Audrey White was a British shopworker whose activism led to breakthrough legislation on sexual harassment in the United Kingdom.
As days passed, it generated more interest and attracted more protesters such as dockers, car workers, staff from unemployed centres, and local activists.
The TUC credited the protest and her activism as one of the precursors of a later amendment to the Sex Discrimination Act of 1975, where the legal definition of harassment was set out in law.
[1][2] The strike also contributed to the discourse of related issues involving political activists such as the law against picketing and the police's use of strip searching.
In 2022, White was expelled from UK's Labour Party for confronting Sir Keir Starmer, accusing him of right-wing policies as well as his purge of left-wing members.
