Dozens of women marched through central London on International Women’s Day to protest women’s freedom in Iran.
British-Iranian women marched through the centre of London wearing red cloaks and white bonnets, similar to those worn by female characters in Margaret Atwood's dystopian novel, The Handmaid's Tale.
The protesters, organised by the group Stage of Freedom, marched from Parliament Square to the Iranian embassy in Kensington on Friday March 8 chanting “women’s rights are human rights” and “my body my choice”.
