Western sisters, imagine being lashed 74 times just for your choice of clothing! That’s the reality for Roya Heshmati in Iran- she faced brutal punishment simply for refusing the compulsory hijab. Let this remind us: our freedoms are not universal. We must not turn away! #WomanLifeFreedom #RoyaHeshmati

Wish id never watched Dispatches. I'm now in a stinking mood. The biggest scroungers in the UK aren't the disabled, it's isn't those needing UC tops ups and its certainly not nurses, train drivers etc. It's the royal sodding family.

In Iran, a student harassed by her university’s morality police over her “improper” hijab didn’t back down. She turned her body into a protest, stripping to her underwear and marching through campus—defying a regime that constantly controls women’s bodies. Her act is a powerful reminder of Iranian women’s fight for freedom. Yes we use our bodies like weapons to fight back a regime that kills women for showing their hair.
This happened at Tehran’s Science and Research University She has since been arrested by the authorities.
Be her voice.
