Brilliant!

That made me smile.

I wonder if the camera operator was a vagina-haver.

PacifyLulu · 22/06/2021 06:36

What is it? The video won’t load for me

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeep · 22/06/2021 06:39

It's a suffragette statue with ribbons tied on!

Look at the background!

sashh · 22/06/2021 06:41

@PacifyLulu it's the statue of Emeline Pankhurst in Manchester, someone was fastened the three colour ribbons to her outstretched wrist and a flower in her other hand.

Excellent! Guessing the international cabal of lesbians at work Or Volvo owners planning to commit actual violence through haberdashery.

WarriorN · 22/06/2021 07:08

Fabulous!

WorkingItOutAsIGo · 22/06/2021 07:29

That news report is not a safe space!

Also interesting to use a suffragette in a report on NS. Clever all round.

SpringCrocus · 22/06/2021 07:55

Loved it!

Love it.

Do you think the reporter, camera person etc knew what the ribbons are all about? Or did they just think it was a pretty shot?

PaleBlueMoonlight · 22/06/2021 09:13

Wonderful

MrsOvertonsWindow · 22/06/2021 09:46

Yay! I also loved the footage of the bus company Bullocks - at first glance I thought that was what you were talking about sashh
