Let’s make misogyny extinct! A double whammy protest to target the offices of the Lancet and Labour Party HQ

Lancet Office

Protest: Friday 8th OctoberLancet London HQ: 12:00Labour Party HQ: 15:00Women’s unique physiologies have been ignored and misunderstood by medical science throughout history, causing real world harms to 51% of the population. Our bodies have been treated like inconvenient anomalies, our biology unmentionable. Rather than reflect on the deep-rooted sexism behind such attitudes, the Lancet decided to address this historic blind spot by re-defining women as bodies with vaginas. Meanwhile the Leader of the Labour Party – one of the largest left-wing parties in Europe, said that ‘only women have cervix’s’ is something which should not be said. We say no. Enough is enough, we will not be dehumanised, and we will not be silenced! It is time to remind the dinosaurs at the heart of the British Establishment that women exist, our safety and our sex-based rights matter.The protest begins outside the Lancet HQ at 12:30. We have banners and placards and a variety of roarsome chantsAt around 2pm we will travel as a group to Labour Party HQ, aiming to arrive at 3pm. We will give out leaflets and engage politely with members of the public. There will be an opportunity at this point for women to give short speeches or perform poems if you would like to prepare anything. Also, any hand made signs would be fabulous – both for the Lancet protest and that outside Labour Party HQ. We want to create a spectacle and challenge misogyny in a positive and humours way. If you are nervous about attending you can wear a face covering, and we still need people to wear the dinosaur costumes.
