London this Sunday!

At about 1pm on Sunday 27th June Kellie Jay Keen ("Posie Parker") is going to stand outside the New Zealand embassy with a stepladder, a loudhailer and a banner to protest that Laurel Hubbard has denied a deserving sportswoman a place in the Olympics. And will probably steal a woman's medal.

It would be great if people who care about women's sports could go along to support her.

You won’t miss us as you come into the park. The crowd is building.

I may have misjudged my journey times! On the tube still!

NonnyMouse1337 · 25/06/2021 21:20

Wish I could be there. Good luck to Posie and everyone else attending the protest.

BlancheB · 25/06/2021 21:04

Posie is awesome! Good on her.

okeydokeywokeyblokey · 25/06/2021 17:16

Also not in UK but would love to be there. Posie is one of the women I'd credit with the turning of the tides. Always grateful to the many women who have brought some positive change.

corkernewyorker · 24/06/2021 15:36

Good for Posie. If I was in the UK I'd stand there with her (and you lovely lot). No other fucker is standing up for us. Together we are stronger.

Datun · 24/06/2021 15:29

Good for her.

@somethinginoffensive

Definitely looking forward to meeting some of you. Is there a way of recognising mumsnetters or will I just have to ask everyone?
We need a secret handshake or something, or to wear something that points us out as Mumsnetters, (a viper/snake charm of some kind?)

Either way, I'm going to this one, which I'm really excited about. Grin

Such a bloody awesome thread.

Got some cream for the detractors who received BURNS Grin

Well wishes to the women who will be there.

Posie says she'll be at Speaker's Corner for 12.00/12.30pm 👍

I hope Orf1abc will be getting in touch with the Trans Pride organisers who ARE having march on saturday, so presumably will not be at the austerity march!

After the revolution Orf.

Alternista · 22/06/2021 22:18

Good. For. Her.

SweetGrapes · 22/06/2021 22:06

Posie is great at this. I've been to one of her protests a couple of years ago. Sadly I can't make it this time.

AdjustableAssholeSettings · 22/06/2021 21:10

I can't come but wish I could!

ItsNotNormalLove · 22/06/2021 21:09

I'll be at the Hyde Park meet with my (adult) DD. Not sure if we'll also go to the embassy but may do.

namechangedontfireme · 22/06/2021 21:06

@Orf1abc

Won't all the feminists be at the anti austerity march? Austerity has had a vastly disproportionate impact on women, as have government policies around the pandemic.

'Posie' needs to reevaluate her priorities.

This smacks of men telling women they can’t vote for X political party because of X issue.

We are whole human beings and we can care about whatever the hell we want.
