Home Secretary Theresa May is consulting on creating a new office to cover domestic abuse.

Currently, laws cover coercive and controlling behaviour, but do not specifically apply to relationships.

Ms May is consulting on creating the offence in England and Wales as part of attempts to improve police performance.

Speaking about the consultation, she said: “The government is clear that abuse is not just physical. Victims who are subjected to a living hell by their partners must have the confidence to come forward. I want perpetrators to be in no doubt that their cruel and controlling behaviour is criminal.

“We will look at the results of this consultation carefully in order to continue providing the best possible protection and support for victims of domestic abuse.”

Jo Harvey Barringer, interim Managing Director of domestic violence charity Broken Rainbow UK, said: “Broken Rainbow UK welcomes the proposed new crime of domestic abuse, implemented correctly the new crime would provide clarity – giving victims the confidence to seek support, ensuring perpetrators understand their behaviour is criminal, and reduce ambiguity for police so they respond effectively.
“It is vital that implementation, including training for the police, recognises that domestic abuse is a crime that does not discriminate as the 4,000+ calls our helpline receives from LGBT people each year demonstrates.”

She continued: “Over the past 10 years Broken Rainbow has received more than 25,000 calls from members of the LGBT community in distress, with the number of calls continuing to have an upward trend.”

Comment - We have gone out of our way to go and save the alarming situation of our son being dragged in Hell by his English Girlfriend, all those who knew the situation, council and Police, social workers.

Since coming to live in the Family House her attitude, more superior, racist issues some polite thread we/I have addressed.

Her efforts to take over those form the Seychelles, Mauritius and other communities who know their practice.

Of late the use and because of that infernal satanic rage to bully, intimidate and threaten - this is not right and she is supposed to be caring for young children at  a school.

The neighbours involved in spurring her on creating trouble and winding  he and us up.

On her par the abuse of that infernal system to grass, spy, stalk and informer everybody passer by our doing and life -

Those politicians, media and Police Authorities who know and aware of the use and abuse.

We ask those form the Seychelles , Mauritius and other communities half same to monitor and watch out situation.
