Really powerful speech from #JCWIL grad Marie Tidball MP - one of many striking #IWD speeches in Parliament this week showing why equality and diversity in representation matters.
Dr Marie Tidball MP@MarieTidball
I was anorexic from when I was 14. During my #IWD speech, I read passages about that experience, which I wrote 20 years ago, whilst recovering from my last major surgery. Sex, relationships & disability remain a taboo, with many disabled women facing the same anguish today.

Her biographer @NanSloane joins us to explore her life and legacy.

Sharing this hugely important piece by LWN sister and patron @abenaopp on the true impact of endometriosis and fibroids - and why it's crucial women are taken seriously when seeking support 🙏
Abena Oppong-Asare MP@abenaopp
For decades, women with severe period pain and heavy bleeding have been dismissed by doctors. But for millions, it’s conditions like endometriosis or fibroids going undiagnosed. We must start taking women’s pain seriously. My piece in @DailyMirror 👇🏾 mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…
