We are really looking forward to this next meeting. We have such a great panel lined up and ticket prices to suit different budgets. Thank you to everyone who has already paid the solidarity price to help make this event more accessible to all. ...
RT @JoPhoenix1: Hugely honoured to be asked to speak. If it is necessary to incarcerate women (and we can question that presumption) then the single sex exemption enshrined in the Equality Act 2010 MUST be applied. @OU_GCN https://t.co/Aaw4v5...
RT @RichardJGarside: Delighted that I and @CrimeandJustice colleagues are collaborating with @Womans_Place_UK on this event: A woman's place is not in prison. Some great speakers lined up. And it will be in actual real life too. ...

RT @cathydevine56: @Womans_Place_UK @EdwardJDavey @EdwardJDavey just doesn't see women does he? He cannot see that women say no to males in female spaces. All he can see is Boris Johnson. A male listening only to other males.
