Are you subscribing to the War On Women newsletter?
Don't just get angry, join the resistance!
The War on Women is a daily newsletter which identifies a problem, and provides a quick action everyone can do to push back. Most of the actions, such as signing petitions, donating to crowdfunders and submitting evidence to consultations will be time sensitive, but below are some examples of ongoing issues and actions we recommend you complete.Â
As well as problems and actions, we publish detailed updates from the Irish, Welsh and Scottish Resistance, good news stories, and anything else that may be useful, such as this brilliant bank of resources one of our friends has collated.Â
If you have any comments or suggestions, you can send them to waronwomen@protonmail.ch

Just sent an email to Macmillan nurses on their eradication of the word woman in the information they produce on cervical cancer. The newsletter is a great way to help me do my bit for the cause, however small.
Yes, unless we take some action it's just a sewing circle. If you worry about signing your name, just put that on the end of your letter. "I wish I could sign my name but I'm afraid to because women are being beaten up over their point of view of their own lives." Or some such. And never never be rude, or bombastic. I can tell you they just refuse to read or count those letters. Always express gratitude for their work, if possible.
