Pay Equi-Tea today

Sorry this is going to be a very basic post, as I'm on my home computer and it is painfully slow.

The Pay Equi-Tea protest was on at Parliament today, to highlight the continuing issue of the gap between average hourly pay rates for men and women. Here's a few linkies:

Launch release for the Pay Equity Coalition on Scoop.
TV3 coverage on their midday news (thanks to Liz for emailing me with this)
NZEI Te Riu Roa photos from the protest
Sue Moroney's media statement on Pansy Wong's response to questioning about what the Government is doing to assist the 15,000+ women who lost their jobs in the last three months. (thanks to TEU)

Feel free to add more links in comments as you find them :-)
