Maybe he can learn to read. The Constitution would be a good place to start

This Valentine’s Day, I’m joining @centenaryaction.bsky.social in celebrating women MPs! ❀️ I want to celebrate @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social because she fights so hard to call attention to and end violence against women and girls. Thank you Jess.

Good meeting with the Police, the County Council, the Police and Crime Commissioner's Office and @womensinstitute.bsky.social to discuss the plans to reduce violence against women and girls in Warwickshire. Good progress made. Looking forward to working together in the future.

A timely reminder. Women don't "neutralize" anything. We complement. Together we are better. I wonder how Zuckerberg explained his comments to his wife.

Thanks for highlighting - these are very encouraging results. I will encourage my local police force to follow the pilot and take part as soon as is practicable.

And well done.

Ice Jam Flash Flood in Norway #flood #nature #tsunami #flashflood  #insane

This is amazing, an 'ice tsunami' in Norway.

It is so cold that the river freezes from the bottom and forms a dam. Eventually that will break (in this case 20km upstream) and this happens.

Well done - this is a little known unintended consequence of the law which I first came across through work @womensinstitute.bsky.social did to promote Women's Aid whole system approach manifesto in advance of last year's general election.

Elon Musk is starting to risk getting Jess Phillips killed. She's been safeguarding minister for six months. She oversaw nothing relating to the rape gangs. As an opposition MP she was one of the most prominent campaigners for the victims.

What he's doing is a travesty.

We stand with Gisèle Pelicot, who has endured the most appalling abuse and shown great bravery in waiving all anonymity to bring her abusers, including her own husband, to account for their crimes.
This case has put a spotlight on the male violence against women that remains endemic. We continue to call for an to end this violence so that all women and girls are safe. 
Justice is now being done, and Gisèle's dignity, courage, and sense of duty to all and other survivors have shone like a beacon for women everywhere. 
We hope she now achieves peace and resolution.

Yes, we heard the very inspiring @nazirafzal.bsky.social, of Starmer's team, talk on this at @womensinstitute.bsky.social at Royal Albert Hall last year. Don't underestimate the courage it takes to go after these gangs (threats to family etc). Musk should get his facts right before posting 🀐.

Big love Massive Attack for yesterday’s amazing Act 1.5 in Bristol. Huge achievement + incredible headline show too.

Thanks @anandmenon.bsky.social Nazir Afzal gave a heart-rending yet inspiring speech to the June annual meeting of the Women's Institute. His passion for ending violence against women and girls shone. A spontaneous standing ovation from 5000 members at the Albert Hall - and we're no easy audience!
