The Far Right use the tactics of common domestic abusers, as do extremists of every stripe now including elected leaders. Just so these men know, we see the gaslighting, lying, DARVO and playing the victim for exactly what it is and you for exactly what you are. Cowards.

A Drop Of Sea. Designed and tattooed by me at my studio, Studio Bijoux, Bradford.
