Great to see coverage from @SkyNews this morning on our campaign to end the presumption of child contact with abusive parents! Michelle, an anonymous survivor and mother who fought to protect her child from an abuser, speaks on the need for change.

Indeed, campaigners, support providers and survivors have argued that rape is practically decriminalised due to low conviction rates and offenders serving extremely short sentences. In both criminal and family courts, we see victim blaming, post-separation abuse, and the most

Rates of sexual violence and domestic abuse are incredibly high, yet survivors often report that they do not receive the justice they are seeking.

Despite 14 findings of abuse, including rape and coercive control, Kate was advised to allow contact or risk being accused of “parental alienation.” Her story is not unique. Survivors can be anyone—and the family court system is failing them all.

(2/2) The 2020 Harm Panel Report called for an urgent review of the presumption of parental involvement—but five years on, that review still hasn’t seen daylight. The Labour Government has made no meaningful progress. No review and no reform. WE DEMAND CHANGE.

(1/2)📣 The silence is deafening—and dangerous. ‘Breaking the Silence’ lays bare what survivors and campaigners have been saying for years: the family court system is failing to protect women and children.

Survivors like former MP Kate Kniveton, and, in the documentary, the safeguarding minister Jess Phillips MP, openly call for change. How many more children need to be harmed before the Government acts?.

From Sara Shariff’s tragic case to alarming revelations about child sex offenders gaining custody, the scandals pile up while meaningful change remains nowhere in sight. Enough delays. Enough excuses. It's time for Labour to deliver the reforms that survivors desperately need.

The Labour Government must stop sitting on its hands and deliver urgent family court reform. Despite promising radical action on violence against women and girls, Labour has spent its first year in office simply maintaining the status quo.

🚨 Enough is enough. 🚨 Family courts are failing survivors and their children, and the Government is doing far too little to change that. The presumption of parental involvement must be repealed urgently, as recommended by the Harm Panel Report back in 2020.
