Moira Cameron, the first female Beefeater has been subject to a ”hate campaign” at the hands of several male Beefeaters. For those who don’t know, Beefeaters are the guards at the Tower of London.  Beefeaters have been exclusively male for 522 years and Moira Cameron’s presence has made several Beefeaters angry. They apparently defaced her uniform and left threatening notes in her locker. Two Beefeaters at the Tower of London have been suspended and a third is under investigation. A spokeswoman for Historic Royal Palaces, the body which manages the Tower, said on Monday Cameron would continue her duties while the internal investigation was carried out. An entry about her on the online encyclopedia Wikipedia was tampered with, but Moira is staying strong and will not let the bullying get to her.

Good for you, Moira..the Tower has a long history of keeping women down, that with the whole Henry VIII thing with you know, beheading his wives there.  With its rich history..I enjoy going to the Tower of London and even though going there is overpriced and it’s teaming with tourists..I am thinking of going there and giving  Moira some support.
