But apparently the co-director of the End Violence Against Women Coalition says it doesn't want his money.

/// This messaging simultaneously makes the safety and very bodies of women and girls of colour invisible – because it is seemingly only white girls’ bodies that need protection, even though black and Asian girls have been significant among child sexual exploitation victims. ///

Where has Tommy Robinson suggested anything like this, and why can't Far-Right people also show concern for women's safety regardless of their colour or race?

I think that this woman has a very large chip on her shoulders and is a disgrace to 'ALL' women who have unfortunately been abused.

I disagree. I do not think this woman is a disgrace. She doesn't want to be affiliated with Tommys promises to help his political campaign.
Also if tommy cared about grooming gangs he wouldn't be in trial literally today for contempt of court.
//On Friday 43 women’s organisations published an open letter voicing our disgust at Tommy Robinson’s pledge to donate his MEP salary to victims of sexual abuse if he is elected in the north-west of England. We are calling on voters throughout the region to reject him.//

How is that helping abused women? Difficult to support organisations when their politics take precedence over their declared purpose.

She speaks for them, danny. I think they all have chips on their shoulders.
Tommy using victims of grooming gangs for his political career. Yep, what a good man he is.
It's an idle promise anyway, he has a snowball in hell's chance of being elected.
You'd rather he didn't speak out against grooming gangs, spath?

On another thread you criticised Michael Gove for NOT declaring a Climate emergency during his political career!

Hope you like humble pie, Danny. (bookmarked for next week, :-))

It is Sarah Green the co-director of the End Violence Against Women Coalition, who has written this article and has such, made herself the spokeswomen on behalf of those 43 women’s organisations.

Therefore I stand by my accusation.

Naomi, I thought spath did well to get 8 minutes into the thread before he abused Tommy
Indeed, Baldric - and by the way thank you for what you said yesterday. I had no opportunity to say that in the appropriate place.
Another charity did this style of virtue-signalling. (possibly with Trump)
Blew up in their faces big time.
SR, IPSL.
I'm not an abused woman, but if I was I doubt I'd be too concerned about where the money that was needed to help me out of the situation came from. Tommy indeed has some extreme views but his money is as good as anybody else's.

Isn't it a politician's duty, no matter of what political persuasion to stand up for victims of grooming gangs?

Although these days, some of our politicians wish to bury their heads in the sand and hope it isn't broadcasted about too much.
IPSL? Don't know that one.
SR, Sorry, omitted the M.

And I suppose that you would be promise to donate all your winnings from the lottery (if you take part in it) even though you would have a snowball in hells chance of winning?
