No Means No


Thousands marched in central London yesterday as part of the international Slutwalk campaign, in response to the Canadian policeman's comments that women should stop dressing like sluts to avoid victimisation and rape.


No means No. The way we dress is not a reason that should ever be accepted as an excuse for violence.

Crimes Against Women

A new reminder that this was the area where the infamous Jack the Ripper murders took place.

Never solved, it still baffles those who investigate the events in Victorian London.

I nearly missed this small work that sits at footpath level and is about 6 inches high.
Crimes against women are making headlines around the world again at present. The ex-head of the IMF and the British Minister of Justice who seems confused as to what rape is.
