British people and honour killings isn’t something I’d have thought they were into.
Seems more like a Pakistani thing.
The fact that the article has to put “honour” in quotes every single time they use it says to me that they should be calling it something else.
Words have power. Attaching a positive word to misogynistic domestic violence is a bad idea, and putting it in quotes doesn’t make it any better.
This is bizzare to me because everything involved in an “”honour”” killing is already illegal.
I’m all for acknowledging non-native customs but they need to leave shit like this back in the Medieval era. Britain does not want this nonsense
I asked for an AI overview on where it’s more and less prevalent in Europe:
*Honour-Based Abuse (HBA) Prevalence in Europe*
*More Prevalent:*
*- United Kingdom: High reports, especially in South Asian and Middle Eastern communities; forced marriages and honour killings noted.*
*- Germany: Common in Turkish and Kurdish communities; honour killings and forced marriages reported.*
*- Netherlands: Notable in Turkish and Moroccan communities; focus on forced marriages.*
*- Sweden: Reported in Middle Eastern and South Asian diasporas; honour-related violence highlighted.*
*- France: Seen in North African and Middle Eastern communities; linked to domestic violence.*
*Less Prevalent:*
*- Nordic Countries (except Sweden): Lower rates in Norway, Denmark, Finland, Iceland; smaller relevant communities.*
*- Eastern Europe: Few reports in Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic; less cultural emphasis on honour norms.*
*- Southern Europe: Lower prevalence in Spain, Portugal, Italy; smaller diaspora populations.*
*- Baltic States: Minimal reports in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia; demographic homogeneity.”*
Isnt this the type of thing we should be focusing on as actual issues to women and girls instead of trans people and pride marches?
Infact the more pro LGBTQ a group is the less likely this shit happens
The definition should be: zero tolerance against it.
You don’t need to clarify it, someone murders someone based upon a belief system which is incompatible to a normal functioning society. That person needs sending to prison for life, doesn’t matter if they killed someone because their family honour demands it, it’s not the old times
What’s the point of defining all this if the courts are going to spare prison for violent parents?

“The number of “honour”-based abuse offences recorded by English police forces had increased by more than 60% in two years”.
I wonder why.
