The Homeless Period: My 100

So here I am starting another article with George Osborne and my vagina. I'm not really sure how I got here, I really didn't intend for these two things to collide, blog related or otherwise but yet here I am, sitting at my laptop talking politics and pussy once again. Since I wrote that article, I've had a lot of people contact me and show their support by signing the petition set up by Laura Coryton. I think its fair to say the general consensus is that the tampon tax should be stopped and with the petition now exceeding 300,000 signatures hopefully we are well on our way to seeing that happen.

Through that piece of writing I became aware of The Homeless Period petition, a campaign to give homeless shelters an allowance to buy sanitary products. Currently, charities aren't receiving any extra help with this and they are dipping into donated funds to purchase them (inc. paying the luxury tax of course).

George Osborne Is Taxing My Vagina

George Osborne is literally taxing my vagina, and I voted for him, the bastard.

Maybe I should have voted Labour, in particular for Stella Creasy who addressed the Commons last week about vagina added tax and forced some old, pompous guys to say the terrible word 'tampon'. She seems like the kind of girl I could get on well with, even if she doesn't like Jaffa Cakes.
But anyway its too late for all that now, I've just got to carry on living in a country where my natural and involuntary biological body processes are deemed as cosmetic and optional.

It is after all, terribly extravagant of me to menstruate.
