Safety pins. Which I hadn't heard about until this afternoon.

“If you put the pin on, to me you are pledging to stand up. It can’t just be an empty gesture. You are pledging to make a difference. You could record what’s happening, you could call the police, stop the bus driver.

“Even if you feel too frightened, you can go to the person afterwards and say: ‘I’m so sorry, is there anything I can do for you?’ Even if it’s just making them a cup of tea.”

I like the idea behind those pins, but the fact that they are even needed, ANYwhere, is very aggravating and disheartening.

It is. It really is. If other people feel the way I do, it's just A Thing We Can Do—I mean, I've emailed my MP, but I don't know what else to DO and I'm seeing my country flush itself down the toilet and I feel completely helpless.

I've been disappointed with general elections, plenty of times. But this.
