11 March 2020: John James, domestic violence survivor, and Dr Teresa Silva, Professor of Criminology
John James is a British domestic violence survivor. In 2018 his book "From the Darkness: My True Story" was published.
He recently travelled to Sweden - a country with no homeless shelters specifically for men - to take part in a seminar about male victims of domestic violence.
The seminar was hosted by Dr Teresa Silva, a Professor of Criminology at Mid Sweden University. Her university web page is here:
They were joined by Tom Caulfield, our Technical Director, who filmed and edited all the footage in this video, other than the final section, which was recorded on John James's phone. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOwVhrWZioc

This interview with an Icelandic imam and, more importantly, Silja Dögg Gunnarsdóttir, Icelandic MP, was on the BBC's flagship early morning news programme, Today. John Humphrys is predictably uninformed about the relative harms caused by MGM and FGM – all MGM is more injurious than most FGM – but the MP responds well. We look forward to this story developing over the coming weeks and months.

It is doubtful whether any human being has done more to raise public understanding of the toxic nature of feminism.

Our thanks to Baroness Brady for her kind testimonial, shown in the image above. Her hour-long documentary, "Why do men earn more than women?" can be seen by people living in the UK, on the Channel 5 website:
https://www.my5.tv/why-do-men-earn-more-than-women/season-1/why-do-men-earn-more-than-women
The "interview" with Brady covers 26:57 - 30:33.
For the truth about the gender pay gap - spoiler alert, the gap is not a problem - you need only read this piece by William Collins:
http://mra-uk.co.uk/?p=2010
Collins will be one of 18 speakers at the fourth International Conference on Men's Issues, London, 20-22 July, 2018:

Our thanks to Mike Porter for taking this footage. It starts early in the day, in Trafalgar Square, before most people arrived. We marched to the Royal Courts of Justice, the speakers on this video are Jordan Holbrook, then another man (can someone please let us know his name?), then Nigel Pankhurst.

This must surely rank as the most idiotic maiden speech ever given by an MP in the House of Commons, please email us if you know of one that is even more idiotic [As at 12.9.20, nobody had yet emailed us in response to this request.]. Ms Phillips chose that most ludicrous of feminist narratives, about the gender pay gap, as the core of her speech. As we'd expect from a gobby narcissist feminist, the speech was mainly about herself, and she even found time to mock her husband over his lack of qualifications, whilst bragging about her own two 'degrees' (one is a postgraduate diploma, as we can see from her entry on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jess_Phillips_(politician).
She spoke of the 'misfortune' of having two children, 'Both of whom are sons, incidentally!' They must be so proud of her.
We presented Ms Phillips with our 'Toxic Feminist of the Month' award - here https://j4mb.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/151031-v2-jess-phillips-mp-toxic-feminist-of-the-month.pdf - in recognition of her maiden speech and her mocking of Philip Davies MP over his application to have a discussion on men's issues in the House of Commons chamber during International Men's Day, 19 November 2015. That day we'll be supporting Men Do Complain http://mendocomplain.com in protesting against MGM in Parliament Square, London. We invite you to join us.
