LONDON -- As commuters boarded the London Underground on emerson college love and eroticismMonday morning, they were met with an arresting change from the usual adverts emblazoned on the carriage walls.

The typical ads had been replaced with posters drawing attention to cuts to women's services ahead of the Treasury's publication of its Autumn Statement.

Feminist activism group Sisters Uncut placed nearly 100 posters on Tube adverts across seven Underground lines, including the Jubilee, Victoria, Bakerloo, Piccadilly, Northern, Central and Overground lines.

Known as "subvertising," the move is intended to act as a form of real-world ad-blocking which repurposes external advertising in order to spread a message.

The posters called on Prime Minister Theresa May to deliver a strategic plan forall domestic violence survivors which will better support Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) people, migrants, people with disabilities, and LGBT+ people.

The ad-blocking came just one day after Sisters Uncut blocked bridges and set off smoke flares to protest the government's pledge to provide £20m of temporary funding for women's refuges for victims of domestic violence fleeing abuse -- a sum they say is insufficient.

Sisters Uncut released a statement last week stating that the government initiative was akin to "sticking plaster on a haemorrhage" and that the government was failing to secure funding for specialist services.

"The main thing is that we want the government to provide a secure funding plan that secures money for specialist services rather than temporary tiny pots of cash that anyone can bid for and doesn't guarantee support or safety for domestic violence survivors," a spokesperson for Sisters Uncut told Mashable.
