Suzannah --
When, one after another, women MPs stood in Parliament recently to disclose they were survivors of sexual violence, some people insisted they must have been exaggerating to make a political point. But the cold, hard reality is that these women represent the statistical norm for women and girls in New Zealand, who are amongst the worst off in the world when it comes to sexual violence. Last year New Zealand was ranked below only sub-Saharan Africa, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe when it comes to rates of sexual violence.[1]
That’s why we are calling on the Government to fully fund specialist sexual violence support services.
Please sign the petition now, we'll be delivering it on Wednesday. 8000 people have already signed, we need to get that number up to 15,000 by Wednesday.
If you are in Wellington, please join us on Wednesday for the petition delivery.
One in three women in New Zealand experience physical or sexual violence from a partner in their lifetime. Three in four teenage girls in New Zealand reported at least one incident of unwanted sexual activity. Police are called to a family violence situation in our country every seven minutes.[2]
There is no reason to be surprised therefore, though every reason to be appalled, that of the 40 women MPs in New Zealand more than six of them have survived sexual violence.
And that is why we started this campaign, to stand in solidarity with all survivors of sexual violence in our country and call on John Key to put his money where his mouth is: If he claims to stand with the survivors rather than the perpetrators of sexual violence, then he must fully fund the sector that provides essential support to survivors. A sector which this Government has systematically defunded.
This Wednesday, 25 November, is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. It is the first of sixteen days of action, around the world, calling governments to take better steps to prevent violence against women, and to better support women and girls who survive sexual and other violence. It is the perfect day on which to deliver our message to to Parliament.
Sexual violence is impossible to ignore for too many women and girls in New Zealand, and we want to make this petition impossible to ignore - which means getting a lot more signatures on it before Wednesday, and then delivering it in a creative way, which will give the media something to report on. Here’s how you can help:
Like many other people I was deeply moved at the sight of female MPs being shut down in Parliament as they stood to speak up as survivors of sexual violence.[3] Whatever you made of the politics of the exchange, there was something profoundly disturbing about survivors being denied the right to speak, one after the other. For some of us, that moment had echoes of other painful memories.
But now we can create a new memory - of thousands of New Zealanders coming together to say ‘It’s not okay’ to silence survivors of sexual violence, and to call for real support to the people and organisations who work day and night to support survivors and to prevent sexual violence.
Thank you for being one of them,
Marianne
NB: This topic is a harrowing one. If you or someone you know could benefit from some support, please consider finding a sexual violence support service in your area. References:

Bloomberg Newzzz, winning was a snooze. City Hall is rife with corruption; city council members & aides caught stealing tax payers money- to the pension fund scandals. City Councils' votes to extend term limits are tainted & must be tossed out! Suzannah B. Troy is a NYC artist & paints with words. "Thanks to the Bloomberg administration, I went to bed in the East Village, my home of 20 years and woke up in bad xerox of mid-town turning into a bad xerox of Dubai."

Suzannah B. Troy Confronts Sheldon Silver 2 Years Before Preet Bharara and the Press
https://youtu.be/AkfcHYFf1G8 2 yrs before Preet and Press I asked Shelly R U Part of corruption as he walked in to a court house.
Power is Albany City Hall's crack cocaine -- who hasn't abused their power? Vito Lopez? Just a joke..
From Albany to City Hall and 1 Police Plaza back room deals kick backs abuse of power....it is their crack cocaine and mostly everyone involved abusing power....
Really almost a joke because Vito Lopez, and how many families, NY State and City run by mostly families that have money funneled to them as well as the NYPD PBA totally corrupt fixing favors retaliation finally Sheldon pissed one to many People off and they took him out after all these years but IT IS BUSINESS AS USUAL CORRUPTION RIFE OUT OF CONTROL FROM ALBANY TO CITY HALL TO ONE POLICE PLAZA -- IT IS ALL ABOUT FIXING FAVORS KICK BACKS AND MOSTLY WAY TOO MANY TEFLON....
pedro espada teflon and Arroyo family teflon, and so many families that put their mistresses, boyfriends on the payroll etc.
Just like CityTime -- way more stealing and as soon as SAIC came on board like SAIC NSA Trailblazer and 911 tech corruption originally called ECTP a billion plus dollar on 911 tech corruption and Chief Chuck Dowd's role -- last big nasty Dowd and Bratton host a board meeting for FirstNet as One Police Plaza -- I get the photo of the meeting from FirstNet's website...
I was and remain ahead of the came -- the only one calling for a criminal prosecution on 911 tech corruption and a new Commission in to NYPD, Internal Affairs and DA corruption as well as the agencies that are suppose to investigate police wrong doing and don't or become accessories cooking the books....
I am calling for forensic audit of the NYPD, IAB, CCRB, NYPD Inspector General Budgets as well as Chief of Operations -- lets look at the cases, how they close them and how much it costs....
Lets look at 311, Board of Election, Corp Counsel and have them and all gov agencies literally put their spending on the front of their website running tickers...
Shelly is just one of how many ---- ironic because so many in your face crooks teflon...
