As Somalia is holding parliamentary elections this

As Somalia is holding parliamentary elections this week, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General @aminajmohammed visited the country on Sunday to express her solidarity with Somali women’s calls for full and equal participation in political life.

“Somalia achieved a milestone at its last elections in 2016/17 with 24 per cent of parliamentary seats filled by women, and I am hopeful that the country will build on this by expanding women’s participation even further,” Mohammed said.

#WomenAgainstRape and @womenofcolour_gws are organ

#WomenAgainstRape and @womenofcolour_gws are organising a protest against the proposed Police, Crime, Sentencing & Courts Bill while it's debated in the UK’s House of Lords tomorrow.

The bill has attracted nationwide demonstrations since it was first announced due to the draconian measures it contains.

“The police don’t need more powers. They need to be accountable to our communities and use the powers they have to protect women and children against violent men, including police officers, instead of criminalising us, especially if we are working-class and of colour.”

If the bill passes, the UK will no longer be a functioning democracy, according to research by @the_99percent_organisation.
