The Fawcett Society is today publishing research showing that the majority (60%) of women in workplaces across the UK either don’t know what their male colleagues earn, or believe they are earning less than men who are doing the same job. The report is being released to mark Equal Pay Day (14th November 2019) – the day in the year when women effectively start to work for free – and suggests that unlawful pay discrimination may be more widespread than previously feared. Fawcett’s new report ‘Why Women Need a Right to Know’ calls for a change in law to give women a “Right to Know” what a male colleague or colleagues earn if they suspect there is pay discrimination. The polling shows that eight in ten (79%) people support the change, saying they agree that a woman should be able to find out whether she is being paid less than a man for equal work. That includes three-quarters (74%) of men. Support our call for change by signing the petition today: change.org/righttoknow

‪WE made some noise in the House of Commons today. Allowing potential perpetrators of harassment & violence to vote on the crime they committed tells women & other potential victims that excusing male violence is more important than their safety ‪https://www.womensequality.org.uk/gw_report‬

XR Thanet staged a colourful and lively demonstration outside Thanet District Council's (TDC) Margate headquarters to support a motion brought jointly by the Labour and Green parties to declare a climate emergency. And, satisfyingly and much to most observer's surprise, Thanet councillors – including independents and Conservatives – voted unanimously in favour of the motion, for TDC to go carbon neutral by 2030 and promote policies that enhance the district's sustainability and resilience. Helped along by a four-strong band of drummers, XR Thanet and other campaigners, including Thanet Trees, created a buoyant and positive atmosphere outside the council offices in Cecil Square. This video gives a flavour of events in and outside the council chamber.
