This book examines the phenomenon of sexual harassment in the UK Parliament and efforts to tackle it. The volumeâs in-depth research unveils a political culture where sexual transgressions thrive. Its intersectional feminist perspective furthermore highlights multiple systems of gendered oppression perpetuating inequality. Britainâs experience is viewed against the global #MeToo movement and Hollywoodâs Weinstein sex scandal. The book identifies ways to redress the status quo and challenges ahead, including a gender power gap, misuse of non-disclosure agreements to silence victims, and misogynistic organisational cultures.
