Agree. It's about standing with us - more than 50% of the population in the face of this crap.

Signed. There's one parliamentary term ahead of the GE, King's Speech due. Time for this to be front and central.

Excellent video, it's hard to miss the pattern and the spittle flecked raging nutjobbery.

I also do not like the 'defend us'. I don't want defending. I want equality under the law.

Not a bunch of mumbling, politically captured blokes and their handmaidens who think it's fair enough really that men give women a slap sometimes when they dare to say no to being used as walking resources/sex aids.

Look, Sadiq came up with the Maate thing. He can’t have ALL the MVAWG strategies.

Yes, I did just laugh at the idea of him trying to implement said “technique” with a load of Black Pampers 😂

But maate doesn't apply cos they're not men after all so it doesn't apply to the special ones. They're going to have to face up to what they are allowing to go on.

I've also posted it on the Petitions and Activism board.

Sadiq Khan tells GLAMOUR he wants men and boys to call each other out over misogynist language

Hard-hitting video. Indeed, this violent rhetoric and behaviour is nothing to be proud of. Though I think the ‘will you defend us?’ towards the end is a bit too pleading - I think I would have preferred ‘why the f* are you ok with this?’ …

I get the feeling there's probably an earlier edit of this that had why the fuck are you OK with this? at the end. I'm guessing though they've gone for the more diplomatic approach in the hope of actually getting them to watch it!
