's clear she's anxious, shifting her weight from foot to foot, but she pushes through with sheer force of will. What a powerful speech. Hope it is shared widely.
