Tackling the continuum of violence against women and girls can start by calling out misogynistic behaviour amongst your friends #Maaate
Great campaign from the @MayorofLondon!
If your friend’s language or behaviour was crossing a line, would you know how to step in?
My new campaign, Say #Maaate to a Mate, is a single word to stop misogynistic language in its tracks.
Get involved 👇🏽

Paint over Mickey Mouse
Burn Where the Wild Things Are
Pulverise the lego
Set fire to the Christmas tree star.
Seize all the teddies
Bury every skipping rope
Paint the walls dark brown
Abolish all hope.

“Illness is neither an indulgence for which people have to pay, nor an offence for which they should be penalised, but a misfortune, the cost of which should be shared by the community.”

It is the scene in the rear-view mirror that is truly horrifying. The British economy is in a generation-long slough of despond, a slow-burning economic catastrophe.
