A series of seven blue and black plaques have been fixed to properties where women have been murdered by a man, as part of a campaign to highlight “outdated and misogynistic” UK domestic homicide sentencing laws.

Each bespoke plaque includes the woman’s name, their lifespan and the words “killed here”, along with the sentence given to the killer and the words ‘“Murder is murder, change the law”.
