DD is in Edinburgh and will be going along if she’s free. She’s krav maga trained and used to dealing with male troublemakers at feminist protests, but I expect a good police presence will make her intervention unnecessary.
I’m an hour and a half away by car, but have commitments until after lunch, so would get there too late.

Just giving this a bump in case anything missed it.

It's really important there is a big turnout so we can't be dismissed as fanatic fringe feminists.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 06/03/2020 16:52

Anything?! Anyone Blush

I'm a bloke but I fully support this. I think women are getting a shocking time at the moment.
Good luck all.

I'm getting excited but I don't have a placard. I'll shout or sing or something.

Thanks itsniceoopnorth!

marvellousnightforamooncup there will be placards available that you can use. Hopefully songs and speeches too.

I'm getting excited too. Smile

Everyone please come along if you can! We need a show of solidarity and numbers.

Fingers crossed for the babysitting plans!

Susan Dalgety has a fitting conclusion to her article.

There is a lot of marching still to do, sisters, and it starts this afternoon outside the Scottish Parliament at 2pm, when women from across Scotland will demonstrate for their right to be, well, women.

Good luck everyone.

Agh! Just popped in to Starbucks as I’m a bit early to find they have mermaid cookies and donate 50p to Mermaids for each one. Looking for somewhere else for my coffee ... Are other people around yet?

Ereshkigalangcleg · 07/03/2020 13:28

There in spirit, hope it's a great day Thanks

Aw, from the pics on Twitter, it looks great. Good turnout, especially for such short notice.

Brilliant!
Thank you all who made it Star

Covering up the demo details is hilarious- the cat is out of the bag once you’ve seen it in the paper Confused

For anyone there, who was the woman in the big hat who gave the incredible speech about "cis"? She was amazing!
