#TimesUp Rally London
One year on from the Women's March London, today I joined the rally at Downing Street to say Time's Up and to renew the struggle for equality and justice. I attended the rally to say Time's Up on gender-based violence, sexual harassment and abuse, systematic and politically motivated underfunding of the services survivors depend on, victimizing survivors and allowing abusers to avoid accountability. To say Time's Up on the misogynistic abuse of women on social media and on the culture that tells men they are entitled to women's bodies. Time's Up on the under representation of marginalised groups in politics and in the media. Time's Up on the economic oppression of women and the gender pay gap. Time's Up on the unequal provision of abortion services. Time's Up on islamophobia, antisemitism, transphobia, homophobia and ableism. We came together to pledge that we are going to make change in big and small ways. We will stand side by side, once again, in solidarity with our sisters, brothers and siblings around the world. Together we are strong and if we all work for a better world then time is really up for oppressors of women.
