This video is a public service announcement. This channel's audience is 95% men - and I'm sick of being pressured to feel somehow responsible when a tiny proportion of individual scumbags behaves violently towards women. The official government statistics reveal a starkly different picture.

How many men have taken their own lives because children are alienated from Dads ?

Excellent video John. This PM is doing an excellent job of dividing us into every possible minority group rather than uniting us as AUSTRALIANS.

Mens self harm due to intimate partner mental abuse is the silent statistic that is never talked about. Nagging Kills.

I was a cop for a few years and turned up to many many domestic incidents. I can't remember a single one where the female was completely innocent. Every incident, they were both as bad as each other and most of the time, the female admitted to starting it and chucking something at the bloke first. Everytime the bloke got arrested though. I even got a disciplinary for arresting the women one time after she admitted to hitting him and chucking something at him first and all he did was pin her up in self defence and chuck her out of the house. She then proceeded to get a group of lads to beat him up in his own house and when we turned up and she admitted all this on my body cam I got fucked for saying he was the victim. Not to mention bullshit crime statistics. They'll create a crime on the system even if it turns out one didn't happen, then write up in the description what happened, so the statistics will say domestic crime female victim but in the write up of the description it'll say, non crime or female party admitted to commuting offence. The starts are all bullshit.

I stopped consuming any modern media over 10 years ago. The less government propaganda I'm exposed to the better.

Watch what happens to a society when men simply.. ..walk away.

My brother has been in a living hell for over the past 2 years due to the abuse of DV laws by his ex wife, their is zero accountability for false accusations made by his partner. Hasn't been able to talk to or see his kids and fears leaving the house in case he might encounter his ex partner in public and be charged with violating the AVO. Just a few months ago he and his current partner had to fly to Townsville for court proceedings when he bumped into his ex at Sydney airport (apparently they were booked on the same flight. His ex complained to Federal police that he had violated the AVO and he was forced off the plane and had to arrange arrange another flight. The federal police then charged him with violating the AVO even though he had no idea his ex would be on the same flight from Sydney to Townsville. The current Domestic violence laws are an absolute disgrace for those Men who dearly love their children (he has a boy and a girl) and has spent hundreds of thousands on lawyers dealing with a Malicious Prosecution with no end in site. Shame, Shame Shame on Albo for saying that all men are evil violent misogynist.

Schrödinger's feminism: a woman is simultaneously strong, independent and empowered and also an appressed victim; until something happens. Then she chooses which state benefits her the most and behaves accordingly.

Albo saying "men as a group need to change their behaviour" when speaking about the Domestic violence national crisis. Is like blaming all drivers for the injuries and deaths caused by drunk drivers.

Morrison made me angry. Albanese makes me sick.

As a retired police officer I’ve been involved and investigated many domestic violence incidents in 3 Australian jurisdictions spanning 23 years. Back in the 90’s, 2 female offenders that killed their husbands both walked free being successful in arguing that they were the victims. One of those women went on and did the same a second time not long after. I see that as one’s M.O. Sure once a victim, but not twice. That’s one’s own habit. You need to look at those crime statistics a bit closer to get the conviction rate of female offenders to that of men. Most minor crimes by women won’t even get to court with only the more serious crimes committed against a person likely to, and then the typical defenses emerge. Back in 2008 whilst serving as a police officer in one jurisdiction, I was victim of DV myself and sought emergency accommodation for myself and my daughter & recourse. I was told by the States support services that there was NO agency available supporting men. I received NO support that I knew was available for women as victims of Domestic violence. What I knew was available for women was not offered or available for me. One jurisdiction I worked in; the directive was; if you attend a domestic incident even a verbal argument (male vs female = relationship), you WILL arrest the man. No matter what.. The other two jurisdictions weren’t as severe as that. I no longer reside in Australia, moving overseas in 2018 but I would argue IF there is an increase in general terms, statistically, it’s more to do with the increasing of legislation favoring or protecting women more than available laws whilst I was serving, targeting men, and that they do not favor men in Australia and NEVER will. It’s an offence.

Politicians do not give a s..t about the facts. The only thing they care about is reelection.

Thank you John. My mother was an extremely violent alcoholic, she came so close to murdering my gentle and quiet father on many occasions. My sister and I were abused over many years. No one knew, we just kept it to ourselves. I then married a woman my mother said was not a good choice, and she was correct. After a few years and 3 kids, my life became pure hell. She provoked and belittled me on a constant basis, very often pleading with me to hit her. I never did, I am a gentle man like my dad. This too was unreported, I just put up with it as long as I could. Her evil continued and still does, after 30 years, she tries to hurt me emotionally, and for no good reason. She has managed to poison my three daughters too, none of whom have talked to me for many years, I have 3 grandchildren I have never met. My long-term partner says I'm the most gentle and caring man she has ever met. Female violence is out there, but it is rarely reported.

Years ago, I was a "pubic officer". I lost count of the domestics I attended were the female had bashed the male with a frying pan, bottle or was threatening him and us with a kitchen knife. We would take the male away to a friend's house as it was less paperwork and they would be back together the next day anyway. Violence against men is way under reported as its embarassing for the male to make a complaint. Some of the wives are the size of a twin door Kelvinator, covered in tattoos, smoke in the mouth and would even scare Batman.

With 25 tears in law and justice, 10 years in Family Law and over 7 years in Family Law and domestic violence law reform..... I agree. Completely.

Male couples approx 16% split/divorce rate, Hetero couples 54% divorce, Lesbian 90%+. Jee i wonder who the problem is!

A breath of fresh air, I called the ABC a few nights back on the long drive home after night shift and absolutely tore them about this. Every time you turn on the radio they are pointing fingers at Australian men and im sick and tired of it.

A woman who shares her feelings is called strong. A man who shares his feelings is called weak. Beer can only suppress the darkness for so long. Stay strong fellas

Im fed up with the outright lies and man bashing that is now considered acceptable. The majority of protection and hard work is done by men. Lets see how things go without the police, military, truck drivers, builders, garbage collectors... all the shitty jobs that get done quietly behind the scenes so that women can be comfortable and safe. Thank you to all the good men out there that look after us, I for one, appreciate you.

One thing that is missing from this discussion is the male suicide rate! How many males have self-terminated because of an abusive domestic situation.

133 children killed by maternal filicide in the last 10 years. This will never be discussed.

Drugs in this country have a lot to answer for.... but this doesn't get addressed

You are the only person that I have seen to quantify what’s really happening with facts. On behalf of all men in Australia, thank you!

Q: How do you know when a politician is lying? A: Their lips are moving.

Sadly, society is moving in a direction of capitulation to the ones that shout the loudest, not the ones who speak truth.

I for one am getting tired of the hate speech coming from our Govt

Seen several videos now displaying this data and am now (as if I wasn’t already) convinced that the only thing that is toxic in this country is our government and media 🤷‍♂️

As a male victim of DV, with police witnesses, video and audio and written evidence. I'm over it. Every step of the process to rid my life of my stalker, I was treated as the perpetrator. YEARS of my life and over 100k in legal fees (she had a new lawyer adjourn the case every chance she got) and a loss of a job, needing a change in career. I'm over it. I learned after that she's done it to four people (that I know of) and walked away after being charged with (and found guilty of) 7 indictable offences (including threats to kill and possession of a controlled weapon) she walked away with a 12 month good behavior bond. I was told in no uncertain terms (multiple times, from multiple sources through the ordeal) that I'd be in prison. As a male, the only 'help' line available to us is available "to men who use violence against their families". No wonder reports of violence against men are so low. Would I ever report it again? Not a chance. Amazing how many other people I met with similar stories during the process. Not to mention the men I know who's female partners threaten taking their children away if they don't toe the line. It's an absolute farce, and a complete disgrace.

We are told men need to step up and call out violence against women which implies the average dude sees violence against women acceptable. I’ve worked in male dominated industries all my working career and not once have I heard a guy talk or boast about smacked his partner about. reason he knows he will be seen as a scumbag and called out . Thanks John for calling this bullshit out

10 years in as a police member in the area of my state with the highest rate of FV. This is absolutely on the money.

I guess the prime Minister doesn't count himself as a man. True that

Excess deaths? Cost of living? Immigration? Teenage crime? Nothing to see here.

I'm working at a major mining company in WA. Our homepage also mentioning the increasing problem of violence against woman.... while mentioning woman will be prioritized in career opportunities over men. I have 2 young sons. Hopefully this madness will stop.

Hey mate. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR STANDING UP FOR US. In my opinion every single word you have said in this post is 100 % CORRECT

The war on family. Take the bloke out of the family home, good blokes that is, and we're in trouble.

Thanks John, this Prime Minister is not evidence based, hence does untold long term damage to our community.

As a woman, this was well said!!!

Thanks for this. I hate being blamed by the Manipulative Media for something I didnt do and never have!

Thank fuck, you have spoken the truth. It was amazing how uncomfortable I felt sitting on the lounge with my partner watching those bullshit news stories, feeling guilty for no reason. This video needs to be broadcast uncensored and uninterrupted on all public networks in its entirety. As if that will happen.

We need more Aussies like you Cadogan to use their platform to speak for the silent majority that don’t want to lose their jobs from speaking out

Well said, you are a brave man.

Thanks for speaking about this John. The war on men has been escalating for years

Australians have never been safer- except from the state and federal governments.

Thank you John. This is important. I'm 62, 2 sons & 1 daughter, voted Labor all my life. Never voting Labor again. (and can't watch mainstream "journalists")

Why has Albo not been CHARGED with "misinformation" for the false promise of $275 power credits 2 YEARS AGO.

Distraction while they quietly roll in digital Id.

The decline in domestic violence over the past thirty years today faces two circumstantial challenges. Firstly, there is housing stress. Secondly there is last year's brand new Family Law Act.

Thanks John. This is serious. I’ve been a victim of domestic violence in an abusive relationship … according to my Pyscholgist…but no one has asked me how I feel. If the tables were turned I’d be locked up, Yes a great segment and exactly!!! Thank you !

Masculinity emergency, Climate emergency, Covid emergency, Racism emergency, Information emergency....and on it goes. Every politician is on at least a 6-figure pay packet. Anybody know what they do to earn it?......

I’ve sent this to everyone I can think of John. People are shocked and are sucked in by mainstream media. It’s the old ‘all men are evil’ meme. Thank you John again.

Only government could screw up a reasonably simple data set

Testosterone has been under attack for many years, ideologically and biologically...................

For what it’s worth, my wife totally agrees with your views on this. She used to be an analyst with our country’s version of the NSA, so sorting facts from bullshit comes more easily for her than it does for most others.

John I am 52 and never raised a little as a finger to any women...If i could hit like button 2000 times I would. More men and women need to tell the truth about DV in this country. Bravo Zulu Sir

Albos existence is a national crisis

Careful John, Cyber-Karen will be looking at you if you keep this sort of thing up.

Albo does the entire nation a disservice by getting out of bed every day

Nice to have some facts presented without having to go and look for them.

We are well overdue for a men’s minister. For the sake of everyone especially kids.

Thanks for breaking this down, John. I am sick of the blame being thrown at the feet of all men, for issues that are created by a few scumbags & criminals.

Well said John. I had begun to think i was the only one who was seeing this. I have shared this and it should be shared widely to assist in correcting the bovine excrement being generated out there.

As a white male aged ver 60, I can only say thank you for bringing a small piece of sanity to this whole discussion. To be labelled as "the problem" is offensive, and does nothing to improve the bigger picture nationally, in fact I would argue it fosters disunity and suspicion of those around us. I love that you use facts and data (what a novel idea!) to show the real situation. Please keep up this great work!!!

Absolutely well said John! Totally agree that this crazy hysteria against all men isnt actually the fact , and this proves it. Thankyou . Jasper🙏

Albo - his Voice failed and now he's clutching at straws. Australia's worst PM by a country mile.

💯. And of course they never mention the men that are killed by women, or the fact that there is not a SINGLE emergency accommodation Placement in NSW for a bloke leaving a violent relationship

I'm a cancer survivor and when I found another lump I was concerned. I let my now ex know that I wouldn't go through another 8 months of grueling chemo if the survival rate wasn't great, and if that was the case I would self remove when the pain got too much. Relationship Australia labelled that manipulative domestic violence and encouraged her to leave and apply for a DVO. Never laid a hand on a male, let alone a female, but that didn't matter. It's not just the government, it's everything.

Great words, I believe that the majority off men are in total agreement off the miss information.

Good to see you speaking out against brainwashing the community to buy into BS. Thanks John.

How many men commit suices after an intimate abuses them mentally over a long period of time

I've never liked or commented on any of your videos but this deserves both. Well done for the accuracy.

Bravo. We don't have to put up with this garbage anymore.

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Every society is like a sinking Titanic. Women and children to the life-rafts and all the men go overboard.

Excellent and factual video. Thanks John and congratulations Australia. We are doing a great job. But it is worrying, how all this false hatred is brewing.

The problem is that the .GOV is EXEMPT from their miss and diss information bill.

It'll never be enough, as there is always more power to be taken from victimhood.

I'm a divorced father of 2 daughter's, got treated like crap by everyone involved in my divorce. At the end of the day I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to my daughter's and surely a lot of fathers would feel the same way. So how can you judge all men for that evil few.

A lady friend on mine was a Family Law barrister, and is now a Magistrate. She told me that so many times where she had represented a woman in a divorce case, she felt like slapping them across the face because of their attitude toward their ex. She said more often than not they would not settle a case and used the children as a lever to force the father to agree to their terms of settlement. Of course no one is advocating violence in these situations, but clean a man out financially and restrict access to his kids and sadly some men will react accordingly. I know with my own experience, there were thoughts that went through my mind that weren't good. Fortunately I wasn't the type of person who would act that out, but some men are.

The last time I checked, ignoring someone is considered domestic violence by these stupid grifters. It's hard to know the rate of real violence given that everything is "violence" these days.

mate, totally agree with every word. my son was a victim of domestic violence from his bi polar partner, he was taken away in the back of a police car when she attacked him after he came home from work, the restraining order was placed on him, I've worked with other men that has been through similar experience. How do we get to get the government to take men's pain seriously. Young girls regularly commit violence against bust drivers, there is so much female violence. I'm so sick of being labelled violent just because I'm male. I guess the fact that we have no ministers for men shows the government really don't care about us. So much support for women, nothing for men. We seriously need you for prime minister. ABC news is endless women's stories, so over it. This is your best video yet, how do we get the government to take men seriously?

well said my man, you are my new hero!. Other misinformation is pay gap, child support compliance, male privilege, and the patriarchy.

Orwells 1984 is now is now a policy document. A few years ago it was stated by a judge that the definition of "domestic violence" should be expanded. The domestic violence industry now embedded as official bureaucracy can only do one thing a bureaucratic systems do. Expand. Grow larger, employ more people, find more problems to justify a growing budget. Conveniently we forget about the violence perpetrated on us the last 4 years.

Totally agree John, this is all political, and women have never been better off and safer . .

Nothing to do with me...I identify as a rosella parrot.

Keep the bastards honest John!!!!

Thank you for taking this sensitive subject into hand.

These statistics should be tabled in Federal Parliament.

Bring back RANT John. At a time when David McBride is getting jailed for serving the country, the people need some figurative uppercuts to bring them back to reality.

How about all the women saying they would rather be stuck in the woods with a bear instead of a man

Thank you, sir, for your time and effort. Top notch reporting here. Facts-driven and unbiased analysis. "Bad but getting better. Better but still bad"

Exactly what I was thinking........seems the 'Ministry of Truth' is alive and well in 'The Bush Capital of Wokeness'.

Wonderful presentation John, thank you. Tony. 72 yrs young

Totally agree with everything you’ve said John, I’m sick of getting blamed as a collective what a few do to others. I have worked in corrections for over 12 years and now the state government is now making every one of us complete mandatory domestic violence training.

The inconvenient truth to make the Government look good and the budget all hoping to get another go.

Sadly male unliving themselves from domestic stress is never talked about, which is at least 10 times more likely.

Good to see someone sticking up for the majority of men that's also been victims of domestic violence, thankyou John

In full support of you here John! Thankyou for not being scared to post a video on this.

43 yo white male here.. thanks mate 👍

Thanks John, expressed perfectly and you didn't even touch on male suicide due to family courts decisions.
