A protest that was organised in the wake of Sarah Everard’s murder in the UK has called for gender violence to be made a political priority.

The “socially distant standout” in Dublin was organised by ROSA (for Reproductive rights, against Oppression, Sexism & Austerity) with more due to take place later this week.
