A review of current parental alienation research and why questions should be asked. Thank you to my amazing and insightful co-authors on this piece. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Short summary of the 'alienating behaviours' guidance. Many positives for which we are grateful but much more to be done re CSA and training of judiciary. Ultimately, the courts require nothing short of overhaul. Let's hope this new guidance is used effectively to protect children and adult victims.

The guidance fails to even mention child sexual abuse, who will be training CAFCASS and the judiciary in deciphering where there is harm from domestic abuse, child sexual abuse and/or harmful manipulation of a child against another parent.

Overall, we welcome this as a positive step BUT We are not convinced this will stop legal professionals and abusers from counter-claiming alienating behaviours: full guidance here: www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/u...

Safety at work? Sadly not for the 1 in 3 women in the EU that have been sexually harassed at work. Shocking survey findings from @eu-eurostat.extwitter.link / @eurightsagency.bsky.social / EIGE. From prevention to protection, employers take note. For more see: europa.eu/!rybfbP

New figures from the Joseph Rowntree Foundation: - 7 million families are going without essentials, including 5.4 million without enough food. - 86% of those on Universal Credit, and 93% of those with UC deductions, are affected. Overgenerous benefits, #Dispatches?

Thanks @safelives.bsky.social: Data held by police only provides a partial picture of the actual level of domestic abuse experienced, as only 1 in 5 people report to the police -we need a national domestic abuse data dashboard which draws together qual/quant data from survivors, services, Maracs LAs
