		</div><p>Campaigners have protested outside the UK premiere of film Fifty Shades Darker, saying the movie &#8220;glamorises and normalises&#8221; abuse.</p>
<p>The group, representing the 50 Shades Is Domestic Abuse Campaign, held banners near the red carpet outside the Odeon Leicester Square in central London.</p>
<p>Starring Jamie Dornan as Seattle billionaire Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson as student Anastasia Steele, the film is the follow-up to 2015&#8217;s big-screen hit Fifty Shades Of Grey and is based on the best-selling books by EL James.</p>
<p>Domestic abuse prevention expert Natalie Collins founded the campaign in 2012, and she said: &#8220;Hundreds of people are here and they&#8217;re here to celebrate a film that glamorises and normalises abusive behaviour.</p>
<p>&#8220;The huge concern with this is that it suggests that as a society we are unable to recognise abuse.&#8221;<br />
Ms Collins added: &#8220;Fifty Shades is more than just a fiction series, it is a social phenomenon.</p>
<p>&#8220;Its success evidences society-wide ignorance about abusive behaviour, normalises abusers and perpetuates damaging stereotypes about BDSM sexualities.</p>
<p>&#8220;As the recent women&#8217;s marches demonstrate, gender equality continues to be an unachievable goal, whilst powerful, abusive men gain greater power.</p>
