Hate speech and the promotion of gender violence and abuse through male media is simply not being tackled as it is seen as a male freedom issue, regardless of how it impacts on mine and my daughters health and safety and millions like us. Thats why feminism is on the rise, because political process is redundant for women, its all about the men.

1) in the Euro-elections the countries electing their MEPs by STV, one elected the highest proportion of women (Malta), and the other (Eire) came 2nd=. Also Northern Ireland elected 2/3 women MEPs.
2) nominations to the “Lords”
