Kent Labour Women

Campaigning women from Kent Constituency Labour Parties. Nasty women, girly swots, big girls blouses etc

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Parliament may be shutting down but our campaigners aren’t, Kent Labour Women are gearing up for the GE of a lifetime, women of Kent, tweet us your campaigns, your candidates, your protests, your petitions and we’ll share the great work that’s happening across our county.

@RosieDuffield1 My boys ages 7 and 10 smell like angels and have learned about consent and respecting women and themselves since they were babies. I suspect that the commons and this government smells of privilege, entitlement, misogyny and rape culture which is a different smell from boy.

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Thank you for speaking up @RosieDuffield1 🌹very brave

[BBC Politics @BBCPolitics]

"When they ask you out, they don't present their rage... they don't threaten, criticise, control, yell"

MPs applaud and comfort Labour's Rosie Duffield, as she shares her own experience of being in an abusive relationship

Kent’s only Labour MP @RosieDuffield1 👏🏻

[Labour for Free Movement @labfreemvmt]

Thank you to @RosieDuffield1 for her kind endorsement of our motion, which was passed by her local Labour group in Canterbury 👇🌹😁 #Lab19 #LabourConference2019

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Well done Elisha

[Dartford Labour @Dartford_Labour]

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

How’s everyone’s conference going?

[Katey @katey_pugh]

Conference Day 1 was genuinely amazing!! Thanks @DawnButlerBrent for taking a selfie with me!!

[Rosie Duffield MP @RosieDuffield1]

Across the globe today people will be taking #ClimateAction and demanding that we take the #ClimateEmergency as seriously as we need to. It is urgent, there is no spare, back-up planet! #schoolstrike4climate

[Frances O'Grady @FrancesOGrady]

Unions will support the fight against climate change to help protect the planet.

And we'll make sure that workers' voices are at the heart of the transition.

Solidarity with those taking action today, and well done to the young people leading the way.

#ClimateStrike

[Medway Young Labour @MedwayYL]

Our members are looking forward to joining young people from around the country at tomorrow's #ClimateStrike in London!

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Who else is striking today?

[Clare Connerton @clarelucy]

Strike day. @LizardBailey has been a poster making machine. The kids are excited to make their voices heard. We can’t do our jobs if the government won’t do theirs. See you on the streets #YouthStrike4Climate

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Solidarity from Kent comrades

[Welsh Labour Students @LlafurMyfyrwyr]

CW: Rape, sexual assault, violence against women.

Endless solidarity to @Emily4Aberconwy. So many women in politics are threatened with and face violence, just for existing. Too many examples of incredible activists like Emily being put in danger (1/3) https://t.co/qbUgRJ8tEy

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

My heart. It’s @EmilyBagnall99 Canterbury CLP’s Youth Officer bringing hope at @CCCUStudents Freshers Fair ❤️❤️❤️

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Yes @EmilyThornberry. And #JFC @jeremycorbyn of course 😉

[Islington Labour 🌹 #OnYourSide @IslingtonLabour]

Whenever the General Election comes, we're delighted that our amazing local MPs @jeremycorbyn & @EmilyThornberry have been unanimously reselected as @UKLabour's Islington candidates. We'll be giving them all our support to ensure they can continue to make a difference #ForTheMany

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Care responsibilities stop women participating in local politics. Would you introduce this in your own CLP? DM if you want the motion or the policy

[Clare Connerton @clarelucy]

I’m also presenting a policy we developed to reimburse members for the cost incurred for adult or child care to attend meetings where the cost is a barrier to participation. Care responsibilities disproportionately affect women so I hope this gesture will help @Labour4C

[Clare Connerton @clarelucy]

Really proud to be bringing this motion on sexual harassment forward to Canterbury @Labour4C’s AMM tonight - it’s also going forward to a bunch of other Kent CLP’s, if you want a copy DM me. #believewomen #MeToo #labourtoo

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Just heard head of KCC’s Paul Carter on @BBCr4today saying all will be fine for Kent in the event of no deal. Our own @Charlotte4Dover knows that is absolute nonsense - no deal will hit Dover and Kent hard

[Charlotte Cornell 🌹✍️ @CharloCornell]

HGV delays of up to 2.5 days at Dover! This government have completely FAILED to prepare Kent and Dover in particular for leaving the E.U.

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

Canterbury is not conservative. @RosieDuffield1 @Labour4C is our MP

[Dawn Butler ✊🏾💙 @DawnButlerBrent]

Sit in!!!

@labourlewis @RachaelMaskell @LizMcInnes_MP @RuthGeorge6 @ChiOnwurah @MarshadeCordova

So many on our side stood up to Boris Johnson and his bullies.

They called us names, and they played their games.

Our democracy is not for them to trash.

#peoplevsJohnson

[Kent Labour Women @LabourKent]

@HackneyAbbott we stand with you against this government and against the lifetime of sexist racist vitriol you’ve had to endure.
