This weeks #SundayThread Every contact leaves a trace. Those in policing will recognise this saying. This principle is foundational in forensic science, as it implies that evidence is left behind in every interaction.

This weeks #SundayThread A need for role models. I read this week about the speech given by @GarethSouthgate at the recent #RichardDimbleby lecture. He talked about a need for role models for men beyond online male influencers.

For this weeks #SundayThread A lesson from #GavinAndStaceyFinale Like many of you I tuned into watch the last ever show of this iconic comedy show. Over the years I’ve laughed at & admired the friendship between characters Smithy and Gavin. I’ve also learned (Spoiler alert)
I’ve dedicated a #SundayThread to #giselepelicot before but she deserves another one. This weeks thread “an answer to rape culture is a society so harmful for perps/potential perps that these men know their attitudes are not the norm”
