Extract from the link above
"Unfortunately for women, though, the hoary old problems of discrimination, violence and unpaid labour are still very much with us."
It has recently been reported by the Newstateman:
We tracked 25,688 abusive tweets sent to women MPs – half were directed at Diane Abbott
“I’ve had death threats, I’ve had people tweeting that I should be hung if"they could find a tree big enough to take the fat bitch’s weight’… I’ve had rape threats…and n*gger, over and over and over again” Diane Abbott, UK MP and Shadow Home Secretary, July 2017
Disgraceful!
