Watch Time’s Up Women’s March In London<\/b>
\nThousands of women<\/a> have taken to the streets in London to say \u201cTime\u2019s Up\u201d on issues including sexual harassment and the gender pay gap, a day after huge crowds\u00a0gathered for marches across the US.<\/p>\n

The march, which began on Richmond Terrace, opposite Downing Street at 11am, is the latest in a series of rallies that have seen women<\/a> in at least 34 countries protest this weekend.<\/p>\n

The march marks the anniversary of the Women\u2019s March movement which was sparked by the US Presidential election victory of Donald Trump and comes as organisers urge people to come together to say\u00a0\u201cTime\u2019s Up\u201d in honour of the #MeToo movement.<\/p>\n

Women\u2019s rights activist Helen Pankhurt,\u00a0great granddaughter of Emmeline Pankhurst and journalist and author Reni Eddo-Lodge are to speak at the event along with MP Stella Creasy and Sophie Walker.<\/p>\n

Around three thousand people registered their interest in the march on a\u00a0 Facebook page for the event, while more than 8,000 said they were interested.<\/p>\n

A statement from organisers reads:<\/p>\n

One year on, we are coming together to say Time\u2019s Up.<\/p>\n

Time\u2019s Up on gender based violence, sexual harassment and abuse. Time\u2019s Up on the systematic and politically motivated underfunding of the services survivors depend on. Time\u2019s Up on victimizing survivors and allowing abusers to avoid accountability. Time\u2019s Up on the misogynistic abuse of women<\/a> on social media. Time\u2019s Up on the culture that tells men<\/a> they are entitled to women<\/a>\u2019s bodies.<\/p>\n

Time\u2019s Up on bigotry and prejudice – scapegoating Refugees and Muslims. Time\u2019s Up on racially motivated violence and harassment. Time\u2019s Up on deportations, inhuman detention centres and human trafficking. Time\u2019s Up on islamophobia, anti-semitism, transphobia, homophobia and ableism. Time\u2019s Up on the under representation of marginalised groups in politics and in the media.<\/p>\n

Time\u2019s Up on the economic oppression of women<\/a>. Time\u2019s Up on the gender pay gap that sees women<\/a> paid less than their male<\/a> counterparts for the same job. Time\u2019s Up on the cruel and ideological universal credit system which plunges millions into deeper poverty. Time\u2019s Up on austerity, a policy which serves to worsen the country\u2019s economy and disproportionately impacts women<\/a>. Time\u2019s Up on the needless deaths from benefit cuts and sanctions.<\/p>\n

Time\u2019s Up on controlling the bodies of either women<\/a> or anyone who was assigned female<\/a> at birth. Time\u2019s Up on telling women<\/a> what to wear. Time\u2019s Up on Burka Bans and the phobia of Hijabs. Time\u2019s Up on body shaming and fatphobia. Time\u2019s Up on menstrual poverty and taboo. Time\u2019s Up on the unequal provision of abortion services. Time\u2019s Up on the policing of trans<\/a> women<\/a>\u2019s bodies.<\/p>\n

Time\u2019s Up on the climate of profit over people. We want#Justice4Grenfell. Time\u2019s Up on climate change denial and the destruction of the environment.\u00a0#ClimateChangeIsReal.<\/p>\n

We are coming together to pledge that we are going to make change in big and small ways. We will stand side by side, once again, in solidarity with our sisters, brothers and siblings around the world. Together we are strong and if we all work for a better world then time is really up for oppressors of women<\/a>.
