Gynocentric UK: Mark Brooks (Mankind Initiative) and Polly Neate (Women's Aid) on 'Woman's Hour'

By Mike Buchanan: Mark Brooks, chairman of Mankind Initiative - http://mankind.org.uk - was his usual convincing self in this interview. Predictably, the narrative of the presenter, Jane Garvey, was more sympathetic towards Polly Neate, the head of Women's Aid. I'm sure if Mark had been given even a little more time, he'd have made some very strong points in response to Polly Neates's claim that 89% of victims of 'repeated abuse / coercive control' are women. It's a claim Women's Aid spokeswomen keep trotting out without being challenged, but we're going to publicly challenge Polly Neate on it (along with other claims WA spokeswomen make) later this week.
