Jim Shannon

Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 November 2024

Debate

Men’s Violence against Women and Girls

Contribution

I commend and congratulate the hon. Lady on securing this debate. I know that the Minister has a love of Northern Ireland, and in the last year six women have been murdered in Northern Ireland—I understand that all the cases are pending. Does that not illustrate that, no matter where we are in this great United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, the murder rate for women is absolutely abysmal?
