A huge moment in history

Witnessing a moment in history – the first statue of a women in parliament Square. The square was surrounded in WSPU and NUWSS flags which was a really nice touch. In the enclosure, we could walk directly up to the statue covered in a black cloth. What an exciting day, hearing from the Prime Minister, Caroline Crialdo-Perez, Sadiq khan. Hearing poetry and a song from Sylvia the Musical. It was a real goosebump moment when the cloth was lifted and the statue was unveiled. It was then swamped by everyone wanting a snap. I especially loved the fact I was stood next to the great grand nieces of Millicent who had travelled from South Africa and Ireland to be at the unveiling.
