Happy #InternationalWomensDay to all the International Women out there.

(...and don't forget, if your feminism isn't intersectional and trans inclusive, Mother WomensDay won't bring you any presents...)

Just when you think the absurdity of victim blaming could not possibly go any further, here is a Police Commissioner openly blaming Sarah Everard for what happened to her on BBC radio https://t.co/brN6rRSf2q #FixTheSystemNotTheWomen

We believe there’s a #StarInEveryChild. A happy childhood means a child thrives and their star shines brightly. But 4.3 million UK children have a childhood overshadowed by poverty. The pandemic has made matters worse. Help us stand up for their futures: https://t.co/KpgaLo39sN
