‘Women will be more at risk from their partners’: Ex-victims’ commissioner Vera Baird blasts Home Office for plans to stop police from recording ‘trivial’ neighbour rows and warns it could see rise in domestic violence and murder

Vera Baird, 73, is one of the most ghastly feminists of her generation. Among her job titles has been Victims Commissioner, which more accurately – given her concerns in the role – should have been Female Victims Commissioner. She won one of our Toxic Feminist of the Month awards in 2016 – here. Our thanks to Gerry for this piece in the Mail. An extract, quoting Baird:
She said: ‘Many of the women who are murdered each week by their partners are killed after they have tried to contact police for help.’
That would be ‘many’ of the 1.7 women who are murdered each week by their partners. —————————- If you’d like email notifications of our new blog pieces, please enter your email address in the box near the top of the right-hand column and click ‘Subscribe’.

  1. Yep no surprise there. From my knowledge the ordinary officers are heartily sick of having to attend the arguments over “the remote” “weed” and booze that happen in households “well known” to the local police. As you say this has no bearing on the murders (its .8 men a week for men killed by a partner) which are very rare indeed in a country where murder in general (overwhelming of men) is a very rare crime. The numbers have not changed for two decades, which means of course they’ve been decreasing proportionately in a period of massive growth in the overall population, suggesting such murders are so exceptional that they indicate nothing about the general population and society.
