there was a zeitgeist moment with sarah everard.hat was a moment. i think the demonstration, the video that was held was policed very poorly —— the vigil was policed very poorly. so that was an opportunity to say, let's look at this. that's probably one of the reasons why the report is so hard hitting. it says some very, very telling truths about the way we deal with issues around county lines and the resources we put into that as opposed to domestic abuse. so, as long as the recommendations of this report followed, we will see change. the danger is we often have reports on the recommendations gather dust on shelves and i don't think we can allow that to happen any more. women have been treated appallingly for far too long. we need a sea in attitude. ., ., , . ., attitude. you have experience of this first hand. _ attitude. you have experience of this first hand. i'm _ attitude. you have experience of this first hand. i'm talking - attitude. you have experience of this first hand. i'm talking about| this first hand. i'm talking abou
