There is a larger proportion, but if you look at the Home Office figures, it’s fairly clear there’s a large percentage of men, albeit a minority—I concede that. But also, one issue in south Wales, if you’re a male, is it’s very difficult to persuade the police to accept a complaint. I’ve stood next to people and complaints have not been accepted.

In terms of the victims, when they go for help, males are screened. Females are not screened. I’ll give you an example. The Live Fear Free helpline will screen males as perpetrators and they won’t screen females.

There’s discrimination in housing. If you’re a non-resident parent—usually male, but not always nowadays—you will only qualify for a one-bedroomed property if you have three children and you’re not the principal carer. So, be you a mother or a father, you’re stuck in a one-bedroomed property with three children and you will lose overnight contact. That is not equal. That is not equal at all. And you’re also subject to bedroom tax, which is wrong. And that is class discrimination. It’s discrimination against parents on the basis of economic income.

If you look at transgender parents, I think there needs to be legislation in Wales to protect them because there was a case yesterday where a transgender parent lost contact with the child for simply being transgender. That is discrimination and we need legislation to stop that.

I think, in Wales, we also suffer from linguistic discrimination because there are parents in this city—the capital of Wales—who cannot choose Welsh-medium education. That’s wrong. The deaf community as well, if you receive education from a tutor, there is no minimum qualification of British Sign Language for a teacher and that is wrong.

Gypsies and Travellers. One thing I’m looking forward to hopefully putting right after May is, if you go to Rover Way, and I invite anyone to go down there, the state of the place—. That is not equality. There’s not even a play area for the children and there’s no path to school. It’s a hugely dangerous road. So, that isn’t equality either.

There’s also gender discrimination and abuse of colleagues in local government. What has this Government done? We’ve got a Minister who is going to pontificate now about domestic abuse and the rights of females, and yet he has done nothing—nothing at all—to look after females in local government who are the victims of abuse, and members of his own party have acknowledged that.

If you look at the disabled, very often care plans are failing, and disabled people have to have residential care. It’s not their fault; the condition doesn’t—. They don’t have to have residential care, it’s because the care plans are failing, and residential care is more expensive.
