Mixed feelings about yesterday's visit to Buckingham Palace. 10 mins after arriving, a member of staff, Lady SH, approached me, moved my hair to see my name badge. The conversation below took place. The rest of the event is a blur. Thanks @ManduReid & @SuzanneEJacob for support🙏🏾

My friend is on that plane bound for Jamaica this morning. I've just spoken to his wife. His daughter, (16 last week) and son (13 next week) are inconsolable. Dad's been here for well over 20 years, has nobody in Jamaica. We've all been up all night, very sad day for humanity.

Thanks everyone for their support. It is not our wish to reveal the person involved, it is the system that needs to be revised. Yes the person was offensive, but it serves no purpose to name & shame her, it would make us just as bad. We prefer that this be handled kindly 🙏🏾

Last night my sister packed a bag for her husband of 20 years to be deported. I sat with her at 3.30am as we waited for possible news of a reprieve. It didn't come. That's my baby sister, I can't help her or my niece & nephew, words can't express how we feel right now.

@monisha_rajesh @ManduReid @SuzanneEJacob There was nobody to report it to. I could'nt report it to the Queen Consort, plus it was such a shock to me and the other 2 women, that we were stunned to temporary silence. I just stood at the edge of the room, smiled & engaged briefly with who spoke to me until I could leave.

We were founded after their deaths. Valerie, a HACKNEY centre manager, asked police for protection, they logged it as a 'threat to property'. Her ex attacked her with a machete, screwdriver & hammer, he then killed their 23 month old baby. Too graphic? THAT'S WHY WE EXIST BLM

@Sistah_Space @mayorofhackney @38_degrees Hi @Sistah_Space . We absolutely support your work, which is why we've invested £35,000 in your existing premises at your request and waived any rent during this crisis. You won't have to move until 31 July at the earliest, and we'll continue to review that in the coming weeks.

Ngozi has temporarily stepped down as CEO, but has 'stepped-up' for abuse survivors. Our focus MUST remain on black victims, survivors & the children failed by mainstream services. Racist cowards can NEVER stop her. Thank you @HackneyAbbott for always championing equal rights🙏🏽

We can't let the bullies win. They have been through too much. Praying that this young family will be allowed to live the rest of their lives and raise their children in peace.

"13 DEAD NOTHING SAID" On this anniversary of the New Cross fire, we remeber the 13 young people who died in such a tragic way. We also remember another young person who died later, unable to come to terms with their deaths. RIEP 🙏🏿

This is not a one off. We've had service users afraid to report abuse became the perpetrator is a serving officer who got his colleagues to further intimidate the victim. They only stepped off when we stepped in. Police have been assaulting black women for many decades

At least 16 serving or former police officers have killed women. Why does this matter? Comment from the Femicide Census

Tonight we came together for our community sisters/daughters, Bibaa and Nicole. This kind of unity will one day end violence against women. The message was clear as was the love shown. I pray mum got some comfort from the outpouring of love. TOUCH ONE, TOUCH ALL

WE REMEMBER VALERIE FORDE on what would have been her 51st birthday. Valerie & her baby were murdered by a vicious ex-partner/the child's father. Sistah Space was founded after their deaths. Please spare a thought for her three children that are left to cope without her. RIEP x

Are the @metpoliceuk are on their way to arrest the guy for inciting hate & gun violence? If not, why not? These guys often use privilege, race & misogyny to attack. I fear for Diane, it's too much. If the government & police won't stop them, we must!🙏🏾 @DawnButlerBrent

We have worked hard to support a specific demographic of neglected, marginalised women facing domestic abuse. Valerie Ford & baby RJ were murdered, discrimination costs lives. Everything we do is in the best interest of the charity, the women we serve & our communities 🙏🏿
