A recent report highlights that violence against women and girls in the United Kingdom (UK) has reached epidemic proportions, with the situation worsening despite government initiatives. The National Audit Office (NAO) criticizes the government’s fragmented approach, noting a lack of coordination among departments and insufficient funding for support services. The report emphasizes the need for a comprehensive, cross-departmental strategy to effectively address this crisis. Labor’s shadow home secretary, Yvette Cooper, describes the findings as “devastating,” urging immediate action to protect women and girls.
