Imagine if BBC spent as much time on the dangers of climate collapse as they do on immigration. Imagine the public response when they realise what the real danger is to our children & who is causing it. Instead of anger at refugees there’d be anger at oil companies, media bosses, politicians & BBC.

The experience of the vast majority of the women on this planet is that as a teenager they got creeped on by (at least one) adult male stranger - just a great ‘welcome to the adult world’.
To not know/care about this is one massive self-own. Being female involves much more than ‘feeling’ like one
