Outcomes
Sarah Everard’s tragic death has focussed minds on the safety of women and girls on the streets. Sadly, as a close friend Helena Edwards commented “my friend’s tragic death has been hijacked. It is not a tribute any more, it’s about something else – and I don’t like what it has become.” She fears that all men will be “smeared with the same brush” and added “she was extremely unlucky. Her death is not a symptom of a dangerous sexist society.” Another friend, Jaidah Chambers commented “that the priority now should be a healing process. For me, I just want us to work together – men and women – to try our best to drive out what is causing such pain between us”. She is echoing the thoughts of MWWT.
Reports indicate that hijackers included Sisters Uncut, a feminist group with anti-male banners and anti-lockdown supporters turned up. What was meant to be a respectful vigil turned into an ugly hate filled scene. Some banners talked about reclaiming the streets for women and girls – the reality is that the vast majority of female deaths are in the home by known assailants and it was a vast majority of men who were killed on the streets other than the three men killed by women.
MWWT Comment
We are determined that something positive should come out of this tragic incident. The Gender Apartheid policies excluding men/boys must come to an end. Men and Women must work together for ALL VICTIMS which include 67 innocent men and boys, 23 innocent women and 10 innocent children below the age of 8. The streets must be safely reclaimed for all and we must identify the causes and deal with them. To do this we must remove the blame game – it is not about men v women. Men’s and Women’s groups must work together to arrive at a holistic solution.
Men and boys 67 deaths (3 by women) – 45 men were killed by stabbing. Stop and Search must be vigorously re-introduced and set sentences issued. 11 men were killed through drug problems. An outright war must be declared on drug pushers who should be given long sentences. Gangs which sometimes include women must be prosecuted without fear or favour.
Women 23 deaths (all by men)– Analysis shows – 6 killed by ex. 4 killed by men with mental health problems, 2 were street related (1 man demanding sex and another mistakenly gang related), 1 by a fellow churchgoer? and the remaining 10 by violent murder. All these cases must be studied with a view to arrive at solutions which may involve following up incidents involving mental health problems or ex partners posing a safety risk and requiring automatic non molestation orders with appropriate conditions.
Children under the age of – 10 deaths – 4 by both parent’s gross negligence; 1 by serious death by both parents; I by head injuries – father; 4 children by mothers. As in the case of women all these cases must also be studied with a view to arrive at solutions including a greater responsible involvement of social services. I have come across too many cases involving domestic abuse where social services failed to listen to the children.
