AC 2.1-Compare campaigns for change. [10 marks]Upskirting/ Background/purpose
A sort of voyeurism known as "upskirting," which is now illegal and punishable by
law, is when someone uses a camera or mobile phone to take pictures or videos of
someone underneath their clothes. In June 2018, the Voyeurism (Offenses) Act was
introduced, and took effect in 2019. In July 2017, a man placed a camera in between
Ms. Martin's legs as she waited to see The Killers perform at the British Summer Time
music festival in London. Despite that she had reported to the police, the case was
dismissed because it was not a criminal offense. Later, she made a Facebook post,
which quickly went viral. She also wrote about her experience for the BBC.
Key figures
Gina Martin campaigned for the law to be changed after a man took a picture up her
skirt. Lib Dem MP Wera Hobhouse later on picked up the campaign. She brought the
private members bill to parliament. However, the bill was blocked by a Tory MP.
Luckily, Ms Martin secured government backing on 15 July and it was approved in
the house of lords and the formality of royal assent to become law.
Media support
Martin gained social public support very early on in her campaign by posting on
Facebook and this allowed her to progress excessively. Many newspapers and news
websites had given the new law attention and called it a progressive action. An
online petition had also begun where it called for police to reopen the case and
achieved over 50,000 signatures. Martin wrote to the BBC to express her experience.
Success
The campaign has been a great success and has allowed for many victim’s justice.
Considering that it became a law it has achieved its aim, it also allows people of all
genders and ages to report.
Negatives
This campaign has no clear negatives at it has achieved its aim to its fullest. The only
problem is that offenders still upskirt despite knowing of its consequences.
