An event was held by the organisation Let Women Speak at The Mound Plaza earlier on Saturday.

The organisers explain that their movement aspires to foster a community in which all women feel empowered to speak.  “We achieve this through our free speech events, they are free to attend.  We are so proud that women across the world are using the #LetWomenSpeak hashtag as a rallying cry.”

As expected protesters countered the message of the rally with one of their own on their home-made placards. Look for #LetWomenSpeakEdinburgh on Twitter.
