I was listening to Radio 4 (Womens Hour) yesterday and heard about the ‘Ban Page 3’ petition, courtesy of one female activist/author – Lucy-Anne Holmes. Sometimes I get the feeling that I am a bit visionary. I tend to ‘anticipate’ a lot of things before they become a trend. Rather annoying friends who have known […]
