Tories remove the right to house women fleeing domestic violence and abuse

What the petition asks
If these vulnerable people lose their hostels they will have no support, causing their lives to end in either death or suicide, as that is exactly, what will happen if there is no safe haven for them. They will continue to suffer both physical & mental abuse at the hands of their perpetrators.
Tories please STOP your cutbacks of all hostel accommodation & safe houses for all domestic violence victims & vulnerable people requiring necessary housing support etc in order to prevent human rights violations, such as death of two or more domestically abused women every week.
