Our thanks to Jack Slocum for this:
Mike, you are aware, of course, of the Istanbul Convention, but are you aware that a body was set up to monitor it (that is, that it is being introduced “correctly”) ?
The body is called Grevio : https://www.coe.int/en/web/istanbul-convention/grevio
The body is gender-balanced as per our times, i.e. twelve women and three men, and it has just attacked the Dutch government for the way it has interpreted the Istanbul Convention, gender-neutrally. From what I have read, the Dutch are not too bad when it comes to sex equality. Pension ages are the same and people accused of sex offences are granted anonymity until found guilty. In the present case, however, Grevio thinks the Istanbul thing should be gender biased in favour of women, This is exactly what Philip Davies suggested would happen in the House of Commons debate:
