Our mate stopped going the game, he stopped going to Party’s, he stopped texting us, he stopped going the pub, he stayed silent, we put the jigsaw together when it was too late, look out for you’re mate, he may need that little push to open up, I wish we had had that chance 💙

Richard Spencer is classed by the Government as being a victim of violence against a woman! he’s a man. This shows how male victims are minimised. We need change, ourselves & other male support groups are battling for such change it should not be a battle #mywifemyabuser

75% of UK suicides are male, 84% of homeless are male, a large percentage of them males are victims of domestic abuse, stop ignoring these men, or telling them to ‘man up’ it shouldn’t be a battle to support these men… sadly it is

So wait a minute - a woman who appears to be about 5ft 3ins tall, is accused of assaulting her 6ft 4ins tall boyfriend? C'mon - how many women have thrown things at partners in a rage? Surely, the police could have applied common sense here? Feel for her..
