"The first national analysis of the scale of violence against women and girls (VAWG) released in July by the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC) estimated that 2 million women were victims of male violence every year—an epidemic so serious it amounts to a national emergency."
"On average, a woman is killed by a man in the UK every three days. One in 12 women in England and Wales will experience stalking, harassment, sexual assault or domestic violence."
"The government has given little detail about how it will measure its success. It has, however, already given some indicators of shifts in policy."
"Jess Phillips, the VAWG minister, told the Guardian that support for victims and effective policing would be crucial, and pointed to already announced policies, adding: These are the first steps toward what I hope will be real, tangible change."
