Preventing and Combating Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence (Ratification of Convention) Bill

I am listening intently to the hon. Gentleman’s excellent speech. Does he agree that the key problem is men—obviously, it is men perpetrating the violence—and that there is a responsibility on all of us as men, as well as on women, to talk to other men about how it is completely unacceptable to use violence and abuse against women? We must step up to the plate and speak out by becoming ambassadors for White Ribbon and other organisations. We must

preach to the unconverted and ignorant men in our land and across the world who continue to perpetrate this unnecessary violence.
