Clare’s Law

I’ve been on a few dates with a guy I met online. We talk most days, get on very well. My exh was emotionally and physically abusive so my friend suggested, err on the side of caution and carry out a Clare’s law check. I had no qualms about how he’d presented himself, comes across as kind, caring, considerate etc
However, the police have disclosed a long long history of abuse and have summarised that any woman in a relationship with him would be in danger and any child in contact with him would be at risk too.
So I obviously need to pull the plug on this, however, the police have advised I don’t let on that I know what I know. I really want to confront him with it, tell him I’m calling time because of what I know. I don’t want to fade quietly into the distance so as to not upset the big bad man. I’m sick of being lied to, used and abused. I’m so fed up of being taken for a mug and a victim.
The sensible me knows that would potentially be a very bad idea

How do I do it?

I agree bubble ,my ex mentioned it straight away, he told me a ex had accused him of hitting her and that she had an injunction against him, he told me she had lied and he would never touch a woman. I have been on a few dates since and alarm bells ring if they mention ‘never laying a finger on a woman’, why mention it?
