Image source, @BEANIEGIGIA woman who launched a campaign against upskirting after being targeted at a festival 18 months ago has said "we did it!" after legislation was passed to make it a crime in England and Wales.
The new legislation, approved in the House of Lords and now only awaiting the formality of Royal Assent, will see offenders face up to two years in jail.
Gina Martin, 26, said the decision was "politics and society at its best".
She was waiting to watch The Killers perform at British Summer Time music festival in London's Hyde Park when a man put his phone between her legs and took pictures of her crotch.
Upskirting has been covered by legislation in Scotland since 2010.
Campaigner who wouldn't accept the status quo
Speaking after the bill was approved, Gina said: "Eighteen months ago I was upskirted at a music festival and I decided I wasn't going to brush it off.
"I was tired of 'ignoring it'. I felt this was wrong and I was astounded to learn that upskirting wasn't a sexual offence. I wanted to change this for everyone, because the least we deserve is to be able to wear what we want without non-consensual photos being taken of us."
After informing the police, Gina was shocked to discover upskirting was not a specific offence.
A few days later she posted a status update on Facebook detailing her experience. Her post went viral with other women sharing similar experiences.
