But Damien Gallagher is also calling for improvements to mental health services which he says are “not fit for purpose”. The father-of-one died on 4 October after a lengthy battle with complex mental health issues.

Marie-Therese Murray protests on Garvaghy Rd. She holds a photo of her 12 yr-old son Darren, who was knocked down and killed 30 years ago after being chased by loyalists. She rarely speaks about her loss but felt she had to protest today for “next generation” @IrishTimes

“It was decided and carried out — they washed her, cut her hair, raped her and killed her”
— Israeli Prime Minister Ben-Gurion
David Ben-Gurion wrote this in his diary.
The horrific story of how 20 Israeli soldiers gang raped a young Palestinian girl who was just 13 years old.
Documents revealed the soldiers voted to rape her on a roster for the next 3 days.
She was left unconscious and then taken to the dessert and shot.
She was buried in a one foot grave.
A few days later the battalion commander, Yehuda Drexler, asked Moshe if he had carried out an order to return the girl to her village.
“We killed her” replied Moshe… “It was a shame to waste the petrol”…🇵🇸💔

If there was no immigration here, would there still be VAWG?
I think we all know the answer is *yes* so the problem overwhelmingly is *men*. From all backgrounds. And THAT is what needs to be addressed.
