new domestic abuse law comes into force 29.12.15



yes i am a victim

but i am waving good bye to anonymity

the internet is my vitamin

its my home my world my city.

there are plenty of haters

x lovers by the kilo

don't view the list of videos of self masturbate ers

she flattening you like pastry filo.

on twitter please refuse

don't join the campaign

my poetry is what you should abuse

anything else is just a name stain.

facebook please don't delete

i was once in demand

the million that dislike i will defeat

add and like me i command.

back to my conclusion

under domestic abuse i have to draw a line

are you crazy or under a illusion

its your fault as like me you put your life online.


( in case I go on a mad one - may I take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year. as for the haters online - your time is ticking :shrug: )

Domestic abusers who control victims via social media or spy on them online could face up to five years in prison under a new law which is now in force.
The legislation will target those who subject spouses, partners and family members to psychological and emotional torment but stop short of violence.
It paves the way for charges in cases where there is evidence of repeated "controlling or coercive behaviour".
The Women's Aid charity said it was a "landmark moment" in tackling abuse.
The new law, brought into force in England and Wales, follows a Home Office consultation in which 85% of participants said the existing law did not provide sufficient protection.
It comes as Citizens Advice published figures showing a 24% rise in those seeking advice for domestic abuse.
