Tara seconding the composite motion on Misogyny, Extremism & the Rise of the Far Right.
Women teachers are disproportionately targeted, with increased challenges to their authority, as well as abuse and assaults.

We flounced out of the EU on the say-so of politicians who lied to us. And what a total shitshow that’s turned out to be. The polar opposite of what they promised. Now the call to flounce out of the ECHR. By the same people. Telling the same lies. Has the country been kicked in the head by a horse?

Younger generations need to know that their lives won’t get better with crypto grifts, or oppressing others. Their lives will get better by joining trade unions and forming solidarity with others. A strong trade union movement is one of the best lines of defence a country has against fascism.
