New laws will ban AI ‘nudification’ tools that use generative AI to create fake nude images without consent.
Anyone who uses these tools will face time behind bars.

One of the most powerful moments you will see in Parliament this year.
Today, @jessphillips read the names of 107 women killed, or suspected to have been killed, by men over the last year.
Each a reminder as to why violence against women and girls must be tackled as the national emergency it is.
They came from every background, every walk of life. Their names are a stark reminder that, for too long, violence against women and girls has been treated as a fact of life - but we will not accept this.
Our Violence Against Women and Girls strategy, launched in December, is only the beginning. We are committed to acting faster and doing whatever it takes to protect more women and girls from harm.

The charity Prostate Cancer UK is calling for sanitary bins to be made mandatory in men’s toilets, saying men left incontinent after treatment need to feel more confident wearing sanitary pads.
Joe Appiah says bins would have made him feel more comfortable to leave the house when he experienced incontinence after his prostate cancer diagnosis.

This is a landmark case which shows that domestic abusers can be held accountable when their victims take their own lives.
Recognising these cases as crimes is so important and would sadly significantly increase the number of women killed by men each year.

🚨 Exciting news! Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance has been chosen as one of @afcbournemouth charity partners for the next 2 seasons! ⚽ We can’t wait to raise awareness of our life-saving work locally – thank you to everyone who voted for us! 💛
When I heard Safeguard Force would be patrolling Bournemouth at night, I didn’t think that meant groups of men waiting in the shadows in poorly lit car parks then approaching women trying to get to their cars… what happened to women’s safety, eh? @dorsetpolice @Sidwick4Dorset

The government has pledged to halve violence against women and girls.
But this cannot be done while lies about its causes are endorsed by those in positions of power.
The facts about VAWG in the UK are stark. Weaponising violence to further a racist agenda is #NotInOurName
ALT Violence against women and girls in the UK: the facts. 1 in 3 will experience domestic violence. 2 women are murdered by a partner or ex-partner every 8 days. More than 90% of perpetrators of rape and sexual assault are known to their victims. 1 in 2 rapes against women are carried out by a partner or ex-partner. More than 90% of stalking perpetrators are known to their victims. 1 in 3 adult survivors of rape experience it in their own home. Women who are subject to No Recourse to Public Funds are 3 times more likely to experience VAWG. 1 in 2 victims of stalking are stalked by a current or ex-intimate partner.
