It’s not for nothing that the temperance movements were largely supported by women (including the suffragettes ) , socialists and Methodists amongst others. Pre WW1 alcohol abuse and consequent domestic abuse were national scandals . Then came the wartime restrictions on pub opening and a consequent decline in consumption per head .Alcohol has done vastly more societal damage than any other controlled substance yet it’s available every where.
As the CEO of a domestic abuse charity, I often encounter misconceptions surrounding the root causes of domestic violence.
Let’s be clear to start.
Football does not cause abuse. Perpetrators choices do.
Alcohol does not cause abuse. Perpetrators choices do.

Its suggested that any stressful situation can trigger violence in someone prone to it
. Didn't the "great and good" used to think it was mainly a problem among the "lower orders"?
