At 10:30 in the morning, a woman went out for her usual run in Kent. A man on a bike came up right behind her within arms reach, she told him to move but he stayed close. She then looped the block to shake him off, and he was waiting at the bottom exactly where she'd finish. This is becoming far too frequent. Women should be able to go for a run in broad daylight without fear. @kent_police

Update here:
🚨 UPDATE 🚨 Thank you to everyone who has shared and amplified this post. @kent_police have now been in contact with me via DM asking for more details. Thank you to @GauciReports who reached out to the woman in the video and she has confirmed that officers have now visited her to take a statement. It's deeply concerning that it has taken a social media post to be shared by many for Police to take action on this. Women should not have to rely on social media pressure to get basic protection and a response. We need systemic change so these incidents are treated seriously from the start.

BTW, do not remove a major sense by wearing earbuds. I never would in public.

She can’t go that route again, he will be looking for her. Sex offenders like the element of stalking. She will need to run at a track or gym, bc of how the country has become. Nowhere is safe for women, not even the park or public street, unless you are in a group club

Yep. Sadly, women need to frequently change their routes for this reason.

If I saw a woman or a child under threat, I would step in. God help the outcome.

Where abouts in Kent was this? Scary and know that feeling well. Happens too often. We shouldn't have to live like this. 😪

Do you know where in Kent this happened. As a Kent resident I am concerned.

@GauciReports I think you have had contact with her on Insta, are you able to ask her where this was in Kent? 🙏🏻

'Men', eh? We have 'got to do better'? What are you asking for? Because that wasn't just any random 'man' was it? Is it that you don't want to actually say it? Or are you asking that real men step up and do something about the misogynistic cultures that are being imported into the country? If so, then fine, but then 'women' need to do something about those among their sex who are keeping the gates wedged open with their suicidal empathy.

When you say “men, do better” you could be a little bit more specific….

Horrible stuff...but why is it up to the men to do better?! We'd get arrested for intervening. Maybe its the gov that should do better.

Well done for posting on this I’m so glad you are ok… I used to run in the 90s… down a quiet lane in Oxford… my mum and dad were always scared when I took off… I breezed them away thinking they were too protective… I had moved abroad and ran when I came home I would not do it now… my sister has fields at the back of her home… I used to run through them … no way would I do that today It’s not OK that our freedom of movement has been curtailed in this way Get these savages out of the UK… and Europe Stay safe👍😈😬💕

‘Men do better’? This is a cultural problem which the vast majority of women actively enable at the voter booth. He’s a third world migrant. A cave man ideology. We are not the same.

“Men you’ve got to do better” how fucking dare she. It was her feminist sisters who voted for this garbage. Yet again another woman who can’t take accountability for female mistakes. Men tried to warn you dumb ass women. But was told we’re ‘racist’ or ‘mean’ or whatever. Gtfoh.

START MAKING A BIG DEAL ABOUT THESE UNWANTED ENCOUNTERS. Don’t be polite! Be rude, say get out of here, raise your voice, threaten to call someone, do anything but be tolerant!

It's moved from "We don't need men" to "Men, you've got to do better.. we need protecting" pretty damn quickly....

I would presume that she thought that it would never happen to her, and so did the poor souls who it did happen to.

Whilst I am sympathetic- the call ' men you need to better' grossly misses the point- time and time again it's white liberal women with suicidal empathy who bring this, and it's them diving in the way to protect scum when we fight back. Get out of the way if you want protection

I came out of a health centre one evening. Migrant cycled past. He looked over and I just knew, just KNEW, the fucker was going to come back. And he did, circled on the road, looking all around then did exactly this. Making little kissy/sucking noises behind me. It must STOP 🤬

Fuck right off. Stop saying "men". He is not a MAN. You voted to have this in your country so deal with it. If you let actual MEN deal with it they'd have it sorted in a matter of weeks. But you told them you know better so here we are. In shit. Thanks to women

Lumping all men into this isn't right, 'men have to do better', id say the government need to do better but nah blame all men, this won't stop until we hold the real culprits accountable.

Why it is "men have to do better" when it's clearly this one distinct type of man? Her fellow countrymen would be far less likely to do it than some accented import weasel.

Why isn't she saying the government needs to do better or the police should do better. Why isn't she advocating self defense classes.
