An MP has said the Liberal Democrats are “determined to drive change” on domestic abuse law after recalling his childhood experiences.

Josh Babarinde, the MP for Eastbourne, told the party’s spring conference in Harrogate on Saturday that he would table an amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill to create specific offences for those guilty of domestic abuse.
