My book will finally be out on 1 May 2025, sharing my fight for women, children, and my career. My regulatory body tried —and failed to silence my criticism of a family court case. Now I’m free to write about a broken system & the changes needed. Preorder amazon.co.uk/He-Said-She-St…

I really, really hope the media are going to be very careful in how they are reporting right now. Language matters. Clarification and facts matter. Women in politics already face horrendous threats and abuse. The Jo Cox Foundation

New research from Centenary Action reveals a historic challenge: to achieve a #GenderEqualParliament by the centenary of equal suffrage in 2028, the largest ever proportional increase in women MPs is needed. We need bold, transformative action - if not now when? #Mission2028

Kicking off our event in parliament Helen Pankhurst celebrates the increase in women's representation to 40% women MPs but stresses how we still need the biggest increase in women's representation is needed to get to 50%

107 years ago the first women gained the right to vote. Since 1918 at every general election the number of men elected has outnumbered the number of women. Whilst progress has been made & we now have 263 women MPs we still need 62 more for a #GenderEqualParliament #AskHerToStand
