Thank you to everyone who came to our meeting last night in spite of the braying mob outside the venue. Thank you to our wonderful panel for speaking up in such a hostile & intimidating environment. #WPUKLab19
Thanks to our organisers and helpers and the security team who kept us all safe when the police were content to stand by and watch. #WPUKLab19
Thank you to all the people who sent messages of support, who challenged the police to do more. Thank you to the person who left £200 behind the bar for us afterwards. 😊 #WPUKLab2019
We are shocked that in 2019 women meeting to discuss their rights are expected to face down this level of intimidation and threat. We will be making a formal statement later and we will be making a formal complaint to the police. #WPUKLab19
We refuse to give up and go away. The actions of the mob last night make us even more determined to stand up for women. It is clear that women cannot rely on anyone else to do it for them. #WPUKLab19
