Pleased to have worked with @guardian throughout 2024 on #KilledWomenCount through @CountDeadWomen and @FemicideCensus.
Though we are reporting 80 women allegedly killed by men in UK in 2024, I know through bitter experience that is number will increase.

This week, #spycops officer Andy Coles will be questioned by the Undercover Policing Inquiry. Unique among officers who deceived women into relationships, he has flatly denied that it ever happened. What exactly did he do, & what will the Inquiry be asking him about?🧵(1/18)

Only in a year where #GiselePélicot holds 50 men who raped her to account does a rapist President get named Person of the Year (for the second time). The message is clear: misogyny rewards power, while survivors like Gisele fight to ensure #ShameMustChangeSides.

"In Germany, a woman is killed every day. That’s proof the sexism we all experience is far from ‘harmless’. The daily insults and humiliations women are subjected to here are part of a continuum of violence. When will politicians act?"

@helensteel12 giving evidence at the #spycops hearing says that women shouldn't have to worry about being raped by undercover police officers when being involved in activism.

Helen Steel pays tribute to "Rosa" and how she is dealing with the legacy of being deceived. She is crying. I am crying, most of the public gallery is crying, if you could watch this, you'd be crying. John Mitting thanks Helen for her evidence #spycops

In most workplaces, a male walking around a workplace with only a sock to cover his modesty, would be sacked on the spot. At the BBC the ‘talent’ is protected, while young women are sexually harassed and kept in fear of losing their jobs. #BBC
