Great news! Cardiff's administrative court has agreed to our request for judicial review of lawless police use of #FacialRecognition. This a dangerously intrusive technology that has no place on the streets of a free, rights-respecting democracy #ResistFacialRec

Nice example of #structuralDisadvantage for #women: By not being obliged to #dressFormal, they look unimportant against the old chaps "forced" to wear uniform. contropiano.org/img/2018/04/ca…
