Millions and millions of equality-driven individuals stood together for the Women’s March across the globe in protest against the inauguration of Donald Trump.
The man who has courted controversy as diverse in range as any one politician has done before sparked the biggest protest in US history.
With around three million people taking to the streets all over America, it is impossible to ignore the message that they are sending.

The protests not only showed the scale of Trump’s opposition, but acted as a collective wake-up call using wit and creativity to make a stand.
There were so many funny, punny and intelligent signs, but here are a few of the best ones…

The absolute apathy of this one just says it all…
The protest brought people of all ages, races, genders, sexualities and life experiences together.
It is extremely touching to see women who have suffered through previous political turmoil, still standing and protesting for their human rights.

She’s not giving up…
It is important to know that this was not just women protesting, thousands of men stood alongside, supporting the fight for equality.
These two old men told the world what a feminist looks like…

Among all the puns were plenty of Star Wars, Harry Potter, Mean Girls and Game of Thrones related signs.

Some people took a different approach and spoke directly to Melania…
She just wants to talk ‘Ho to Ho’…

There were plenty of signs mocking the President’s ‘tiny little hands’…

And finally, just a little fact to bear in mind…
Yep that’s right, President Trump translates from American into English as President Fart.
Every single body that stood in the Women’s March made history.
No doubt that Donald and his new lapdog Piers Morgan were quaking behind their keyboards.
