The MP highlighted the barriers that prevent survivors of domestic abuse from engaging in political activities due to stigma, structural biases, and ongoing harassment. She emphasised her own experiences of being threatened and intimidated during electoral campaigns and legal processes. A councillor's case was cited where she faced hundreds of abusive messages on public forums putting her at risk during local elections. The MP also mentioned the lack of protections despite Operation Ford’s introduction, questioning how survivors can safely participate in political activities post-separation. She called for better workplace protections for abuse survivors and new duties for political parties to support candidates who are survivors of domestic abuse. The MP proposed amendments to the Representation of the People Bill to ensure survivor safety during elections, supported by Elect Her and the Jo Cox Foundation.
