Fact #178183
When:
Short story:
In the UK's House Of Commons, Tory MP Christopher Chope blocks the progress of the Voyeurism (Offences) Bill, which was intended to make the taking and distribution of surreptitious, sexually intrusive images of women (aka upskirting) illegal. Chope's manoeuvre will so aggravate songwriter/producer Emily Underhill (aka Tusks) that she will compose the song Peachy Keen as her angry protest against its inherent sexism.

Emily Underhill : It started as a sarcastic response to the MP Christopher Chope when he blocked the recent up-skirting bill in Parliament, but quickly evolved into a song about the inherent sexism and patriarchy, which I and so many other people experience on a daily basis.
