As part of #16DaysOfActivism it’s my job as a man to remind all men that male violence against women is a men’s issue

We collectively are the root cause and the root solution to ending it.

Let’s get to work

An interesting article by the @fawcett.social on the progress the #LabourGovernment is making on equality legislation. Worth a read. Some good work done, more good work to be done too. #16DaysOfActivism https://www.fawcettsociety.org.uk/blog/labour-first-100-days-a-new-era-for-women
