Keir Starmer says he wants to help women. I can't believe him anymore

“This societal blind spot to male violence is nothing new….yet we resist labelling attacks against women as terror’, seemingly preferring instead to portray them as lone-wolf acts of violence caused by poor mental health.” My (first) piece for Metro

If the Sydney attacker targeted women we should be calling it a terrorist attack

While the police still seek to determine Cauchi’s exact motivations, police have said he may have ‘targeted women’ specifically.
